Hooked in the beginning, but lost some interest towards the end. Loved the idea for the book and the characters were very lovable. Almost wished the murder aspect of the book was played into a little more. It wasn’t equal parts, mostly romance, which might have been better for the demographic.

HAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHHH
this book was soooooooooooooo unhinged and I was absolutely here for it!

highly recommended for the kinky straight people

With the whole David twist, I imagined being a serial killer in this universe and getting stressed leading up to August in case the Butcher & Blackbird come after me! I love the vision of all the criminals being SO stressed while this lovey-dovey couple is just skipping through a field of flowers, swinging their blades around and leaving a trail of blood and dead bodies behind them.

Also, you could absolutely replace Sloane with Celaena and Rowan with, well, Rowan and this would make perfect sense to me.
