Autopsy of a Fairytale by Nicole Scarano
4.0
Beauty & the Beast meets Criminal Minds in this small town serial killer murder mystery!
After being viciously attacked on the job, Homicide Detective Isobel ‘Bel’ Emerson moves to the small town of Bajka in the hopes of living a simple, quiet life.
Only death seems to have followed her, and a string of bodies turned into household objects start to pile up around town with all signs pointing to the towns newest member—Eamon Stone.
Bel can’t help but find herself drawn to the dangerously handsome and reclusive millionaire, and she fears that he may be the very evil terrorizing the town in the hopes of getting his hands on her.
As a lover of murder shows and fairytales, Autopsy of a Fairytale hooked me from the first gruesome murder, and I could not put this down. & that ending left me hyped for book 2!

“𝐈𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐚 𝐝𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐈’𝐝 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩,” 𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐮𝐫𝐦𝐮𝐫𝐞𝐝, “𝐢𝐭’𝐝 𝐛𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮.”
“𝐌𝐲 𝐛𝐨𝐝𝐲, 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐚𝐫,” 𝐬𝐡𝐞 𝐨𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐝.
I’ll be honest, I was nervous when I saw this was described as Caraval meets Throne of the Fallen, cause ya girl DNF both of those 😅
BUT HOLY FUCK YALL!!!
Phantasma was eerie and atmospheric, and was absolutely fantastic from beginning to end—didn’t hurt that Blackwell was Draco coded and an absolute dreamboat either 😉
Also the OCD representation in this was well done!
- necromancer + phantom
- deadly competition
- forbidden romance
- forced proximity
- morally grey characters
- instalove/instalust
The Big Game by Cassie Connor
2.5
This wasn't really my cup of tea. Lily and Tate's characters felt underdeveloped and came across very juvenile for people in their late 20s/early 30s. Plus the plot was a bit OTT lol
Overall it wasn't the worst, but it could have been better.

Remy was truly diabolical 🤣
She wanted her twin brother’s girlfriend so bad, and did just about anything to have her. Not that Fauna played too hard to get 😜
I honestly didn’t know what to expect, but sWitch was spicy, fun, and all around a good time.
- twin brother’s gf
- alternative masc + cottagecore femme
- opposites attract
- cheating, sorta
