A review by nclcaitlin
Butcher & Blackbird by Brynne Weaver
2.5
Sloane is a killer who kills other serial killers and is rescued by Rowan - a fellow killer of killers - from a cage three days without coffee, food, and picturing the maggots from the corpse across from her as marching orzo pasta.
The audiobook:
- Dual perspectives
- Sound effects
- Rowan’s narrator is Irish!
Despite this being a confident serial killer romance, there is such depth and tragedy behind the characters.
“I didn’t gouge them out, Butcher. I plucked them. Delicately. Like a lady.”
If you are scared about the spice like I was, it only starts at 67% so it really isn’t a smit focused book! And it is also realllly easy to skip!
However, after that point, I have to say most of the plot was just them banging, soooo….
I can see why it has fished popularity and I really enjoyed the witty banter and back-and-forth. Unfortunately, when the spicy scenes took over, it really took over and lost most of the allure for me.
It was a three star until about the 70% mark.
