Instant 5-star read. Profoundly funny and comically deep, this story surprised me in so many ways. Someone You Can Build a Nest In isn't the type of story you'd imagine when you hear about a monster romance, but it's one that I will recommend forever.
Our protagonist, Shesheshen, brings a uniquely just perspective to the lives of the humans she's all-too-eager to consume. When she meets Homily, we get to see how someone can love a person who doesn't have the strength to love themselves and she teaches us that generosity can be a symptom as much as a virtue.
