THIS!!! WAS SO FANTASTIC WOW!!

Sweeping, magical, and with a heroine foretold to change the state of the kingdom of Ambar, Hunted by the Sky dazzles with its rich world and romantic nuances. I can't wait to see what happens in the sequel!

I loved that all of the POV's for this book were non-white and were Indian and especially that the story took place in a fantastical version of Medieval India. I do not often find YA books about characters from India, let alone written from their perspective without being a side character or having a white savior or being some sort of sidekick. It took some time to get into the plot and world build but I really enjoyed it, especially the last 100 pages or so. Great read for anyone looking for diversity and a fun fantasy read.

It looks like I'll need to reread Hunted by the Sky with a physical copy. Because this was not a great audiobook experience for me. The male narrator's attempts at "feminine" voices for the female characters were laughable at best, cringe-y at worst. I ended up only half-paying attention to the story.

Such a fun read with a magical universe based on Vedic and Medieval India that kept me interested and not wanting to put it down. Being a South Asian myself, it was cool to read a book that reflected so much of my culture. I loved Gul and her strength and can't wait to see how her story ends in the next book!
