This book offers the reader hope and a chance at adventure. Missy has lived all her life as a sick girl who is on her death bed while Charlie, a monster, can't help but fall in love with her despite her ailment. On the day that she's supposed to die, he offered her a chance to have a good time and forget about her death.They were inadvertently bound when they kissed. When she died, he felt like he was also dying. The truth is, because he is now bound to a human, it has made him weak. The only way that he could regain his strength and power is for her to become a monster. Her quests would bring her to lots of unforeseen danger but she's willing to do anything as sacrifice to Charlie, the only friend she's know. It would also cement their bond.Well-written, the book offers a glimpse into a different kind of monster world where monsters aren't always scary. It also offers hope, hope embodied by Missy who turned from a sickly, dying girl into a brave hero. This book tugs at your heartstrings and makes you fall in love all over again. Liss Thomas is an excellent writer, that's for sure.For a more detailed review, read my post here: [...]Disclosure: I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review.
