1 did NOT expect a book about serial killers to have me smiling, laughing, blushing and going “awwwww!!!" from beginning to end. I didn't expect a serial killer to become one of my book boyfriends. I didn't expect to want a serial killer to put his **** all up in me. I didn't expect to want to hug another serial killer so tight and let her know how special she really is. I didn't expect to have dreams about this book and I didn't expect to be so sad that this is over. But all that happened. I have only a couple of small issues with this book, but not enough to care or even mention. The main one, though, is that I just wish it was at least twice as long because OMG I was obsessed! The banter. The obsession. The slow build. The angst. The genuine love. The lust! The everything. I loved all of it. The gore didn't even bother me. I'm legit sad that it's over. I almost went right back to the beginning to reread it as soon as it was done. Not even joking. I wish I could read this like it was my first time over and over again. 😍😍😍
