Sweet Venom

Sweet Venom by Tera Lynn Childs

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


Sweet Venom was a surprisingly fun book.  One of the girls at Union read it, and really liked it, so I decided to give it a try.  It is the story of Grace, Gretchen, and Greer, triplets who were separated at birth.  Grace has just moved to San Francisco with her family to attend a new school.  She has led a sheltered and happy life.  When she gets to San Francisco, things change.  She starts seeing minotaurs and other ancient Greek Monsters.  This is amazing enough, but when a girl who looks just like her shows up to fight a monster, her whole world turns upside down.  She finds out about Gretchen, who is her sister and endowed with special talents to fight these monsters.  When Grace starts doing some research about their parentage, they find out they are not twins, but triplets, ancient descendants of Medusa.  This is where their socialite triplet, Greer comes in.  The three are destined to keep the world safe from the monsters escaping from the portal, not an easy job.  I do think my middle school girls will love this book, just as the girl who told me about the book loved it.
