“The book's dedication, words from Pablo Neruda's poetry - As if you were on fire from within. The moon lives in the lining of your skin - perfectly captures the essence of the story, symbolizing the woman's inner glow and beauty that radiates outward, illuminating the world like the gentle light of the moon.
The book’s exploration of women’s strength, particularly in a society that often tries to suppress them, is powerful and relevant. It’s a tale of survival, not just against external forces, but also the internal battles that all humans face. The characters’ individual journeys, marked by struggle and redemption, is a powerful reminder of the power of resilience and self-discovery.
The authors' writing style is a delicate balance of dark fantasy and lyrical prose, creating an atmosphere that is both haunting and mesmerizing. The narrative is intricately woven, with multiple perspectives and a layered structure, where each thread of the story intertwines into a complex web. Manral’s use of vivid imagery and symbolic metaphors adds a poetic quality to the novel, enhancing the eerie ambiance and the emotional depth of the characters’ journeys.
Overall, The Moon in the Lining of Her Skin is a haunting yet beautiful exploration of light and dark, love and loss, and the unbreakable spirit that resides within us all. The experience of reading it was both unsettling and enthralling.”SeaYon

“This is a hauntingly beautiful and poignant novel that explores the lives of 3 incredible and ferocious women.Noor, Rani and Gulab.
Noor, a fallen angel, is condemned to an eternal existence on Earth, forever fleeing from the hounds of hell and creatures of the netherworld. Rani, a once-vain beauty, is now possessed by an invisible lover, an entity that has consumed her body and soul, marking her for itself. Gulab, having murdered her father in cold blood, has escaped a nightmarish home and forges a perilous alliance with Teja, a hitman and collector of souls.
These characters navigate through realms of unimaginable darkness, where terrifying entities – both earthly and beyond – pursue them.This story is all set against the backdrop of a richly detailed and atmospheric world.The writing is addictive and captivating keeping the reader hooked till the end.
One of the beautiful aspects of the book is its use of language and imagery, which is both vivid and haunting. The writing is infused with a sense of wonder and magic, making the story feel both real and mythic.
Overall an engaging read.”
