They're back. The monsters from Club Monstrosity still have issues. They've also added to their group, Patrick (Cthulhu) is along for the ride this time. Oh and Natalie's father's assistant Igor is in town too.This time around there's little time for their own run of the mill work or relationship or make-up issues. Monsters are trending. Not so trendy, though. Oh, no -- there's still a mob like mentality surrounding the monsters, it's just a little different this time around. The digital world has finally caught up with them. YouTube and Twitter are all abuzz after a video surfaces showing someone, or something, tearing a man apart. The exposure is extra disheartening to Natalie as this creature, it's like her. That makes it her brother, right? She's not alone.It quickly becomes clear that the Van Hellsings are involved. But they don't seem to be the only issue. What about Hyde? Why does Alec seem to be having wolfy issue when it's not his time of the month? Why is Linda not acting like her usual weepy self? As things start to get dicy, the monsters start to get suspicious of one another but they'll have to figure out how to work together if they want to survive the Van Helsings... not to mention the internet.I gave the first book 3/5 stars. This book is actually a little better than the first, which tends to be rare in a series. I'd call this one 3.5-4 stars. It still feels like the author is trying a little too hard to be funny at times. Overall a decent followup. I'm actually looking forward to the next book.* Disclaimer: I received this book at no cost in order to review it. I offered no guarantee of a positive review, though I only request books I think I'll like because why read a book you think you'll hate?
