Book: Our Monstrous Hearts by Delilah Thorne
Reviewed by Weird | weird.reads.books
Rating: 4/5
If you treat trigger warnings like a shopping list, have I got a book for you. This novella packs horror, romance, and erotica into a little over 120 pages, and you’ll end up wanting more by the time you hit the last page. I read it in one sitting and enjoyed just about every second of it.
We follow Cassandra, who is living in a waking nightmare, let down by every person in her life who should love and cherish her. When she crosses paths with the Monster, she finally learns her worth and is worshiped like a goddess. When the reckoning comes, it’s incredibly satisfying to watch her feminine rage unleashed.
Let’s be for real here: this is monster erotica with plenty of spice, and I absolutely adored it. The Monster is a vampyre with more Nosferatu allure than Edward Cullen. He unapologetically eats people but worships Cassandra instantly. Their relationship accelerates quickly because of the novella length, and I found myself craving even more time with them.
If you’re looking for a quick, smutty monster romance stuffed with content warnings, give Our Monstrous Hearts a read.
Thank you to Tales & Teacups and Delilah Thorne for the eARC. All opinions are my own.
