This was fun fun fun. It reminded me somewhat of Bella Mackie’s “How to Kill Your Family” in that the protagonist was a largely unlikeable character with a traumatic past who murders people who, in her eyes, deserve it. And to her credit they are bad men. I’ve read a lot of fiction over the past couple of years in which a woman is taking revenge on awful men, so the formula felt pretty familiar to me, but I liked the addition of her husband and I liked that we got chapters from his perspective as well. I had a good time with this! It’s quick and good if you’re in the mood for something with a little bite.

I loved the idea of a former serial killer element to this book, it had that overall feel that worked with what I was hoping for. The characters had that element that I wanted and enjoyed going on this journey. It had that humor element and it worked with the mystery element. Asia Mackay has a great writing style and I wanted to read more.

Thank you so much NetGalley & Random House Publishing Group - Ballantine | Bantam for allowing me access to this eBook! I read it immediately when I got the email and I got swept off my feet with the first chapter OMG!

In A Serial Killer's Guide to Marriage we follow two former vigilante serial killers, Hazel and Fox who struggle to bury their past and adapt to a life of domesticity. Hazel, which was my favorite character between the two, finds herself suffocating in the mundanity of motherhood, craving the thrill of her former life killing bad men. Fox, on the other hand, has taken to fatherhood with meticulous ease—until Hazel acts on her murderous urges without him, throwing their carefully constructed facade into chaos.
Honestly, I had an amazing time with this book which I read in almost one setting, I just could not put it down! I recommend it to anyone who wants to read a fast pace thriller!

SO GOOD.

It gave me Mr. And Mrs. Smith vibes all the way and just the deadpan humor throughout tied this up for me. I have been really enjoying these types of books lately and I am pleased to say that this did not disappoint in any way.
