Very entertaining
Serial Killer Games by Kate Posey was a fun and entertaining read. It was different than anything I have read before.
The main characters were so much fun. There are lots of laughs in the story. Jake and Delores are very interesting characters. This was a fun and fast read. I highly recommend it.

Serial Killer Games is not about killing
How I loved this book. The title is so wonderfully true and misleading at the same time - but you'd have to read the book to fully understand what my cryptic comment means.
Dolores dela Cruz wants nothing but to be left alone.
She finds a hidden away office in her large mega-corporation and accomplishes her goal until Jack Ripper shows up. Dolores is a little odd in that she is fascinated by serial killers and is always looking to spot one "in the wild". Jack is her number one candidate and high jinks ensue. Turns out Jack has his own quirks and interesting sense of humor and before you know it, he and Dolores are disposing of a body together (it's not what you think, you really need to read the book).
Full of humor, poignancy and a rollicking good read. Everyone would enjoy this one.

Totally Unexpected
This novel is so enjoyable. Kate Posey is the master of misdirection. It is so hard to review this book without giving away any of the amazing surprises that she reveals along the way. Unique, enjoyable, unforgettable.
One of my favorite books of the year! I was so surprised and a bit sad to see that this was a debut novel. I can't imagine anyone not liking this book. Thanks to Bookbrowse and Netgalley for letting me preview this book.
I expect it to be a huge hit and I will be recommending it to all of my reading friends. I can't wait to read it with my book club.

Delightful Surprise
Kate Posey's first novel is a wonderfully original mystery/romance/comedy that kept me engaged and delightfully surprised until the end. In a genre that can be trite, and in which authors can get bogged down in old tropes, Posey's take is fresh and compelling. Highly recommend.

What A Surprise!
This book completely surprised me. I went in blind (as I usually do), but I obviously had some assumptions based on the cover & title. It started out in one direction and then flipped the script, but I so enjoyed it. I couldn't put it down.

Keep 'em guessing!
Thought I knew how this would go and then, slam, another way. Great twists and turns of suspense and getting to "dissect" the characters. lol. Deliciously suspenseful and entertaining. Ending is superb and unexpected. Just take the author's hand and follow the delightful journey.

Quirky, fun read
The two main characters here may have been the oddest I've come across in a while. But that was what made this a really fun read. I just had no idea what these two were going to do next! From strange workplace encounters to unusual outings to a trip to Vegas, they continually surprised me and each other. After all of the excitement, the latter
part of the story was heartwarming and sweet. Maybe a tad predictable, but by then I wanted a happy ending for these two characters that I'd been rooting for.
