The rulebook's Attack Action entry says you don't engage an exhausted monster you attack.

No — an attack on an exhausted monster doesn't engage it. It stays exhausted, and you deal damage normally. Attacking a monster also doesn't exhaust it; monsters become exhausted through evade actions and similar effects.
