It promised so many aspects I like and for the longest time I held my hopes high. The story pulled me in right away – the ocean, hunting and breeding monsters to make a living, Koral’s relationship with her family, their difficult position amongst the islanders. Monsters Born and Made by Tanvi Berwah started out really well.
Which is weird to even think, considering the unique setting, competition-based plot and all the monsters. It wasn’t exactly a bad book, but it was bland and forgettable. Based on that cover and summary, I expected so much more. They can’t all be winners, and Monsters Born and Made fell short for me. Monsters Born and Made by Tanvi Berwah – My Review
YA friends to antagonists/rivals to maybe lovers?. mythology inspired fantasy creatures, no-to-very-little magic. living on an island surrounded by an ocean full of sea monsters. There’s only one solution – Koral must cheat her way into the Glory Race, a deadly chariot tournament reserved for the Landers.īut the upper class has no intention of letting the poor sneak their way into their circles. She and her brother Emrik earn for living by capturing maristags – sea monsters that live in the black seas around their island.īut when the last maristag of the season escapes, Koral and her family face starvation and they can’t afford even the basic meds for her chronically ill little sister. Koral is a sixteen-year-old low-caste girl living in an oceanic world ruled by the rich and powerful Landers. You swim with monsters these people cannot scare you.
