Product description

From Amazon

Deep down, every woman wants to be a Bad Girl. But after living a life of sweetness and light, it's sometimes difficult to stray from the path. Cameron Tuttle (author of the riotously funny Bad Girl's Guide to the Open Road) points the way in The Bad Girl's Guide to Getting What You Want. Tuttle offers up tips to help even the saintliest soul find her inner Bad Girl--and then use that power to get better dates (date yourself for a while first, until you're ready to dive in the dating pool); a better job (don't just settle for job satisfaction, aim for "job jubilation, job nirvana, job titillation"); and better parking (pray to Gladys, the universal parking goddess). With its sassy, iced-lavender cover--just the right size to slip into your purse--the Guide is jam-packed with practical and not-so-practical-but-funny advice, including excellent answers to one of life's most pressing questions: What do you do with old bridesmaid dresses? "Drench with ketchup and dress up as Carrie for Halloween"; "Sew into board bags for your snowboard and surfboard"; and, best of all, "Make your bridesmaids wear them in your wedding." Remember: it's great to be a girl, but it's even better to be a Bad Girl. --Sunny "Bad Girl" Delaney

A must for every bad girl

Reviewed in Canada on September 13, 2002

I can not recommend this book highly enough. It covers it all from your relationships, to your career, your friendships and your social life.
It is packed full of, "What to do with..." lists. For example, what do you do with your boss's business cards? Simple. Write, "Nice job, idiot" on the back and place them under the windshield wipers of badly parked cars. (I find this also works quite well with the business cards of ex-boyfriends...)
It also gives wonderful advice on how to deal with very tricky situations. For example, if you find yourself on the first date from hell, or you encounter a man at a club who simply will not leave you alone and won't take no for an answer, the solution is simple. Simply lean across the table, look deep into his eyes and say, "I'm so glad we've met. I think you would make a wonderful father for my hyperactive, disabled son."
This is an absolutely hilarious read that will keep you thoroughly entertained while offering some great advice for those of us who are bad, or simply dream of being. I also highly recommend "The Bad Girl's Guide To The Open Road," and "The Bad Girl's Guide To The Party Life."

how much do I LOVE LOVE LOVE this book?

Reviewed in Canada on February 11, 2004

Let's start out by saying that if you are aiming to manipulate people and step on others on your way to the top of the ladder, this isn't a guide book. But maybe you need it anyway because you should LOOSEN UP! The Bad Girl's Guide is all about finding what you REALLY want as opposed to what society dictates. It's about loving life, living large, and going after your desires with passion and no regrets. It's an inspiration to take on the world with a mischevious grin and not care when you mis-spell mischevious (like myself). It's viewing your life with the rose-colored glasses everyone should have, because nothing is as bad as it seems. Except a Bad Girl, of course! Indulge in a bubble bath, recline with the book, and rediscover why it's so fun to be a Bad Girl.

Over-the-Top Humor, great emotional lift

Reviewed in Canada on April 4, 2003

Okay, so some of the suggestions are a little crazy and would never work in the real world. Then again, no one reads Spiderman comic and decides to try to spin spider webs. THis is one of those books that, if you are having a bad day, you can read, get a laugh and feel moderately better. Some of it is actually helpful, should you decide to do it, and some is just plain silly. You'll actually have to use the ol' grey matter to decide which is which. (Don't worry, it won't be that hard.)
Read if you: get into Saturday Night Live humor, like woman-power laughs, have ever had one of "those days" and need a good laugh
Don't read if you: don't get into the ultra-feminism attitude (that's okay, you don't have to), don't enjoy Seinfeld or SNL, etc., want a serious help book (this really isn't serious)

