This probably will not come as a shock to you, but I freaking love monsters. So much.So.freaking.much.(I'm trying this new thing where I swear less, but know that I really want to swear in regards to how much I adore all those creepy little things that go bump in the night... Except spiders. Spiders can go straight to the fiery pits.)Spiders aside, when I got the e-mail from Netgalley offering "Club Monstrosity" I jumped all over it.Okay... maybe my reaction was "huh, book about Monsters in a self help group. Could be good, could be terribad. Eh... why the heck not?"Let me tell you, it is not terribad.It's not even sort of bad.Actually, it nailed it.Assuming that "it" is "a quirky novel about monsters struggling to adapt to modern society while staying below the radar to avoid pitch fork mafias" or "an interesting supernatural mystery involving some of the better known movie monsters who aren't getting as much love in modern media" or "a cute little monster romance."So really, it nailed its.It's got an awesome premise, some truly fantastic characters and is a fun and fast read involving monsters and more than a little quirk. If you enjoy tongue and cheek paranormal, you should be reading this book.4.5 stars
