Love & Other Killers by Brynne Weaver
5.0
dark emotional hopeful tense fast-paced

A wickedly fun, fast-paced ride you won’t want to miss!
This novella was such a treat, quick, chaotic, and absolutely delightful! For the best experience, I highly recommend reading Butcher & Blackbird first, since this story picks up with familiar faces from the Ruinous Love Trilogy, and you'll appreciate all the delicious callbacks even more.
Told entirely from Sloane’s POV (which, let’s be real, is iconic), we dive headfirst into the annual August Hunt, a bloody, hilarious tradition featuring your favorite morally questionable couples. This time, their target? Allan Munster. He raises chickens... and kills more than just them. Seriously.
Sloane’s inner monologue had me laughing out loud more than once,she’s sharp, chaotic, and endlessly entertaining. It also weaves in some perfect nods to the Scythe & Sparrow epilogue, while cleverly introducing the heroine of Tourist Season, linking the two series in a way that feels effortless and exciting.
From the spicy moments to the gasp-worthy twists, Brynne Weaver delivers everything. I was giggling, kicking my feet, and fully unhinged from start to finish.
