Pick of the Week: Only a Monster by Vanessa Len

Katie needed something of a pallete cleanser after our attempted monster romance a while ago, and settled on "Only a Monster" by Vanessa Len. While Jordan isn't convinced (read: at all), we hope readers might find a fun, light YA fantasy romance right up their alley.
