Thank you to Netgalley and Hodder & Staughton for an eARC of this book.
In the sequel to 'Only a Monster' we met Joan again. After reseting the timeline in order to save her family, she now has to deal with her former love interest Nick, having no memory of each other, among many other unexpected anomalies in this timeline.
As fate would have it, Joan and Nick are thrust together again as Joan finds herself in grave danger from other monsters; including her former friend, Aaron, who like Nick has no recollection of their history together.
I really enjoyed how Len dealt with the complexities of time travel and having memories of people they don't have of you.
Really looking forward to the final book in the trilogy.
I'd recommend this for fans of Shadowhunters and The Book Eaters.
