Happy Friday bookworms! Today I'm excited to review Sisters of the Snake by Sarena and Sasha Nanua. Thank you to Harper Collins Canada for sending me an ARC copy in exchange for an honest review! This book comes out June 15th! Let's dive in!
Twins separated at birth, both live very different lives. Princess Rani wants to live free from the confines of the palace and prove her worth as a leader. Ria the street urchin is fighting to stay alive each day. When both girls meet their identical double, their lives are turned upside down. They make a deal to switch places and lives but they must come together if they hope to save their new found friends, their family and their kingdom. I became so immersed in this story! I loved the setting and intricate world of the kingdom. As I read, I was introduced to a complex and intriguing magic system and world history. The writing was very well done and I learned each new detail gradually. I really enjoyed our main characters Ria and Rani, Ria being my favourite. They both had their own voice and unique perspective on life. I got to see their growth and progression as the plot advanced which was great to see! Ria was my favourite twin as I related to her the most, she had a fire and drive that I admired. She was also incredibly kind to another one of my favourite characters, a servant in the palace. But Rani was also driven, and fuelled by her love for her kingdom. The side characters were intriguing but I wish that we got a closer look at their backgrounds and gotten to know them better. We also had cute romances that I thought were well written and realistic. The plot was exciting, with new developments occurring at every turn. Many times I sat down to read for 30 minutes and the next thing I knew 2 hours had gone by! The chapters were formatted in an addictive way where each would end on a mini cliff hanger. I finished this book in 5 days but I know that if I didn't have school work it would've been finished a lot sooner. What I loved most about the magic system was the snake magic. It was very unique and I loved seeing it in action, especially the snake familiars like Shima. She provided some funny comedic relief but also acted as Ria's guide to palace. I can't wait to continue with this series and see what Rani and Ria will face next! I gave this book 4/5 Stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. That's a wrap for my review of Sisters of the Snake! I hope you enjoyed it! Would you rather pretend to be a princess in a palace filled with enemies or hunt for a mythical gem while out running the law? Let me know in the comments below!
