Chasing the Moon
Chasing the Moon | A. Lee Martinez
7 posts | 14 read | 7 to read
Unspeakable horrors threaten the earth in this fantastic new comic fantasy from the author of Divine Misfortune. Diana's life was in a rut - she hated her job, she was perpetually single, and she needed a place to live. But then the perfect apartment came along. It seemed too good to be true - because it was. The apartment was already inhabited - by monsters. Vom the Hungering was the first to greet Diana and to warn her that his sole purpose in life was to eat everything in his path. This poses a problem for Diana since she's in his path...and is forbidden from ever leaving the apartment. It turns out though that there are older and more ancient monstrous entities afoot - ones who want to devour the moon and destroy the world as we know it. Can Diana, Vom, and the other horrors stop this from happening? Maybe if they can get Vom to stop eating everything...and everyone.

It was ok. Kind of odd. The book didn't really have much conflict or much of a villain. What conflict there was didn't happen until like the last 10 pages and it didn't have too much build up.

It had a Lovecraftian horror theme mixed with a goofy sort of humor. The book is about a normal human lady who gets sucked into a world of weirdness and she tries to navigate and learn. Then the last 10 pages happen. It was cute. Not all that boring. 3/5 ⭐

Clare-Dragonfly “Not all that boring”—high praise 😂 4y

While this isn‘t my favorite of Martinez‘s novels, I did have a fun time listening to this one! The monsters are great and it‘s certainly an original read! I think this one would be the perfect set-up for a TV show! It‘s a lot of fun! #AudioColoring

It was a good book...3 stars. But not as good as his other ones. I like the idea that there is more to our reality then we know or perceive.

Different realities bleeding into one another makes for a fantastic setting. Add a mixed cast of humans and monsters, and you get a fun and strange story that could easily be made into an anime. (I would totally watch that anime!) I was a bit skeptical at the start, but, I quickly found myself immersed, intrigued, and entertained. A combination of slice of life and sci-fi fantasy, this turned out to be a surprisingly great read.

A very silly book that is also kind of about finding meaning in a world you can't ever fully understand.
