What would you be willing to do to bring a loved one back to life?Part fantasy, part political intrigue,and  part horror, We Shall Be Monsters is steeped in Indian folklore which focuses on a young necromancer on a quest to revive her deceased sister. This book will capture you from chapter one. While gruesome in some spots, I would say this is a cozy horror, if that term exists. This book would be a great bridge for teens who love fantasy but are interested in toeing into horror. I look forward to the next installment.

Thank you to NetGalley and Penguin Teen for an advance reader copy of this book. All opinions are my own.
