Description

Waking up in a hospital bed isn’t that surprising. Losing some memories due to the accident’s aftereffects, forgetting about being married and even their spouse’s existence, is understandable too. “Honey, how are you feeling?” But having a tentacle monster in a suit as a husband? “It seems to be an aftereffect of the accident.” “So, to put it simply, doctor, you’re saying that because of the accident, something went wrong with my brain, and that’s why my husband looks like a tentacled monster?” Her husband, who appears as a perfect man to everyone else, looked like a monster straight out of cosmic horror to her. And the reality that differs from her memories. “It’s okay. I remember you.” “Ah…” “If you don’t remember anything, just ask me. I know everything about you.” Her perfect husband takes care of her with kindness, but she’s confused. Could all of this really be a temporary side effect of the accident? * * * Lowering her chin, she glanced to the side. A tentacled monster with a fantastic body was sitting there. With all its tent**les drooping down, it looked quite dejected. She took a picture with her phone. The tentacle monster was on the screen until she pressed the capture button. But when she checked the photo album, the tentacle monster was gone, replaced by a handsome man with a heartbroken expression. “Um…” “Yes, honey?” “How did we get married? Did I blackmail you with your weaknesses or something?” “Blackmail? You? Blackmailed me?” As she raised her head at his amused tone, her eyes met a bundle of trembling tent**les. It was hard to tell with his form, but judging from his reaction, he seemed to be laughing. “What if it was the other way around?”

My Thoughts on How about Cosmic Horror?

Alright, let's dive into "How about Cosmic Horror?" This novel definitely piqued my interest with its intriguing title and genre mix. A blend of cosmic horror, romance, and comedy? I had to see how this played out.

First Impressions

My initial impression was definitely one of uniqueness. The premise is genuinely unlike anything I've encountered recently. It throws you right into a world where the mundane meets the utterly bizarre, and I found myself immediately curious about the female protagonist and her strange situation. The story starts off strong, setting a tone that is both unsettling and surprisingly humorous.

What Works Well

The novel's greatest strength lies in its originality. It's not just another run-of-the-mill fantasy or romance. The author has crafted a world where cosmic horror elements are seamlessly integrated into everyday life, leading to some truly hilarious and unsettling scenarios. The characters are also quite engaging, especially the female lead. Her amnesia and "average" appearance make her relatable, while her interactions with the handsome male lead spark a captivating dynamic. The romantic elements, mixed with the underlying horror, create a push-and-pull that kept me hooked. The pacing feels pretty good, and there's a lot to love about the relationship between the main characters as they navigate their peculiar cohabitation and mysterious past.

Areas of Concern

While I enjoyed the novel overall, the blend of genres might not be for everyone. The tonal shifts between comedy, horror, and romance can be jarring at times, and some readers might find the "smut" elements to be out of place. Also, the "average-looking protagonist" trope can be a bit tired, even if it's used in an interesting way here.

Final Verdict

"How about Cosmic Horror?" is a wildly imaginative and entertaining read. If you're looking for something different, something that blends genres in a unique and often hilarious way, I'd definitely recommend giving this novel a try. It's a solid choice for readers who enjoy their romance with a side of cosmic dread.
