Prophecy of the Sisters by Michelle Zink
Summary (from book jacket)
Twin sisters, Lia and Alice Milthorpe have just become orphans. They have also become enemies. As they discover their roles in a prophecy that has turned generations of sisters against each other, the girls find themselves entangled in a mystery that involves a tattoo-like mark, their parent's deaths, a boy, a book, and a lifetime of secrets. Lia and Alice don't know whom they can trust. They just know they can't trust each other.
Personal Thoughts
This book sounded so great on the shelf! I was looking forward to reading it. The beginning had a good pace and really snagged me. However, after about 100 pages, the book just started to drag. Not only that, the language is a little flowery and sometimes hard to wade through and I felt some of the description was not needed. I was also very disappointed in the ending. The book basically just stops in preparation for the sequel...there's no conclusion to the events that took place in this book. Prophecy of the Sisters is only for the most dedicated of readers and not for the faint of heart.