Reviewed in Canada on October 3, 2002

Slim as this book is, it's actually two books mixed up in each other. They're both good books, worth reading. Sometimes, however, you won't know which one a given page or paragraph belongs to.
The first book is a humorous look at some of the many gutsy, outrageous things you've probably always wanted to do - whether or not you knew it. It includes amusing advice on how to exploit your feminine wiles to score everything from free drinks to free office supplies. It's easy-to-read and nicely illustrated and is good for at least a few laughs.
The second book is a bit of serious advice for the woman who has spent her life fulfilling other people's needs and ignoring her own. The party line: wise up, toughen up, kick your insecurities to the curb, and start getting what you want from life - even if requires extreme measures.
The book becomes confusing when the author brings humor to her serious advice, and the question arises as to what we're meant to take seriously and what we're not. I'm sure the line about stealing other people's drinks with a two-foot straw was a joke. I hope the section about dating yourself before you find a boyfriend - learning to love and indulge yourself - was serious. I'm not sure what to think about the page devoted to getting men to buy you drinks through various forms of flirtation and deception.
Regardless, this much is true of "The Bad Girl's Guide To Getting What You Want": it's funny. It might make you think, it might confuse you, it might make you roll your eyes at the obviousness of its message. But it's funny.

Lovely, and Funny.... If you get it

Reviewed in Canada on June 17, 2002

You either get Cameron Tuttle's books and her brand of humor or you don't, Personally I love her books. The Bad Girl's Guide To Getting What You Want, is my favorite of hers. There's good solid advice, but theres also tons of fun and badness without making you want to puke in the book.
This book isn't supposed to be a survival guide, it's supposed to help you realize what you want and then show you that you've got all that you need right in your bad girl self.The book does this by covering major aspects of life clarifying them with humor and showing you different ways to get through [bad] stuff- Like job interviews. Overall I think this book is great for anyone who goes at a life with a sense of humor but not really for those who are looking for a new spiritual outlook or some sort revelation on what it is to be a woman.

Fuuuunn and perfect for when you're in a bad mood!

Reviewed in Canada on April 1, 2004

This book was incredibly spontaneous. It makes you laugh like crazy and you can actually take most of the advice given. No, the advice isn't spiritual or what it takes to be a woman.. it's just a lot of fun and it helps you bring the goodness and childhood out of you. You responsibly decide what advice you'd prefer to take [though A LOT tend to be very jokeful, and not actually serious]. It's a cute book you can read if you just need a getaway from actually being responsible and serious 24/7.

Reviewed in Canada on April 4, 2003

This "Bad Girl's Guide" book was just less than slightly entertaining - The title implies the book might be a helpful "guide", when in fact it is simply full of ridiculous lists. Some parts of the book were actually quite humorous, while the content was lacking - Just don't expect to get anything out of it except a couple of laughs.

AWFUL and childish.

Reviewed in Germany on May 13, 2018

This book encourages you to be either a sloppy drunk, or a lying, thieving, sex driven, woman. If you're a "good" girl you suck, if you get men to buy you things and you steal TP from the office, make out with colleagues and have sex with strangers you're the bad girl this author wants you to be. Have fun with it. I am sorry to have to say that I paid for this....

My girl friends and I had a field day with this book. Our dorm room was packed with all of us trying to answer the questions at the same time. It is an awesome book to open yourself up to your other side. If you lack confidence get this book. It helped me a great deal.

口語も多いので楽しみにながら読めるし、なぜか元気がでてくる本なので
めいった時に読むようにしてます。
何度も何度も読んでいるのですが、毎回読むたびに理解力がUPしてるのか？年齢のせいで経験値が増えたのか
感じ方が違うのがまた面白いです。
かなりの年月持っている本なのですが洋書をよむきっかけをつくってくれたCameronのシリーズは宝物だったりします。

This book is so cute. It's really all about being bold and unapologetic about what you want in life and kind of mischievous. I wouldn't take all the advice, but some of it is good! And of course funny as can be!

I am not a bad girl, but I do find some nice girls toxic and dull. This book has a few good points, but bad is fun if it's somebody else. I laughed out loud.
