anniekslibrary's review against another edition
4.0
I've read Sajni Patel's YA romances before and let me tell you, those are VERY different. I love an author with range! This book is brutal and graphic, but in a way that will (hopefully) make people feel empowered. You will root for the main character, follow her monster origin story, and wonder who the real monster is. This book is inspired by both the tale of Medusa and Indian mythology, a combination that worked exceedingly well and made for a very gripping read.
