Wow! I LOVED this book! It was cute and funny and had me sitting on the edge of my seat! I want more!! This book caught me totally off guard with how much I loved it, it was so different to what I was expecting and I didn’t want it to end!

Our main characters are so well-written! I never thought I could love two serial killers, and yet here we are! Their chemistry is insane and their banter had me giggling like a little girl! 

The storyline was engaging and the book was very easy to read! The comedy throughout the book made it very hard to put down and I *devoured* this book in no time at all! I also love how the writing seamlessly transitioned from a gorey scene, to a spicy scene, to a cutesy-romantic scene. It didn’t feel forced or rushed, it all flowed together and it made reading so enjoyable! I cannot fully express how much I adored this book! 

Also, Cookies and Cream was my favourite flavour of ice cream before reading this book, and now I’m not sure I’ll ever look at it the same way again! Totally worth it though!

I would definitely recommend reading this book along with the playlist that can be found at the beginning. I’ve never read a book while listening to music before and I’m so glad that I did this time, because the playlist added so many emotions and enhanced my connection to the book and its characters. Once again (just to make sure you understand)… I absolutely love this book!
