The writing was great and easily kept me engaged. It was dark, gory, but also lighthearted and funny.

I tried to read this book two months ago, but I could not get into the story (maybe because of my mood at that time). My friend told me to listen to the audiobook, so I did (and I do not regret it).  

Honestly, I do not know what to think about this book. 
A love story between two serial killers (who, both, kill serial killers) is a great idea. In practise, I felt like it was lacking a bit. However, I did enjoy the love story and tension between the main characters. What I enjoyed most was probably the found family aspect of this book. 

In summary, it's a very light, cute love story (which sometimes felt weird and indecent, because it literally talks about cannibalism, paedophilia and murder).

This book is so much fun. It has near perfect pacing between building sexual tension and embracing smut. The characters are extremely lovable and the banter is hilarious. The language surrounding the intimate scenes is a bit coarse for my taste, hence the -0.25, but the story tugs at your heart, makes you laugh, and has you falling in love with the most unlikely of characters.
