3.0

Its... I really liked parts of it. But truly they did not feel like serial killers. They felt like two regular people with regular jobs who SOMETIMES murder other killers. And as fun as it was the kills are too short. The time jumps are lazy writing. And a lot of the like "gotchas" were... boring. 

I respect the author for trying to make a serial killer romance but they need to be less insecure and more murdery. And also like don't just copy Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Hannibal. It's unimaginative and boring. The best part was the cannibalism at the end but even then you don't get enough "why" like where's my lengthy villian speech?
