I haven’t had this much fun reading a book in a long time. The banter was the best I’ve ever read. I was smiling at my kindle like an imbecile every few lines.

I found everything in the content warnings done in a lighthearted way so nothing in this book bothered me. But definitely check the content warnings because they’re first of all funny to read but also kinda intense

The audiobook is very entertaining. The last 25% of this is pure smut. Loved their relationship.

I will never look at cookies and cream ice cream the same ever again. 5/5🌶️

FIILLLTHYYYYY! But in a good way. Probably not for everyone, but if you read the content warnings on the first page and go “ooh! Fun!!!” It’s probably for you.

i don’t usually add content warnings to my reviews but i felt like i had to with this book.. 

but it was funny at times? and kind of cringe, but wholesome. 

i am aware that butcher and blackbird choose to kill ’bad’ people, often serial killers.. but don’t they realise that they are just as bad? 
they seem to think that killing a ’bad’ person is them doing a favor to the world. well they need help
