What in the Thumbelina was that?! Lol. I seriously had troubles figuring out what size everyone & everything was, relative to each other 🤣 which made for an interesting relationship, as i'm sure you could guess. Spoiler alert: it's rather unsatisfying. However it was a cute, little quirky palate cleanser. The insta-love was a little "woah" at times & there's maybe a bit too much trying to happen in the plot for such a small book, but I didn't dislike it.

This is a very fun, cozy monster romance! I really loved the symbolism behind the two MCs being drastically different species (a human and a giant) and how they navigated assumed barriers to their relationship because of their differences. Equal parts steamy and heartwarming, this book made me interested in more from the same series! Also, I’m just never getting over the cooing!!

Man, where’s that kombucha girl reaction clip when you need it. 

This was such a weird mix of things I was surprisingly into and things I was very not and they come at you fast, so you get a sort of horny/cringe whiplash. I was very distracted for most of the story trying to figure out exactly what the size difference was, which I never really felt confident that I had a handle on. It was sweet with a lot of “instinct” based interactions that I didn’t really mind and some possessiveness that managed to stay cute instead of dangerous. 

I’m probably going to read the next one because I am curious about some of the world building and damnit if the erotica isn’t intriguing even when it’s a little off-putting at random intervals.

I can't believe I say this, but the size difference was a bit too much for me to the point I could barely imagine them. The spicy scenes felt like parodies because of it. But otherwise, it was really good. The characters were loveable, and the story was good.
