Prophecy of the Sisters (Prophecy of the Sisters Trilogy, Book 1)
Michelle Zink
- Reading
- Read together or check in after the opening chapters if the sisters’ bereavement or growing distrust feels weighty. You could also discuss the prophecy as its clues emerge, without rushing to solve it.
- Themes
- Sisterhood and mistrust: Lia and Alice discover opposing roles in a prophecy and are described as enemies who do not know whom they can trust. The book’s stance on this remains unclear.
- Prophecy and good and evil: The book addresses prophecy and good and evil; the detail of how it is developed remains unclear. Good and evil are part of the story’s framing, but how firmly or thoughtfully those labels are treated is unknown.
- Worth knowing
- The sisters are newly orphaned, and their parents’ deaths are tied to the prophecy. The story also presents the twins as enemies; how these elements are handled is not established.
