Review: Friends With The Monsters by Albany Walker

Friends With The Monsters Friends With The Monsters by Albany Walker
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Weirdly Endearing

This book is strange and captivating. There is a lot of mystery involved revolving around the MFC, Damiana who lives by herself in a huge expensive house in the middle of nowhere. The only companions she has are monsters that visit her in the night. They are, and have always been, her only friends. Even as a child she scared her parents and was sent away to boarding school very young, and she never saw her very wealthy parents again.

We don’t know what kind of supernatural creature Damiana is, but we do know that she feeds on sins. Though she has her monster friends she is still isolated and lonely. She doesn’t trust easily after being cast away by her parents. Then one day a severely injured man turns up in her house. Instead of attacking him, she feels herself drawn to him and needs to help. This is the start of a brand new adventure, when she must learn to trust others.

There is a lot left unsaid by the end of the book. There is a bit of a cliffhanger, but it didn’t leave me screaming in frustration. It’s at times funny, weird, dark and sexy. It’s definitely an enjoyable read, and I’ll be looking out for a new book when it comes out.
