Book Review: Monstrous

Monstrous

Book review by: Anette

Meet Kymera, a girl whose mother has been killed and whose father brought her back to life. Except she now has things she didn't have before. Like a tail with a poisonous barb, and wings, and eyes that turn from cat's eyes to normal blue ones. But Kymera is not evil. Her father teaches her in the ways of the world, cares for her, and teaches her how to use use her tail and wings. Then her father tells her that she must venture into the city of Byre, and kidnap the girls that are falling sick to illness, so that he can heal them.

My favorite characters are Ren, and Kymera. Ren is a boy that Kymera meets when she is in the city. He always gives her a perfect rose whenever they meet. He always smells of cinnamon and does not know of Kymera's other things, her tail , wing and cats eyes. And I also like Kymera's dog, which is half sparrow and half regular dog. She is very perky and flies everywhere around the house.
