A short novella perfect for filling the craving for a gothic sapphic monster romance. This novella has everything you could ask for - a monstrous spider lady with slightly eldritch features, a main character not repulsed by her inhumanness, and a world where the monster lady is looking for a bride who isn’t repulsed by her. My only complaint is that (potentially from the translation) I felt there were a few parts I found confusing, and that I wish the romance was a bit more developed and longer. I didn’t find the worldbuilding too confusing, but I think if this was ever decided to be adapted into a full-length novel it would benefit from a clearer understanding of the setting, as well as more interactions between Anatema and Dália. Overall, this was a fun read and exactly what I was looking for when I saw the synopsis.
