per my spreadsheet:
i was afraid to listen to this, for good reason, but also ... yes. 

listen to it. I don't love Joe Arden, but this book was a masterpiece to listen to.

spice 🌶  - a 4 🌶  spicy (romance.io scale)
length - just right
reading speed - read in 4 days
did it make me cry? - some how, yes.

Super duper fun! I thought the narrators did a great job, and I think it was a great intro to the duet style of audiobook narration. (Somehow my first???) I really enjoyed the good communication and directness and lack of drama between the two main characters (minus one moment, but that kind of made sense lol).

Listen, this is a no thoughts just vibes book. I think it's a total beach read. I had a good time, it was a quick read, and it made me cry a little bit. But it's also definitely gross so it's not everyone's vibe

So incredibly bad which was so surprising to me seeing all the raving views I expected so much more. It read like 2013 wattpad fiction the dialogue feels like it was written by a pre-pubescent child. I couldn’t stomach going any further with it. The name orb weaver was enough for me to put this book down. It reminded me of 2013 wattpad and Harry’s green orbs staring at me

I didn't expect to be giggling and crying over a serial killer romance, but this was a delightful, easy read despite it's dark and gritty content.

I didn’t want to like this book, but the audio narration was impeccable. Loved the banter and background noises to make it more realistic. Some of it was hard to listen to (especially when I was trying to eat) but it definitely sucked me in.
