It was great to read all the things that happened to these two.
No more.Ĭompared to the sibling bond or the love affair between Sophia and Ansel, each chapter that tells how Gretchen and Sam’s relationship is much more interesting. The impression I get is that they are more like traveling companions. Although Gretchen repeatedly referred to Ansel as her brother at every opportunity. Because from the first page they don’t look like brothers. Because of that too, brother and sister seemed to be an inappropriate word to give to Ansel and Gretchen. The figure of Ansel, Gretchen’s older brother, a character created almost completely devoid of emotion. Especially when he tries to uncover the secrets that Sophia is hiding. Gretcehn’s character comes alive when she meets Sam and gets involved in the hunt for Fenris. The fear and trauma of the forest is also not visible. I don’t think there’s anything special about the character who often tells how sad he is. All stories are seen from Gretchen’s point of view. Even though the two of them were still connected to the monstrous being, Fenris.Īnsel, Gretchen, Sophia and Sam are four important characters in this book. Sisters Red and Sweetly’s story stands alone. So for those who haven’t read Sisters Red, there’s no need to worry. However, Fenris’ hunting adventure this time brought me to new characters. Whereas in the previous book he chose Red Riding Hood, in Sweetly Jackson Pearce wrote a story based on the story of Hansel, Gretel and the witch complete with her gingerbread house.Īt first I thought I would find Scarlet, Rosie and Silas again. (goodreads) Not Everything Is As Sweet As It SeemsĪfter writing Sisters Red about sisters Scarlett and Rosie hunting a werewolf, Jackson Pearce is back with Sweetly. And he was sure of one thing: the monster would come again, and he would not leave until he was full.
He wanted to know why it was his twin sister who disappeared while he survived. He said that witches were still hiding, lurking from the forest, preying on girls whenever Sophia held a chocolate festival. Gretchen and Ansel begin to forget their dark past, until Gretchen meets Samuel. The two live in the house of Sophia Kelly, the owner of a beautiful chocolate shop.
A few years later, they moved to Live Oak, a town that was nearly abandoned by its inhabitants.
