Kaitlyn‘s review of Butcher & Blackbird, Ruinous Love Trilogy, Book 1) by Brynne Weaver
Romantic Suspense Comedy published by Zando – Slowburn 23 Oct 23

First off, let me say it’s pretty hard to rattle me. I’ve spent a lot of time with cadavers. (This is way less weird when I mention I have a master’s in anatomy and sometimes help with medical school gross anatomy courses – lol) So it’s pretty hard to gross me out, but there are a few times in this book where even I was like “oh my 🤢🤮” 😂

That being said, this is a positively delightful book. It’s a light, fun, friends-to lovers-romantic comedy – that just also happens to have very gruesome and graphic torture scenes. But I love it. Like a lot. It worries me how much I enjoyed this book. 😂

I can’t wait for the next in the series this summer. Based off who it’ll be about, I can already tell I’ll love it too. If you need a funny serial killer romcom in your life, definitely read this book. But be prepared to be grossed out by the ice cream part. 💀😂

Grade: A

Summary:


“I want to ruin her so that she’s mine, my beautiful disaster. My wild creature. My goddess of chaos.”

The viral TikTok friends-to-lovers dark romantic comedy full of murder, chaos, and sizzling chemistry—unlike anything you’ve read before—now available in all bookstores

When a chance encounter sparks an unlikely bond between rival murderers Sloane and Rowan, they find something elusive—the friendship of two like-minded, pitch-black souls who just happen to enjoy killing other serial killers.

From small-town West Virginia to upscale California, and from downtown Boston to rural Texas, the two hunters collide in an annual game of blood and suffering, one that pits them against the most dangerous monsters in the country.

But as their friendship develops into something more, the restless ghosts left in their wake are only a few steps behind, ready to claim more than just their newfound love.

Can Rowan and Sloane dig themselves out of a game of graves?
Or have they finally met their match?
