"Monster" by A. Lee Martinez

This was a hilarious book. Well-written and funny.

Unlike so many books, didn't bog down so much in the middle that you skip to the end to see what happened and just get it over with.

In a world where magic is all around us, but we can't see it once become adults because that part of our brain dies off, "Monster" goes around saving cryptobiological monsters, because it's his job.

And Judy, the supermarket stocker who contends with a Yeti eating all the ice cream in the freezer, decides she could have a better life being a monster-trapper too.

This was a funny and charming book.

Moo!
