new favourite author alert!!! that was amazing!!! oh my god!!! literally can’t believe this was lily mayne’s debut novel. ♥️

i absolutely love dystopian novels, but i don’t think i have ever read any that had actual monsters in it. i’m actually quite a noob when it comes to fantasy and paranormal creatures of any kind. but this sounded amazing from the blurb alone, so i couldn’t resist checking it out. i really liked the world the author has created and i hope we get to see more of it in the sequels. absolutely loved the characters too.

danny was such a cute guy, who stayed optimistic, even though he’s had such a hard life. i liked him from the very beginning.

wyn (the soul eater 👀), who’s basically a near immortal, insanely powerful monster and is feared by all humans was so achingly sweet, compassionate and kind. the way he called danny “my sweet human”… my heart burst every single time. he was also so shy, sometimes insecure & adorable at times omg…🥺

the way their relationship progressed was so lovely to witness. they just felt like straight up soulmates to me.

“i love you.” his voice shook the tiniest amount, making my heart swell too big for my chest. “more than anything in this universe. but you can’t tell anyone.” 🤣♥️

also… i just gotta say this… who would have thought human/monster sex could be so hot??? i swear i almost disintegrated multiple times from the HEAT these two brought on to me. i was NOT prepared for this level of hotness.

we also got to meet the monster called edin in this book, who has been a friend of wyn’s for roughly five thousand years…🤣 edin was a great character and i can’t wait to read his book to find out more about him. he was so cocky and funny, but also super sweet. he already stole my heart tbh.

SO glad i read this. straight up gonna buy anything this author releases in the future without even reading the blurbs.

MarianR Fab review!! 🤩🤩 I had no idea this ones her debut novel! But omg it sounds cute and sexy and what I need in my life. I feel like I will love it. 🥰
Also I've heard that the second one has a different vibe. But I hope it works for you! 🤞🏻

rhubooks Will deffo check this out!!


Candy M. Ok, now I need to read this WAY sooner than expected 🥴 You had me at adorable monster (the "my sweet human" is literally the cutest ever) and then when you mentioned hot monster sex? To kindle I go. Plus, seriously, there's way too few post apocalyptic books in the genre, so the premise alone is enough to interest me. Amazing review, Nark, and hoping you love the sequel just as much! Will definitely keep an eye on your take when that happens 👀


~✿ Tala✿~ Ok your review sold me🤩! and yay for discovering a new fave author, love that!

Preeti Awesome review, Nark, too am a noob to paranormal so thanks for a new recommendation. And, I too love dystopian so I am reading it for sure.😇😇

Alec ⚣ I was very intrigued with the premise, still am, but I had a hard time adjusting to the writing style, and the infodump at the start didn't help, so I postponed. Anyway. Glad you enjoyed it. Great review, by the way.<3

he was SO sweet, you have no idea! he was described as this scary ass mofo, but then you very quickly realise he's quite mushy on the inside. you previously mentioned the interesting anatomy to me and i can definitely confirm it was VERY interesting! 🤣🤣 thanks, candy! ♥
