Accidental Cannibalism you say??
I am absolutely certain that this audiobook has completely spoiled me for any others. I definitely have to give credit to the Narrators of this audio book, Joe Arden and Lucy Rivers. So beautifully done.
Never did I anticipate becoming so captivated and thrilled by this book. The story revolves around Sloane and Rowan, two notorious serial killers who organize an annual murder competition. They meet every year to select and kill their chosen victim. The premise intrigued me so much that I couldn't imagine it being anything less than incredible. And I was right—it exceeded all my expectations.
"You'll love me someday~"
Sloane, known as the orb weaver or 'Blackbird,' unexpectedly finds herself locked in a cage, where she crosses paths with the charming yet dangerous Irishman, Rowan, also known as 'Butcher.' Rowan frees her and proposes a game that intrigues her, much like the man who sets the rules. Their attraction is intense, primal, and barely restrained. Together, they embark on a game of hunting targeted victims, focusing on the most dangerous monsters hiding in human guise.
But Will they be each other’s downfall, or are they simply a match made in hell, destined to carve out their own uniquely bloody, wildly eccentric, and strangely satisfying happily ever after?
“He’s Rowan,” Sloane says, gesturing at me again. Rose narrows her eyes as though this is insufficient information. “He’s my f-fr…boy. Guy. A man-guy. I’m…with. Here.” I snort a laugh as Rose’s face scrunches. “Man-guy,” I echo. “Real smooth, Blackbird.”
One thing keeping me from a 5 star is that I found Sloane's voice didn't quite align with her character, despite Lucy Rivers having a beautifully rich voice. Lucy exudes a bubbly and soft-spoken demeanor at times, whereas Sloane's character feels more brash and rough around the edges. This mismatch in vocal portrayal occasionally pulled me out of the story, as I expected Sloane's voice to reflect her gritty and assertive personality more closely."

I absolutely loved everything about this read. I laughed, I cringed, I had to stop eating a hard boiled egg whilst reading about eyes being plucked from their sockets. 10/10, all the gold stars, I can’t wait to see what book 2 & 3 bring!

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 intensemary_catherine's review against another edition
