Need a book recommendation that makes you feel laugh, weird, and scared at the same time? Or specifically, you need a romance story that has a different taste. Let me represent you, Butcher and Blackbird. Yes, girls. I am the one who Fear Missing Out on this book. Look, people talk a lot about this one? It appeared everywhere. I should read it, right? *smiles*

This is a dark romance novel about two serial killers. Sloane and Rowan are rival murderers who develop a twisted friendship. They compete in an annual game to see who can kill the most evil people. As they travel and kill together, they find themselves falling in love.  This gory and suspenseful novel explores the dark side of love and humanity.

Listen, the story is not main plot driven. it's not having huge main conflicts, not that complex. it can be explained in short, they meet each other, keep in touch for four years, have fun together, are attracted to each other, then fall in love, come to some little problem, they're good, and married. Ups, I told you a lot, sorry. But, don't worry. Even if you got a spoiler, I think you can still love and enjoy this story so freaking much. Oh, this is how the serial killer proves romantic things. That's how they show their love. *screams* 

The main characters are so lovable, their tension was good. I enjoyed seeing the chemistry slowly appearing in them, not to be rushed, but still can get their romantic side. Rowan, you're so falling in love, right? If You're looking for a wife, I am in.

Accidental cannibalism?! Count me in. YES. I AM IN.
