This series is like if you and your friends were cracking extreme jokes poking fun of the morally gray romantic lead trope and someone compiled it into an actual story. Somehow this book manages to be extremely sweet while also describing disembodied heads hanging from rafters and flesh melting off bones. An absolute raucous delight.
