Woah, that synopsis really doesn’t come close to describing the insanity in this book! I’m going to be purposefully vague in this post because this book needs to be experienced and the best way of going into this is with no expectations

I thought the book had an interesting premise in the beginning. It’s fantasy grounded (poor word choice) in realistic human emotion. I felt for the main character and what she was experiencing. But then the book hits a certain spot and soars into apocalyptic speculative horror with a mix of stunning revelations and events

Not everything in this book worked for me (some awkward moments and dialogue, etc), and I felt like it could have used more meticulous world building. But to be fair it’s going from a single person waking from a tragic accident to an epic war between species in less than 130 pages. I promise if you read this book it’s not one that you will soon forget!

I don't think I've ever been quite this astounded by a horror story. Being a long time horror fan, and a fan of shows such as Hannibal, you would think that I have seen it all, and nothing would shock me. Well, it turns out that's not the case. Vicki Beautiful left me gobsmacked.

I can't go into much detail about the story itself without spoiling it for others so I'll just say that this short novella kept me reading from page one. The reason. Well, when a horror story starts out all sunshine and flowers, you know you're in for it. Now don't get me wrong...it's not a scary read. However, it does question human nature and what we would be willing to do for those we love. And, of course, the big question at the end that everyone will be asking themselves...that's what stayed in the back of my mind the entire time.

Vicki Beautiful is definitely a must-read if you can stomach some, shall I say, grossness. Luckily, I'm brave when it comes to horror. Otherwise, I might have missed this one. I can't wait to read what Canon publishes next!

(I received an eBook copy of this book in exchange for an honest review)
