When an alien crash lands on Earth, they discover dating apps are the easiest way to lure their next meal. Able to shapeshift into something resembling human, the alien must then learn to move and talk like one.

This is a unique narrative because the alien is directly speaking to the reader, breaking that fourth wall.

It is medium paced with the actional being primarily internal. The alien is processing their actions as they happen, making that the most important part of the story.

The frame of the book is the urban landscape with the alien having to navigate public transportation and apartments that are several story walk ups.

Personal Note: Check out this Walking Practice themed Valentine that my queer book club pal Angie made!

Text: Valentine, I would drag the cumbersome baggage of my flesh suit up 16 flights of stairs to devour you whole.
