3.0

I tried to read this book two months ago, but I could not get into the story (maybe because of my mood at that time). My friend told me to listen to the audiobook, so I did (and I do not regret it).  

Honestly, I do not know what to think about this book. 
A love story between two serial killers (who, both, kill serial killers) is a great idea. In practise, I felt like it was lacking a bit. However, I did enjoy the love story and tension between the main characters. What I enjoyed most was probably the found family aspect of this book. 

In summary, it's a very light, cute love story (which sometimes felt weird and indecent, because it literally talks about cannibalism, paedophilia and murder).
