Woaaaah interesting read. The FMC is taken from her life and ends up in a cell and becomes a part of the experiment. So is it smutty? Yeah it definitely is BUT I wasn’t rolling my eyes as I normally would. It’s got some pretty dark theming in there where the smut actually makes sense. On to the next
How many insta lust can you put in a book with so much bad writing? I don’t understand why the author decided to use short sentences without commas but it is annoying as hell.
And where does the 3,92* comes from? How can so many people give this book an overall of 3,92* Is it the insta lust? The many bad written sex scenes or a they new with the smut romances? Because there are many books out there that are better written and have way better insta lust scenes than this book. Just saying..
The writing felt like AI, and nothing was explained. There was no world-building and no explanation, at least for the FMC's past. She was captured and then just went along with it. Who does that? She didn't even ask one question or demand some answers from the people who were examining her or dragging her from cell to lab and back to another cell... 🙄🙄
Unsure whether I liked this book, I didn't love it didn't hate it, have lots of questioned that weren't answered in it. But be warned it ends on a cliffhanger. She is kidnapped and drugged which then sends her into heat, and she has sex with monsters. What is not made clear in this book is why her, why is she different. the story is all about being locked in a lab where every time she has sex with a monster she is then taken away for medical tests. I want to know what happens next so I will read the next one, just hoping its not a trilogy.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
I'm actually quite torn on this; i *really* liked the characters, the writing style, & the overall concept. But - even though you sort of figure out what's happening - nothing is ever 100% explained, so you don't REALLY know what's going on... & she just accepted the fact that she was kidnapped & this is her new life right away?! Why wasnt she asking ANY questions to ANYbody? Why wasn't she demanding answers? ....all that being said, though, i did really enjoy it & i'm kind of mad the next book isn't already available on KU so i can read it immediately.
3.5⭐️ I’m on the fence with this one. While the plot sounded good, it didn’t execute it fully. I was a little lost since there was really no background about any of them. What was the purpose of all of this? The spice was good. All of the main characters were great. This just felt more surface level. I wish there had been more depth and description. I’m still debating if I want to read the next one…
I should give this book 3 stars FOR ENDING ON A CLIFFHANGER!
Oh, my. I am so upset that this freaking awesome book ends in a cliffhanger. The only reason that I am not punching holes in the wall and flipping the kitchen table over with dinner still on it is because the next book comes out in a few days...
Seriously though...what a fabulous book. I saw a FB ad and immediately downloaded it. Best decision of my life.
Kidnapped by people for reasons unknown. Thrown into a prison with monsters. Experimented on, clinically evaluated and then, thrown into the same cells as the monsters. Thanks Texa, I really enjoyed reading this story and hope I don't have long to wait to read more.
I loved this hot story about Jen who is captured and put into a cage inside a facility. She learns she is not the only prisoner and is slowly introduced to her cell mates. It appears they are all being experimented on and the end result is Jen becoming pregnant. But luckily, reinforcements are on their way.
Not sure how to feel about this book. I wanted to like it. But it was really boring. The pieces were there, they just didn’t really fit. You’re just waiting the whole book for something to happen. Maybe book two will be better?
its an interesting premise but the writing is stiff on purpose. author thinks. thinks that writing like this has more impact. impact to the listener. but it just is disconnecting. especially when the story kicks off. shes held in lab with others they expermint on
The perfect book that allows you to just turn your brain off, couch rot, and enjoy the smutty ride.
I took a star off because the amount of times I had to read “wrecked” was driving me nuts. A few other adjectives would have helped make the sentiment not feel so repetitive.
Well, beginning of the book I liked but then didn't know how a monster on the other side of the wall was going to help her. Or maybe I just couldn't get into it. got to 38%.
Marked by the Monsters was a fun, easy monster romance read that kept me entertained, but it didn’t completely wow me. The premise hooked me right away, and I loved the variety of monster love interests and the protective, possessive energy throughout the story.
The romance and spice were enjoyable, and the fast-paced plot made it easy to fly through. However, I found myself wishing for more character development and deeper relationship building. With so many characters involved, some connections felt rushed, making it harder to become fully invested emotionally.
That being said, if you’re looking for a quick paranormal romance with fated mates, monster MMCs, and plenty of “she’s ours” energy, this one is still worth picking up.
Overall: An entertaining monster romance with a fun concept and plenty of spice, but I wanted more depth from both the characters and relationships. Still a solid read for monster romance fans. 📚✨
