👀 Did you know that about 80% of people abandon their New Year resolutions by February? 😮 That is why we are excited to share some releases coming out this month to reinvigorate your motivation to smash those reading goals:
Just JJ’s top pick:
Title:Â Only a Monster
Author:Â Vanessa Len
Genre:Â Fantasy, Young Adult
First impression:Â A monster vs hero tale from the perspective of the monster – this should be interesting!
Joan is determined to have a great summer. She may be staying with her late mother’s eccentric family in London, but she has a nerdy job she loves and a date with her cute co-worker Nick. But her dream of the perfect summer unravels when she learns that her family are not just eccentric, but monsters with terrifying powers. And because bad things come in pairs, Joan also finds out that her crush Nick is a legendary monster slayer looking to bring down her family. To save herself and her family, Joan will have to embrace her monstrousness and outsmart the hero.
