πŸ’€πŸ“š Book Review with a Twist πŸ’˜πŸ΄

Book Title: Butcher and Blackbird

Author: Brynne Weaver

Genre: Paranormal Romance / Dark Comedy

Spice Level: 🌢️🌢️🌢️ (Three out of five jalapeΓ±os—steamy with a side of sizzle, but not so spicy you’ll need a fire extinguisher.)

My Feelings About This Book:

  • ☑ WILL READ AGAIN

  • ☑ MY NEW FAVORITE BOOK

  • ☐ MUST READ FOR EVERYONE

  • ☑ VERY DARKLY FUNNY

  • ☐ REGRET READING (Yeah, right. Never happening.)

  • ☑ EXTREMELY ADDICTIVE


Long Story Short:
What happens when a charmingly psychotic hitman falls for a sassy, sharp-witted cannibal chef? Absolute chaos, that's what. This book is a deliciously twisted take on love, laced with murder, humor, and mouthwatering descriptions of… well, unconventional cuisine. Brynne Weaver serves up a recipe that's part Dexter, part Mr. and Mrs. Smith, and all heart (and maybe a few dismembered limbs).


Best Moments:

  • When the Butcher and Blackbird team up for a “date night” that involves taking down a mob boss.

  • Their bickering over the ethics of eating their victims—romantic dinner debates have never been so spicy.

  • The surprise soft moments where you realize they might actually be the most functional (dysfunctional) couple ever.


Worst Moments:

  • Trying to explain the plot to someone without them giving you that look.

  • Running out of pages because it’s SO GOOD and ends way too soon.


Favorite Quotes:

  • “If you’re going to kill someone, at least do it with a little flair. It’s called presentation.”

  • “You love me because I’m dangerous.” / “No, I love you despite the fact that you leave bloody handprints everywhere.”

  • “Some people bond over Netflix. We bond over murder sprees. Same thing, really.”


Main characters of Butcher and Blackbird by Brynne Weaver are:

  • Reagan “Blackbird” Moon: A cannibal chef with a sharp wit and a penchant for chaos.

  • Soren “Butcher” Woods: A hitman with a dark charm and a talent for, well, butchery.


Overall Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐.5

Final Thoughts:
This book is a rollercoaster of morally questionable fun. Think of it as a romantic comedy if the protagonists were more likely to share handcuffs and alibis than love letters. If you enjoy your humor dark, your romance spicy, and your characters unapologetically chaotic, Butcher and Blackbird is your next obsession.
