Wow this went downhill so fast. I can't believe this has sat on my tbr for this long just for me to give up after 3 chapters.

I can see why it’s popular, but very fast paced and the leads are obviously attractive and fall deeply for each other. Cute, but no actual development on the romance aside from pining and then straight to sex after the big climax.

Uggh this read was amazing. Rowan had me ready to risk it all! 😩

This is a love story between two vigilante serial unalivers so, obviously, you're going to be dealing with pretty dark themes. Ensure to check the content warnings to make sure you're okay with what you're getting yourself into. The MCs have major issues and tragic pasts but this is honestly one of the cutest love stories I've ever read. Yes, there are triggers and it'll probably be a while before you can eat Cookies & Cream icecream again but it's so worth it to experience the beautiful chaos that is Butcher & Blackbird.  ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

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
