Week 49 Review: Never a Hero

From Goodreads:

Joan has saved her family and reset the timeline. Now, Nick is just an ordinary boy and Aaron is again her enemy. But Joan must find a way to re-gather her old allies when the real threat returns – the woman who created Nick. Eleanor, the most dangerous member of the Monster Court.

As the stakes rise—and Nick gets perilously closer to discovering the truth of what Joan did to him—Joan advances deeper into the monster world. When she's captured by the Monster Court itself, she uncovers a secret of her own. She and Eleanor are the last members of a thirteenth monster family—a family erased from the timeline by the King. Eleanor has been fighting to restore them.

But when Joan glimpses the dark timeline their family once ruled over—and Nick's role in it —she finds herself once again torn between love and family and monstrous choices as she battles to prevent Eleanor from bringing back their family and ushering in a terrible future.

My Review:
Oh, man, this book was so great! I totally didn't expect that it would go in this direction, but I absolutely loved reading it! It was so great to be in this world of monsters who steal time from humans to time travel! 

After Joan changed the timeline, things have been different. But she doesn't know all of the changes. But Nick is going to her school. And of course there's the treat of the King and the Monster Court coming after her for what she did.

It was really interesting to see Joan's different relationships with everyone. She never spent that time with Aaron, so they're now on opposite sides, which is hard. She and Nick, in the original timeline, were together. And they had that connection, but Joan erased what happened to him, so he doesn't know anything about the monster world. But he still has the skills he learned. And he's being brought back into the monster world, learning about the difficult truths...

I really enjoyed exploring the Monster world more, because we learn something that's pretty vitally important-that there used to be another monster family in London, it just got erased. And man, I'm so excited to see what's going to happen next, what with that evil ending! 

This was such a great read, and I can't wait to see how things are going to go in book 3!
