Throwdown Thursday is a meme started by Kate at The Neverending Shelf. This is a weekly thing where we tackle books with similar characters, covers, themes, etc. to determine which one rocks more. And it is up to YOU to determine the winner!
Last week, my throw down saw two of YA fiction’s most loved lycanthropes going head to head. And the winner was…
Jacob from Twilight. Seems a lot of people can’t get enough of this guy.
This week, I’m throwing down two Victorian-Gothic YA novels that I really love. Dangerous other-realms, powerful friendships, and bucketfuls of atmosphere make these two firm favourites with me, even though one of them's a new kid on the block. Which one’s your favourite?
Prophecy of the Sisters by Michelle Zink?
Or A Great and Terrible Beauty by Libba Bray?

Hmm, this one is hard! I think A Great and Terrible Beauty.
I'm phoning a friend on this one.
I have to read the 1st one :) but I do like the cover of the 2nd one better.
POTS is still sitting on my shelf to be read so I will have to go with A Great and Terrible Beauty. It is one of my favorite books.
I agree with Juju - A Great and Terrible Beauty IS a good cover, so I'll go with that. ♥
My vote is for Prophecy of the Sisters

A Great and Terrible Beauty wins on my account!
I love that series :]
I just gave away a bunch of awards on my blog, and you received one. Or more. I really can't keep track at this point...
I enjoyed A Great and Terrible Beauty but I haven't read Prophecy of the Sisters (I plan to), so I don't think it will be fair to choose. Maybe if I close my eyes and...
OK, A Great and Terrible Beauty it is.
A Great and Terrible Beauty. Only because PotS hasn't had all three of the books yet. But...I don't think anyone will replace Gemma for me.
