Graphic but empowering, I'm looking forward to more from this author. I don't have much patience for the "guy goes on a rampage of revenge because a girl got harmed" storyline; girls managing to take care of their own revenge and taking care of each other is so much better.

Such a great read from start to finish! 5⭐️

Sajni Patel’s writing is beautiful, breathtaking, and captivating. She knows how to capture AND keep your attention throughout the story. I’ve never highlighted so many quotes and messages from one book! Manisha, Pratyush, and everyone the encountered along the way each played a vital role in conveying the story of finding your inner strength, freedom, redemption, and perseverance. I loved the dual pov and alternating timeline. The two elements gave a lifelike quality to this fiction novel.

If you enjoy fantasy, Greek mythology, angst, and coming of age moves…THIS IS THE BOOK FOR YOU! I’d recommend this to EVERYONE! This is a must buy for my collection

Tell me this is not a standalone. Absolutely stunning. The themes of trauma, sexual assault, feminism, sisterhood and revolution were so touching and hard hitting. Definitely recommend
