dark funny

A super fun read but also had far more packed into it than just a silly little monster romance. There was some super interesting social commentary combined with this whole conversation around how the humans seemed to be more monstrous than the actual monster was and whether or not being born a monster was enough to become an actual monster. Also I really appreciated the sapphic and asexual rep we got from this book.

Somehow this ended up being the cutest romance I've read in a long time, even amongst all the bloodshed and gore. They both worked so hard to help each other grow and learn and  be healthier people. 

On top of that, Shesheshen was such an amazing character. Her design was amazing as well as her personality and growth.
