One sitting. That's how quick I read this book. I am obsessed! This book is so dark and, even though I'm going to sound a bit psychotic myself here, the characters are surprisingly relatable, which is something that isn't always present withing romance books. I've got a feeling this book is going to leave me with a massive book hangover. But now I need more serial killer recs! Book 2, here I come.
