About this listen
Whenever Terry Mangel's body acceptance revival meeting rolls into town, local diet execs and fat shamers turn up dead, often in grotesque, ironic ways. All single murders in small suburbs. No one's noticed a pattern, until rookie investigative reporter Camarin Torres takes a closer look.
Torres is a crusader against discrimination. She reluctantly accepts a job offered by handsome publisher Lyle Fletcher, a man with a vendetta, who sees the recent college grad as salvation for Trend, his fledgling fashion magazine. Torres, however, detests everything the publication stands for, and joins solely to transform its judgmental, objectifying content.
As an unexpected romance blossoms, the overconfident, justice-hungry reporter defies orders and infiltrates Mangel's world, only to find herself in the crosshairs of a vigilante group targeting the $60 billion diet industry. To this vindictive mob, murder is definitely worth the weight. But as Torres soon learns, unmasking the killer may save her life, but shatter her heart: Every clue seems to implicate Fletcher, her mercurial mentor and lover, as the group's mastermind.
Previously published as Slashing Mona Lisa.

Sexy, funny, thrilling
I thoroughly enjoyed Slashing Mona Lisa. A highly entertaining listen, it combines elements of romance with an engaging and at times thrilling mystery. Plus, I appreciated the book’s overall message of acceptance and the protagonist’s desire for social justice. I’ll definitely be listening to and/or reading more by D.M. Barr.

I tried but all I can say is blah
Maybe if you like pulpy eighties style slasher/comedies this book might be for you. For me, it was cringy and ridiculous. I tried to give it a chance, tried to like it but I just couldn't.
I will give credit where credit is due though, the narrator was okey and seemed to do her best with what she was given. So there's that.
