What in the hell did I just read?! Mayhem and Minnie is EXACTLY what this book sounds like.
Don’t go into this thinking this is going to be a serious tale. Keep your expectations low and just ride this ride. This is absolutely anything but. This is outrageously funny, dark, with a hint of kink.
It’s very rare when I can have all my emotions in one sitting. Laughter, disgust, concern. This is also solely told from the male perspective (albeit a serial killing psychopath of a perspective) and it really does bring this whole tale together. If it wasn’t I wouldn’t have enjoyed how quirky and odd this was.
You’ve got Marlowe he’s manic like manic manic. The OCD is OCDing. Delulu and confufu. He’s our not so friendly neighborhood neurotic serial killer. And quite a torturous one at that. But there’s something about Marlowe that makes me quite fond of him. In this…I’m going to lock you in your room so I can sleep soundly at night type of way.
Then you’ve got Minnie an oddball dumpster diving homeless girl. She’s just as perplexing as Marlowe. Stage five clinger and jealous as hell. Oh and she has rap sheet. We’ve got some real winners here. These two are both perfectly unhinged and meant for each other. UNHINGED I SAY! These are those people.
And as repulsive as Marlowe finds Minnie at times, he develops a murderous possessive obsession with her filled with love and desire. Leaving her treats like a cat leaves their human pet parent rats. Marlowe does his best to show just how much he truly loves his Minnie.
This couple is actually quite adorable and entertaining. Reading through their antics with each other is just absolutely hilarious. Absurd? Concerning? Absolutely.
