Q: If you could have any super power, what would it be?. I love this gorgeous #Fairyloot edition of #OnlyAMonster - swipe to see the sprayed edges, foil hardcover, and beautiful artwork on the inside front and back covers! Only A Monster took me by surprise – I didn’t know what to expect going into this. Joan is a monster. What does that mean, you ask? Her entire family are “monsters” and there are other families who are also monsters – they all have hidden powers. Each family has their own magical power they’re known for, but all monsters have one thing in common – and its not good news for regular “humans”. I will say this book had a fantasy element I loved, but didn’t expect this book to have. I don’t want to spoil it, as I found it to be a great reveal to both me and Joan. You see, Joan is half human, half monster, so her monster family wasn’t sure if she would even show monster powers, hence them never telling her about it until….well, until it was necessary. There is a love triangle in this book, and I love a good love triangle. Joan works with Nick at historic Holland House and she clearly has a crush on him. When Nick turns out to be a monster slayer, Joan….still has a crush on him, and I feel you Joan, sometimes the heart wants what the heart wants. But when she has to go on the run with Aaron Oliver, someone whose family hates Joan’s family, she discovers maybe Aaron doesn’t hate her just because of her family name. When Joan saves his life, Aaron feels he owes Joan a debt – they end up becoming friends out of necessity at first, but then because they don’t mind being in each others company. This story was fast paced and once I started I couldn't stop reading, I needed to know what happened next. #AlltheBooksMar22 - Beautiful books #BombBooks2022 - This means war #novelebookreads - Best villains #bookishconlifemar22 - Cover change #booknookbingo - Debut novel #FairyPhoto58 #VanessaLen #BookBox #SubscriptionBox #Bookish #Bookworm #Bookstagram #BookLover #BookNerd #YAFantasy #FairyLootMonsters #boostingya #YASFF #AsianAuthors #DebutAuthors #DiverseBooks #WeNeedDiverseBooks https://www.instagram.com/p/Ca438cSLYNR/?utm_medium=tumblr
