Sweet Venom

Hello welcome back to my blog this is Megan. Well let’s get down to business. Today the book is Sweet Venom by Tera Lynn Childs.


I have read many reviews for this book and they all sound negative. (I will publish some of the ‘positive’ ones) So I decided to write my feelings on this book.


Sweet Venom is about long lost triplets that find each other. The book starts off in Gretchen's point of view, she is going to an abandoned warehouse around the middle of the night to go kill a mythical beast called a Hydra.


Well, soon after Grace is introduced. She and her foster family just moved to San Francisco, the only place where you can find mythical creatures. Once she moved her whole life changed.


I’m still in the process of reading the book so I haven’t met Greer but she has been described as the preppy chic kind of girl.


Each of the sisters have different backgrounds and personalities.
Gretchen has really bad foster parents so she ran away and her mentor Ursula ‘adopted’ her (the authorities don't know about the arrangement.)
Grace grew up with a loving adopted family and they love her, they also adopted Grace’s ‘brother’. He is a little quiet and it seems like he has a secret to hide.
Greer I have no clue.


Well these three girls are descendants of Medusa, but not the Medusa we all thinks of (That is just a rumor spread by Athena).
And so far they have powers. Grace can teleport and they have fangs, and super healing abilities.


Now back to the beginning when Gretchen finds Grace.  Gretchen’s mentor has been missing for awhile and she has been calling and calling her but hasn't been able to get an answer. Well she becomes more frantic once she finds Grace because she never knew she had a sister, and there is a lot more monsters coming out than normal. And both still have to deal with schooling and if Gretchen’s out fighting monsters all night you can guess how her schooling goes.        Now my review: I love this book (good thing it’s first in a trilogy) I haven’t been able to put it down. It’s a great book for people that love mythology and kinda sorta mystery. For a while I have been wanting something that has assassinations in it because I’m in a book hangover and I have only been able to read in that one genre and so once I found this book I was automatically hooked. People say it starts off slow but it is actually not, but I fully recommend this book.
