The Butcher and the Wren by Alaina Urquhart
2.0
Unfortunately, this was a DNF at about 75%. I was trying to power through, but the story felt YA with “fuck” & bloody scenes thrown into it. The one pop-culture reference after another got old really quickly & all of the references to famous killers didn’t add to the story only took away from it. Very repetitive.
I really wanted to love this - I loved morbid for a long time, but the banter lately it’s so over the top that it’s gotten difficult to listen to, so I think that tainted reading as well.
1.5 stars for the effort as I do think Alaina had a great concept, just struggled to execute well.
