My Review:

 

Desperate to save her treehouse and the forest, Millie May Moth and her brother kidnap scientist Dr. Horus Mills, never realizing love is in the air. Can she stop the destruction of her home without giving her heart to Horus? Marrying My Moth Lady is a humorous monster romance that is pure enjoyment. Marilyn Barr pens a romance with a hero dealing with health disorder that is accurately portrayed. The environmental theme brings to light the dangers of our forests but without being preachy or shoving it down readers’ throats. The descriptive narration is flawless and draws the reader in. The romance is monster romance with a few tropes thrown in. If you love grumpy/sunshine, forced proximity, monster/human love, and a few more fun tropes, you will absolutely find Marrying My Moth Lady unputdownable, like me.

 

Marilyn Barr is one of my favorite authors, especially when it comes to monster romance. She writes from the heart and her characters will make you feel every emotion. Her characters are flawed, struggle with life in general, not your typical beautiful people characters, and are honest. Marilyn Barr talks about their flaws with no holding back and I can’t get enough. Her characters embrace their individuality and find the ones who love them wholeheartedly.

 

The plot is engaging with a tight cast of characters, tension galore, adventure at every turn, and plenty of romance. The plot progression is well executed and brilliantly written. I honestly couldn’t put it down. Go and read it for yourself. You can thank me later.

 

My Rating: 5++ stars
