Have you gotten your ticket? I have never in my life been so jealous of fictional characters. The Monsters Ball is a fantasy world unlike any before. Each year just keeps getting better. Add in the fact that it is a bunch of authors being able to write interconnected stories together and well take my money.
Eternal Magic 5/5
What would you do for eternal magic? This was my favorite story of the book. It may be because it’s the first I read or maybe because there are two dangerous characters playing a wicked game? Who will win?
As You Wish 5/5
Ok if Eternal Magic wasn’t my favorite, As You Wish would be. I mean this story is u like any other I have read. Have you every wondered what happens when you ask a genie for unlimited wishes? You are about to find out!
Twisted Tides 5/5
An underwater princess just trying to enjoy a night out? At a ball being attended by a sworn enemy? This just spells disaster. A beautiful disaster you should be reading.
Shade of Danger 5/5
Another interesting story. If you like a little mystery with a lot of heat, well this one is for you. Add in the uniqueness of the characters and well give me more.
The Banshee Song 5/5
I think I was most excited about this one. Banshee’s remind me of Teen Wolf so I was excited to read it. I was not disappointed. I liked reading the way the author told the story of the Banshee!
The Black Rose 5/5
Yess! The point of view in this story was just what I needed. It read so well. It was different than most, but it really freaking worked for me. The story was great and the was it was written really got me. It made me want to find more books written similarly.
Lost Imprint 5/5
This book was unique in the fact that the story’s setting is a bit different from the others. I liked the story and characters. I dont wanna say much more for fear of giving something away, but this was refreshing and what the anthology really needed.
Agents of Night 5/5
Out of all the stories, this is the one that made me laugh the most. I really enjoyed the humor in the story. It was perfect for me.
Royal Blood 5/5
This one enticed me with its name, but it wasnt the hit I hoped for. I enjoyed the story well enough, but I felt something was missing for me personally.
Turning the Tides 5/5
What an interesting story. I loved the pairing in this story. This author did s great job making me want more from her. The writing style was great and made me want to know which the heck wrote this!
From the Shadows 5/5
Ahh Rexton. He is probably my favorite in the entire anthology. I really liked his banter and protectiveness. His whole personality made this story for me.
Spies like Us 5/5
Yet another one that I was I tested in before we got here. I was wondering when we would find out what this MC was up to. I liked this story and the mystery in it. It was a great story
Assassins Match 5/5
All the love for this one. This was such a great story. I honestly forgot it was just a novella. The way the author was able to draw you in and make you lose track of time and pages made this feel like a full length novel. I cannot wait to find out more about this author.
Year 2 was my year for sure. I loved each and every story that I read. Each were unique and left me panting for more. With year 2 in the books, I am dying for year 3!
After loving last years Monster Ball I was super excited for Year 2’s ball. This anthology is filled by some brilliant authors who have worked together flawlessly to bring us this collection of stories.
What I love about anthologies is that you get to meet some new to you authors that you can fast become fans of but what makes this one different is you don’t know who has written each novella as that has not been revealed yet as its initially a blind release.
Each novella features different main characters but they are all interconnected with the same secondary characters and brief glimpse of the main ones.
Each novella is griping and I honestly can’t say any are my favourites over the others as each one brings you something different and I can’t wait for the reveal of who wrote what and see what future books they bring out as the only critism I have is that these novella’s aren’t long enough! They have left me happy and wanting more.
I am keeping my fingers crossed for a Year 3 release next year as this is one Anthology that is a must read.
