Loved the love interest, Aaron, was minorly annoyed by the FMC for most of story, also feel like the book is way longer than it needed to be, but over all enjoyable. Loved the narrator.

Love love love. This book was phenomenal, especially as an audiobook! I both couldn't get enough of this story and at the same time parts were hard to listen to, bringing up dinner painful memories. Definitely check content warnings; there's a lot of heavy stuff.

Thank you to NetGalley for an ALC.
I was intrigued by this true crime novel since I have lived in Baltimore City since early 2011. The story is a compelling deep dive into just one part of a complicated situation many cities face. I learned a lot while listening to this book, and heard some things that I experiences small portions of first hand. The narrator is extremely engaging. I recommend this audiobook, especially if you enjoy listening to true crime podcasts.

I've seen this book around bookstagram, and when I saw that it was available to "listen now" on NetGalley, I had to jump on the bandwagon! I was pleasantly surprised! What a fun, outrageous tale that is filled with heart! Never did I think my reading journey would bring me to dinosaur erotica, but here we are! And I'm happy to be here! If you're looking for something quick and fun that doesn't take itself seriously, this is for you! Definitely recommend it on audio!
