Monsters live in the walls.
And that’s not a metaphor—it’s how Chasing the Moon begins.

When Diana moves into her cheap new apartment, she expects weird neighbors. Maybe a bad plumbing situation. What she gets is a giant creature named Vom the Hungering living in her closet—and that’s just the start. This is a story where reality bends, monsters negotiate rent, and the universe might implode before brunch.

Martinez doesn’t hold back. One moment, you're laughing at a bureaucratic moon-god's policies. The next, you're contemplating the nature of existence, all while a cosmic beast chews on drywall. It’s absurd, funny, and deeply original.

As one character says, “The universe is a lot like a party—loud, confusing, and more fun if you stop asking questions.”

If that line resonates, this book is for you.

What makes Chasing the Moon special isn’t just the weirdness (though there's plenty). It’s how Martinez balances the surreal with the sincere. Diana’s journey is one of self-discovery through the absurd—a metaphor wrapped in tentacles and cosmic nonsense. And somehow, it works beautifully.
