A review by grayhawksbookshelf
Love in the Time of Serial Killers by Alicia Thompson

2.0

This book had a great premise. The FMC is named Pheobe and she is obsessed with true crime. Her dad died, she goes and moves into his house to get it ready to sell over the summer and has a fling with the neighbor, Sam. At every corner, Pheobe sabotages her relationship with Sam and poor Sam is just given back and forths on why she wants him, but why she can't love him and it lasts throughout the book until the last like 10 pages. We don't even see a beautiful display of change and growth from our main FMC. She is very "woe is me" and doesn't realize it's her own actions. This book was hard to struggle through. But I loved it for the FMCs brother and Sam.
