Sisters of the Snake took me some time to complete reading, but I enjoyed it so much whenever I had the chance to delve into this book!

Sisters of Snake was a beautiful Prince and the Pauper retelling! The plot twists and character growth kept me wanting more; The inclusion of Indian culture and cuisine was so beautifully done to craft the story's colorful and vibrant world! I enjoyed the character development and world-building the most! The plot and conflict/ resolution enticed me into reading the story!

However, I felt like some of the conflict/resolution and dialogue were formulaic and predictable at times. I was saddened that there was no map of this world for such a wonderful fantasy world-building story - A map is not really necessary, but I would have liked it paired with this beautiful fantasy world and the lovely dust jacket. I felt like some of the dialogue and conflict/resolution was predictable for my liking, but the last chapter definitely made up for it! 

Therefore, it's a 4 Star rating for me! I'm looking forward to reading the second book of Ria and Rani!
