Sisters of the Snake Book Moodboard

I would like to notify you all of a trigger warning for those who have Ophidophobia, which is the fear of snakes. If you have this phobia, I would NOT recommend this book because it contains serpents and snakes in imagery, references, and on the dust cover.

If snakes or serpents do not bother you, you may proceed through this post.

Trigger Warning: If you have Ophidiophobia, which is the fear of snakes, I would NOT recommend this book. It contains Serpents in imagery and references.

NOTE: Based on my personal experience and relationships, I noticed people with animal phobias have a more reactive response to their specific phobia, such as being unable to see illustrated images or leaving the room at the sight/ mention of said animal. From now on, I will be making trigger warnings on books with strong imagery and references to snakes and spiders.

Phobias are a type of anxiety disorder that causes fear ranging from mild to moderate to extreme. Oftentimes, these phobias can interfere with peoples’ day to day life and often block them from doing what is best for their mental and emotional health. Despite wanting to share books with others, I also want to considerate of other peoples’ mental health and boundaries.

If there are any other phobias you would like me to include, feel free to leave a comment or contact me about it.


Sisters of the Snake by Sarena and Sasha Nanua Summary.

Sisters of the Snake Summary

Princess Rani has heard the whispers: Snake Princess, they call her. A girl with fangs for teeth. Her people fear her. Yet her father doesn’t believe her capable of ruling

Ria is the quickest thief this side of the Var River – that’s why she’s still alive. But when she’s conscripted into a looming war, she knows she has to be quicker than ever before to elude the royal army’s grasp.

These two lives collide, turning everything upside down…because Ria and Rani, orphan and princess, are unmistakably identical.

A deal is struck – both can get what they want if they switch places for less than one moon’s time. But danger lurks in both worlds, and the two are thrust into a race to unravel a mysterious prophecy and locate a long-lost mythical object.

To save their home, thief and royal must work together – or watch it all fall into ruin.
