Only a Monster

Only a Monster

The sweeping romance of Passenger meets the dark fantasy edge of This Savage Song in this stunning contemporary fantasy debut from Vanessa Len, where the line between monster and hero is razor thin.

Don’t forget the rule. No one can know what you are. What we are. You must never tell anyone about monsters.

Joan has just learned the truth: her family are monsters, with terrifying, hidden powers.

And the cute boy at work isn’t just a boy: he’s a legendary monster slayer, who will do anything to destroy her family.

To save herself and her family, Joan will have to do what she fears most: embrace her own monstrousness. Because in this story…she is not the hero.

Dive deep into the world of Only a Monster: hidden worlds dwell in the shadows, beautiful monsters with untold powers walk among humans, and secrets are the most powerful weapon of all.

Jag hade så höga förväntningar efter att ha läst såååå många positiva recensioner om den på goodreads och Instagram. Men jag fick aldrig någon riktig connection till karaktärerna. Och storyn kändes liksom ofärdig på något sätt. Det är en cool story på många sätt, den hade såå mycket potential men det kändes som att den aldrig riktigt tog fart. Den föll tyvärr ganska platt för mig vilket är en sådan besvikelse. Coolt koncept men med ett ganska dåligt resultat tyvärr.
