Prophecy Of The Sisters by Michelle Zink

Prophecy Of The Sisters (Prophecy of the Sisters, #1)

by Michelle Zink

Without the Keys, something terrible will happen. Something that cannot be undone.
And with them, I might bring an end to the riddle of the Prophecy and my strange part in it.
If Alice and I are on conflicting sides of the Prophecy, the Keys would be dangerous in her hands.

Which means I have to find them.

And I have to do it before my sister.

This is the story of sixteen-year-old Lia Milthorpe's quest to discover her role and her twin sister's in a powerful prophecy that has affected twin sisters for generations. But nothing can prepare her for what she discovers - about herself, about her family, and about the danger that goes from haunting her dreams to becoming her reality.

eh. That's really all I have to say about this book. I wasn't impressed with the simplistic, first person writing style. I wasn't intrigued by the mystery and the magic of the story. I expected it to be more predictable than it was, so that was pleasant and kept me reading when I might have put it down.

But all of that is forgivable if I'm invested in the characters, and I wasn't. They are so flat, so one dimensional that I didn't care about anything. I mostly wanted the good sister to win but even that - if she had failed or died or any number of things it wouldn't have bothered me too terribly.

And when you don't care about the characters, it's hard to care about anything.
