Questo è un audiolibro scandaloso, scorretto, immorale. Ma strategico. Una specie di "Principe" di Machiavelli a uso delle donne. Un ascolto di estremo realismo sentimentale. Scritto con lo stile inconfondibile che ha fatto di Giulio Cesare Giacobbe lo psicologo più amato dai lettori italiani. "Come diventare bella, ricca e stronza" rivela per la prima volta alle donne cosa vogliono veramente gli uomini da loro. Cosa gli interessa, cosa gli piace. E di conseguenza cosa bisogna fare per accalappiarsene uno. Magari sposarlo. E, ovviamente, spennarlo.

I, on the other hand, make pumpkin cupcakes, spend my Friday nights curled up with a beloved romance novel, and long to be kissed in the rain. Owen is my best friend's older, off-limits brother and the only boy I ever thought I loved.
