How to Bind a Monster

Well hello there new favorite book.

Not sure if it’s a “microtrope” or genre or trope but I love heat and heart in books. That perfect blend of character depth AND spice.

J De Saint takes Kaito through it! From being a live wire in need of direction and true companionship and understanding. He needed someone to see what he needed and provide it in a safe and loving place.

I could read a full length novel like this, the journey of an angry brat to an understood brat is a favorite of mine.

This book is a delightfully quick read but with a full 4character arc.

Oh and hey… it’s both super spicy and bloody.

Just, utter perfection this book.

For a comp… if you read Roe Horvat and wanted it a bit darker than.. try this book!

"He stayed quiet most of the time, eyes focused, mouth tight, until he finished, stepped back, and said that I would look beautiful fully tied.
That word punched right through me.
Beautiful. Not hot. Not fucked up.
Beautiful.
Fuck. I’m not someone who blushes. I don’t fucking blush. But I did that day. My whole face burning, ears hot, and I didn’t say shit because I didn’t know what to say to that. It hit somewhere wrong and deep, and I couldn’t dig it out even after the ropes were gone."

A mighty punch in a small package

I quite enjoyed the story J. was able to create in so little pages. The trust, obedience, and surrender they were able to form was beautiful to witness. A perfect yin & yang. Shibari is such an elegant & peaceful practice and J handled it with such care.

Super dark & intense, which is what I was looking for. Even though its the kind of story where its hard to connect w/ an MC like Kai, I was totally invested in his relationship w/ Nao-san, their building of trust & learning how to submit. And fascinated w/ shibari (rope binding).

This was intense. I mean so much was packed into this. There’s a whole gang plot happening all while we dive into Kaito’s journey in bondage. It’s dark and raw like damn. That was a hella good read.
