Book Review: Sisters Red by Jackson Pearce

8.24.2010

Between looking for a new job and getting one, I've neglected the blog again, and I'm sorry. I'll try and keep up, I promise!

Sisters Red by Jackson Pearce
Scarlett March lives to hunt the Fenris-- the werewolves that took her eye when she was defending her sister Rosie from a brutal attack. Armed with a razor-sharp hatchet and blood-red cloak, Scarlett is an expert at luring and slaying the wolves. She's determined to protect other young girls from a grisly death, and her raging heart will not rest until every single wolf is dead.

Rosie March once felt her bond with her sister was unbreakable. Owing Scarlett her life, Rosie hunts fiercely alongside her. Now Rosie dreams of a life beyond the wolves and finds herself drawn to Silas, a young woodsman who is deadly with an ax-- but loving him means betraying her sister and has the potential to destroy all they've worked for.

Twenty-five-year-old Jackson Pearce delivers a dark, taut fairy tale with heart-pounding action, fierce sisterly love, and a romance that will leave readers breathless.



All the while I was job-hunting and the last 2 weeks, I carried this book in my purse. I was reading a few pages whenever I got the chance, which was mostly on the bus or while waiting for the bus.  This right here should show how disappointing it was because I usually can't put a book down that easily once I start. 


All the characters felt kinda cardboardish, but Scarlett was the hardest one to relate to. Maybe it's because I don't like people who are THAT driven by rage and revenge? I don't know. Rosie and Silas's little romance felt like it happened way too quickly; and then I thought it would at least be cute, but it just got boring. 


Plus, I still can't seem to get into werewolves-- I'd rather stick to vampires.
