Monster in My Closet by R.L. Naquin

5.0

What a nice surprise Monster In My Closet was! I loved the mix of adventure and quirky sense of humor. Zoey has quickly become one of my favorite heroines ever! I mean, how could she not since the first glimpse we get of her she is ready to protect herself with nothing less than a toilet brush. Not to mention her utter geekiness and over-the-top-but-lovable sense of style.

Monster In My Closet gives us a delightful host of side characters that stole my heart. We get not only the closet monster Maurice and the awesome brownie Molly, but also a hag, a skunk ape, a reaper, an incubus, a pygmy dragon and many more fascinating creatures.

Zoey is a wedding planner and an empath that stumbles into a Hidden world she had never imagined existed. Not only that, her mother was also aware of that world and her disappearance when Zoey was 8 years old, becomes an even bigger mystery.

There is a little bit of romance, but enough to let us know that the seednhas been planted and we should expect more.
I loved how Monster In My Closet didn’t take itself too seriously, but at the same time was adventurous and suspenseful enough to draw me in until the very last page.

R.L. Naquin has just won a fan in me and I guarantee that I will be following this delicious new series very closely.
