- Plot- or character-driven? Character
- Strong character development? Yes
- Loveable characters? It's complicated
3.5
As I have never before read a book from this genre (dark rom-com) I can not judge it within the genre but I can say that this book made me interested in exploring the genre more.
A sometimes blushing man who fell first and harder that not only tells you that he would kill for you but actually does kill for you...sign me up.
And her being a shy, smart and really talented serial killer too...I love it.
I really liked her as the fMC and how the gore-y scenes were detailled and the author cared about the setting (the really disgusting parts also being the funniest).
I just would have enjoyed to read more of them keeping in contact with each other during the times they were apart because the author *tells* us how they talked everyday and learned a lot about each other but as these parts were not *shown* the reader is not up-to-date with there relationship (as in how it progressed) but still on the page of how it was it the scene 6 months before the next.
Spice(quality&quantity):
4/5
Quite detailed and the characters worked really well together. Also there is variety and especially his POV was goood.
