this was cute! which is probably a weird thing to say about this book, but it was a very fun and quick read. i was surprisingly not as squicked out as i thought i’d be given some of the content warnings at the beginning, but of course, your mileage may vary depending on your personal sensibilities. if reading extreme violence and gore aren’t your thing, don’t read this - but if that’s something you can handle and you’re okay with the premise of this book, then please do give it a read. and while I did think this was a fast read, the ending was a little bit rushed, so be prepared for that, though it's still a fairly satisfying conclusion.

 “It’s all fun and games until someone loses an eye, and then that’s when the real fun begins.” Imagine Dexter as a rom-com with a healthy dose of smut, and you’ve got Butcher & Blackbird. It’s dark, twisted, and yet somehow incredibly fun. This book surprised me in the best way possible! Sloane and Rowan are serial killers, but somehow, they’re also completely adorable—and yes, I can’t believe I’m calling serial killers "adorable." The characters are so well-written that you end up relating to them in ways you never expected.

The book is packed with fantastic descriptions, sharp humor, and unforgettable moments. That said, it comes with all the trigger warnings. It doesn’t shy away from tough topics, but if you can handle them, it’s an unforgettable ride. Highly recommend for fans of dark romance and unconventional storytelling!

I really liked this - especially the audiobook version, it was narrated well. While weird I liked the relationships and the overall tropes. The banter was cute, the additional characters were great and I will never eat a beef nicoise salad.

Highly recommend Reader should read the 2 pages of warnings before beginning, it's at the front of the novel and easy to find

Good read for fans of horror, extreme violence, anti-heros, slasher novels, psychopaths, sociopaths, serial killers, dark romance stories of vengeance, torture, light BDSM, smut, rough sex, sprinkled with wit and dark humour. 

Reads like a Christmas Hallmark movie for violent  serial killers/ psychopaths/ sociopaths
