Their Monstrous Hearts by Yigit Turhan

5.0

Thank you to Netgalley, the author, and the publisher for the opportunity to read this enticing story!

Their Monstrous Hearts by Yigit Turhan was a wild ride from start to finish.

We meet Perihan and are quickly met with a scene that can only be described as ominous. From there, we meet Ricardo, the grandson of Ricardo, who is an author struggling with writers block, but also struggling with his current living situation.

An old friend of his grandmother's comes to find him and convinces him to leave Paris and to return to Milan as a family tragedy happened and his presence is required.

This story had an aura of mystery and eery secrets! I enjoyed reading Perhian's manuscript and thoroughly enjoyed the way the author created a beautiful and terrifying blend of two lives being told together. One from the perspective of Ricardo, and the other from Perihan.

This book was NOT at all what I expected, but it was better. It was a definite 5 star read. The last 30 percent of the book left my grappling for answers.

Pick this book up when it becomes available if you enjoy horror, mystery, family secrets, and horrible creatures!
