If you liked the show "Dexter," then you might like this book.  Two serial killers who only target "bad" serial killers get together.  The book is very funny, and there is lots of sex.  I can see why it's a TikTok favorite.  The author nicely gives you a two-page warning of content triggers at the beginning of the book, so you can decide if this is something you'd want to read.  I found it entertaining, but I tend to like the macabre.

  When two serial killers who kill evil people meet and fall in love, things get...messy.
   Well, thank f*ck for the content warnings at the beginning, though to be honest, they partly got me to read this book as I was intrigued. This was my first dark romance, and it was a ride! I liked this book's mix of funny and disturbing, which probably says something about me.
    The writing was a bit too descriptive at certain points for my ability to visualize things vividly, so be warned if you can also create very vivid pictures in your mind while you listen!
  Overall it was enjoyable if a bit graphic and I mostly liked the main characters! I cannot wait to read the next book in the series!

 Narrator Rating- 5 stars
     Both narrators did an excellent job! You could tell they put production money into the audiobook!

 

Elemental Levels:  Heartfelt-4/5   Horror-3/5   Love aka Romance-4/5   Predictability-3/5   Spice-3.5/5 Tear- 3/5  Thrill-1.5/5  Humor-1/5
