Sisters Grimm

2 stars is incredibly generous on my part

this book fails to meet the hype of the blurb, is some weird blending of YA age characters with adult fantasy themes, and generally falls flat in all areas outside of characterization (although character building that only really happens in the last 10% of the book is not really character building imo)

i'm so sad because from the premise i wanted to like this so much. but the writing was flat and unsatisfactory in so many ways. i don't know that there's much good i can say about this book outside of its unique concept and a few good lines.

ugh.

Unfortunately, this title really wasn't for me. I don't know if my expectations were all wrong, but this just didn't have much going on. I've DNF'd after 100 pages of reading about the average everyday goings on of a few girls. The closest we came to excitement was one of them dropping a light onto someone's head.

There's clearly a hint of something happening soon, but after thinking that for 100 pages, I can't keep waiting forever for it to happen.

A sad DNF from me.
