Hello fellow Monsters of Verity fans.

I'm working on rewriting This Savage Song from the alternating first-person points of view of Kate and August, maybe even a bit of the other characters (Harker, Sloan, Leo, Henry, Ilsa). I'm very busy so it may take a while but if you enjoy reading it I'll try to post more chapters.

The second thing I'm working on is a story called The Catalysts. It's from the perspective of each of the four Flynn Sunais about their catalyst and the events leading up the their deaths and subsequent reincarnations. Basically a series of five one-shots.

I planned to release them in order of who became Sunais first: Leo, Ilsa, August, and Soro. But I'm having trouble finding what exactly Leo's Catalyst was. I think it had something to do with Leo being a member of a cult and throwing themselves and their families off a building because to them the Phenomenon signaled the end but I could have it totally wrong. I'm re-reading the book right now but if anyone knows Leo's catalyst please tell me.

“The perfectly good car comes with a perfectly dangerous girl.”

“You also live. You don’t spend every day wondering why you exist,but don’t feel real, why you look human, but can’t be. You don’t do everything you can to be a good person only to have it constantly thrown in your face that you’re not a person at all.”

“It's a monster's world.”

“t was amazing how easy it was to think in straight lines when he was in motion, even without his violin.”

“Even if surviving wasn't simple, or easy, or fair.

Even if he could never be human.

He wanted the chance to matter.

He wanted to live.”

“Good and bad were weak words. Monsters didn’t care about intentions or ideals. The facts were simple. The South was chaos. The North was order. It was an order bought and paid for with blood and fear, but order all the same.”

“That pendant may protect you from the monsters, but it won’t protect you from me.”

“People are users. It's a universal truth. Use them, or they'll use you.”

“She'd seen a documentary once, on cult leaders, and the traits that made them so effective. One of the most important features was a commanding presence. Too many people thought that meant being loud, but in truth, it meant someone who didn't need to be loud. Someone who could command an audience without ever raising their voice.”

“But there was something else, too, a strange excitement at the idea of playing normal, and every time he tried to untangle how he felt, he just ended up in knots.”

This savage song

Fantasy

⭐️⭐️⭐️

Struggled to get into this I found the world, creatures and politics very confusing and hard to follow so I didn't really fully understand the plot. I did enjoy the characters and liked reading about them. I will read book 2 but i didn't really feel the need for a second book, so not sure where it will go.
