Monster Crush is the tale of a young woman falling in love for the first time – with a Sasquatch. Told in the form of Twitter posts between two authors, it is incredibly unique and fun to read.

This was one of the most unique short stories I have ever read. Actually, it’s one of the most unique stories I’ve ever read period. Originally, this story was a twitter feed. And it is written as such – both Banks and Laybourne write their 140 character part and the tale is slowly spun.

I liked this story – it features the sasquatch after all. And somebody falling in love with him. And it’s just generally cute and simple. I like a good love story. And the unique way in which it’s told. And the great storyline all worked beautifully together to create a fantastic canvas upon which this journey can be taken.
