Review
This one was recommended by Maribel and Keagan Rae, so I decided to give it a go. I got the ebook version when it was on sale last year.
The beginning confused me, because I totally DID NOT read the synopsis and had no idea what was going on... but I did figure it out pretty quickly. It helped that it was captivating.
It was pretty interesting, especially the characters. The fallen angel aspect was cool as well. But that's the end of the positive things I can come up with about this.
I didn't like the romance. I thought it was creepy and absolutely did not want them to be together. Also, I usually find the fallen angel aspect of a story entertaining. But I just found this to be annoying. And what was up with her parents?
To sum it up, the first half is enjoyable and interesting, and the second is more... what the f did I just read?
I won't be continuing this series.
