About Someone You Can Build a Nest In by John Wiswell

Shesheshen is a shapeshifter living in the ruins of a manor when hunters drive her from her home. Injured after a fall, she is cared for by Homily, a kind human who believes she is helping another person. Shesheshen sees Homily as a possible mate and co-parent for her young, but her idea of family is decidedly monstrous—and Homily is hunting a shapeshifter accused of cursing her family.

John Wiswell’s 2024 fantasy blends horror and queer romance, telling its story from the monster’s perspective. As Shesheshen and Homily grow close, the danger surrounding the hunt and the secrets between them complicate their chance at a shared life. A strong fit for readers looking for an unusual monster romance, shapeshifter fantasy, or a love story with horror elements.
