How To…

When you think of a “How To” book, you think about…well, getting stuff done. Practical tips, helpful advice. But, with the new book How to Be Bad arriving soon at the library [including a possible visit from authors E. Lockhart, Lauren Myracle and Sarah Mlynowski (!)], we’ve noticed a “How To” trend that takes things to, well, extremes! Other books in this not-quite collection:
