Prophecy of the Sisters by Michelle Zink
5.0
Lia Milthorpe is not having much luck in life lately. Her father has just died leaving her and her two siblings orphans and she now has a strange mark blooming on her wrist. Each day it seems to be getting darker and changing in some new and weird way.
Then, her sister, Alice, begins to act strange. She sneaks off in school, stares off into space, and acts quite mean toward everyone and everything around her. What could possibly be going on with her?
Things couldn't get worse, until Lia finds out that she and Alice are part of an age-old prophecy that pits both of them against each other. Good versus evil. Right versus wrong. Life versus death.
Lia has a choice to make: save herself or those she loves most in the world. Which will she choose and will she be able to make the choice before it is too late?
I have to admit I was a little scared at parts of Prophecy of the Sisters. I can't really explain why but it just left me feeling so terrified for what was going to happen next. Lia, her family, and her new friends seemed like such great people and I never wanted anything to happen to any of them. For me, that makes a book even better than if it just has an interesting plot.
Michelle Zink did such an amazing job with her first novel and the first book of the trilogy. The story seemed to start off a bit slow for me but that might have been because I was trying to read it at night and I just couldn't do it. Once the story picked up I was enthralled. It left me guessing till the very end and I am so excited to read more from this amazing debut novelist.
If you love historicals, romances, mysteries, paranormals, or really any type of book, you will totally love this one. Before reading it I had heard so many great reviews of it and I was surprised to find that it was just as good as everyone said. I plan on rereading this lovely book over and over again in the future.
