⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ / 🌶️🌶️

The Queen of Monsters is the second book in The Tarrassian Saga. The books are interconnected standalones, so they don’t have to be read in a certain order.

I haven’t read the first book in the series, but it didn’t affect my reading experience, and I was able to catch on fairly easily with what was going on and who the characters were.

The book is told from two points of view: the FMC, Natalia, who is a human from Earth, and the MMC, Tannon, who is Tarrassian. The dual POV storytelling fits the plot nicely.

At the beginning, I was a bit annoyed with Natalia and found her to be quite childish, but I started to like her more towards the end of the book. Both Tannon and Natalia had difficult and dark pasts, which affected them as characters, their relationship, and their decisions.

I really enjoyed Leo as a character. He seemed really interesting, and I would love to learn more about him.

The plot was easy to follow, focusing mostly on the relationship development and dynamics between the FMC and MMC. The pacing was quite slow at times without being too slow and/or boring.

The writing style might not be for everyone, but I personally didn’t have issues with it, other than it being a bit repetitive at times. For example, Natalia uses the word "monster" quite often, especially at the beginning of the book. Also, the size difference between the FMC and MMC was mentioned often.

Overall an interesting and sweet alien romance with a complex world and a well-deserved HEA. I’m interested in reading the other books in the series.



I received an ARC of this book and I am voluntarily leaving a review. Receiving ARC didn’t affect my opinion of the book.
