Murder for the Modern Girl by Kendall Kulper
5.0

A vigilante mindreader who murders men who abuse women and a shape shifting genius who is trying to find answers to his condition collide in this fun and romantic story filled with action, murder, romance, and the glitz and glam of 1928 Chicago. Ruby has a passion for justice and an extensive knowledge of poison, she dreams about being a lawyer... but in a town where men can easily escape with their sins and Ruby is determined to help the women get their own justice. When she meets a mysterious but brilliant boy at the morgue she discovers that he is actually hunting down her murders. It doesn’t help that he is so sweet and shy and just good. Ruby finds herself falling for the one person she shouldn’t be falling for, but when she uncovers his own secret she has to find a way to balance her feelings for him and getting him to not discover her secret identity while helping her take down the people who are trying to kill her family. This was such a fantastic read! I adored Ruby and Peter so much. Peter was an absolute sweetheart and Ruby was everything I could ever want in a protagonist. I loved the setting and the feel of the world, honestly READ THIS BOOK IT IS FANTASTIC! The romance is sweet and the mystery is fun.
