Long Review:
We Shall be monsters is a unique fantasy read that I still remember months and months later after reading it. This review has been long overdue and I truly loved this book!

In We Shall be Monsters, we follow along with Kajal, who is trying to bring her twin sister Lasya back from death. She tries to do this by interrupting the cycle of reincarnation and by doing that, she traps her sister as a bhuta, which is a violent, wraith-like spirit that is hell bent on murdering people who have wronged it or its loved ones in life.

Kajal is kicked out of the village she lives in due to being called a witch and is locked. She is saved by two strangers who are rebelling against the current ruler in the country as they want her to resurrect the kingdom's fallen crown prince and promise her to get Lasya's body in exchange to that. Of course, things goes wrong and Kajal ends up resurrecting the prince's twin brother (and yes, two sets of twins?! what are the chances)

I truly enjoyed We Shall be monsters and I cannot wait to read book two. This is one of my first exposure to Indian Mythology and I will say it was done quite well, with the descriptions that were vivid and imaginative It is beautiful in its own way and I cannot wait to follow along in the adventures of the characters in book two!

Thank you so much for the eArc in exchange for my honest opinion
