Held by a Monster by Kenzie Kelly, Kenzie Kelly

3.0

This was a fun book! I liked the monsters; I love the image of a bunch of giant monsters picking away at a keyboard on a laptop in a cave, lol.
I did have some questions about the story. I wasn't sure how I felt about the MCs getting together so fast, and it seemed like there were times she was so into him and then times when she was questioning, so I wasn't sure about them. I do like how cute and cuddly/protective he was.
I love a big old softie killer monster. The other monsters in the group are so cute, and I hope that in the next books, we learn more about them and that they find their mates.
I was not a fan of the first intimate scene between characters as the consent just wasn't great to me; it wasn't CNC; I just felt like her consent was not enthusiastic. It was more like, well, why not go ahead? It is definitely a fast burn!
Overall I did enjoy this read and even with my questions and one scene that I wasn't a fan of it was a good read! The monsters were monstrous but had the biggest hearts and I'm excited for more in this universe!
