How Not to Court Your Human Captive
by A.K. Caggiano
emotional
hopeful
medium-paced
I’m a really big fan of Villains & Virtues, so I was super excited for Caggiano to do a cozy monster romance series but I have to admit I didn’t love it.
The main thing was her humor was almost totally missing from it :( while the story deals w some heavier subject matter as part of the FMC’s backstory, it’s not a central plotline and I think it actually did a bit of a disservice for my reading experience to help 1. Ease up from the heavier topics and 2. Just make the story fun and lively!
I found the second half more enjoyable than the first when the romance really kicked into gear. If you enjoy grumpy x grumpy dynamic where they both help heal each other, you will enjoy this! It was fun to get a little IPB vibes from Caggiano and the bedroom dynamics were a bit diff than typical romance 😈
I’m hoping I enjoy book 3 and see more of Caggiano’s much-missed signature humor 🖤
Note: the TWs for assault are not involving the MMC nor on page, they are part of the fmc’s backstory
