How to Kill Men and Get Away With It by Katy Brent

3.5

dark emotional funny tense slow-paced

Plot or Character Driven: Character

Strong character development: No

Loveable characters: No

Diverse cast of characters: Yes

Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

---

It reads like a sassy rom com mashed together with horror comedy, using an unlikable narrator with understandable motivations as glue. It drags a bit in the second half, but wrapped it up well.
