DELICIOUS MONSTERS by Liselle Sambury was truly a wild ride. A YA thriller following dual timelines a decade apart and two Black girls just trying to survive, DELICIOUS MONSTERS is both atmospheric and gripping. It has excellent pacing that kept me reading and wanting to know more. For most of th enovel, I was both intirgued and slightly confused but in the best way possible. This is a novel that forces you to take your time becoming fully immersed in the story. Daisy and Brittney's traumas are a part of who they are; it informs their decisions but does not control them, which is an intricate balance Sambury was able to strike throughout the novel. Daisy is not an easily likeable protagonist, and we truly need more unlikeable Black girl protagonists! I do wish we got more of Brittney and was able to see more of her growth as a character. Overall, a very satisfying read that was hard to put down; I'll definitely be reading more from Liselle Sambury.
