Sisters Red by Jackson Pearce
4.0
I liked Sisters Red. It was an amazing start. The prologue to get to know the sisters and the situation.
I liked how Pearce thought about the red capes so it was really a bit of Red Riding Hood and the names I mean Scarlet means red and so does Rosie in some way. It's the little things that I later realized that reminded me of little Red Riding Hood.
It was in a goodway written though I cannot know for sure because I bought the translation unfortunately. In which some words are written in the wrong way but I don't think that was in Pearce her version.
Most of the time I read in English but this time I bought it (out of annoyance because of a test) and it was Dutch but I didn't care.
My favourite character in the end was really no one. I liked Scarlett and Rosie and Silas all equal I think.
I liked Scarlett at first because it's the name of my best friend however her character was cool tooo. I felt a bit sorry for her because of her scars and that she was obsessed with hunting. That became annoying half way through the book when they were in Atlanta and she failed a few times to hunt. I get it that you want to do something so badly and deep down in another way I can understand that you feel dissapointed but sometimes it went a bit to far. Like her way with Rosie. That she wanted Rosie to be like her but didn't want her to go on a solohunt. That girl needed to clear up her mind. So I liked the epilogue in which they describe that she lived on her own in an appartment and that she still had her passion for hunting. That's okay you know as long as she doesn't dragg Rosie in it.
I liked Silas. I already thought he would be the one that the Fenris want. I did see it coming around the first time they talked about changing. So even before page 150. I hoped it wouldn't happen when they were really searching for it with the seventh son of the seventh son. However it's great how Pearce let me think of it but kind of hope and feel relieved it's not Silas until Scarlett visits his father. I still wondered why he kissed Scarlett that's the moment I didn't like him. However in the end it might not be that bad because he wanted to proof Scarlett that she wouldn't love him as much as she loves the hunt but still: Damn boy you have Rosie don't kiss Scarlett!
So my all favourite was Rosie. Untill she got kidnapped and thinks that Scarlett won't save her and she can't save herself. I'm glad she found a way to escape and become more aware of herself. So in the end I didn't really mind. It was of course Scarlett who was always the one that knew how to hunt and everything. I think she is a sweet girl that keeps reminding herself of the fact that she lives thanks to Scarlett. That she doesn't want to fall in love with Silas because it feels like betraying her sister. I think she is cool. In the end she got Silas and Scarlett in both ways. I hope their hearts will always beat as one.
