Someone You Can Build a Nest In by John Wiswell

4.0

Such an interesting story! Shesheshen is a shapeshifting monster that’s awoken early from hibernation by monster hunters. She eats one and chases off the rest, and heads out to town to remind the townsfolk that she’s a scary monster. On the way, she meets Homily, and is immediately enamored. She finds out that Homily believes her family has been cursed by the monster in the area, and joins the hunt to find and kill the monster until she can figure out how to break the curse and get the girl. 

I’ve never read a book like this! It’s hard to say what genre it is. There’s romance, action, mystery, and some horror elements (some of the depictions of violence are a bit gruesome). I definitely did not see most of the book coming!
