I absolutely loved the second half of this book. The first half, not so much.Ellie meets Michael within the first few chapters and seems to love him from the moment she sees him, which brought to mind Twilight. And Twilight was there to stay when Ellie and Michael believed that they're vampires. ...
Plot: 4.5 StarsI really enjoy a good fallen angel book, and this one didn't disappoint. The only real negative I have plot-wise is that I hate when a book is named or described in a way that tells the reader without a doubt what supernatural creature is involved, but then it takes the main charac...
I thought it would be a really good book, that wasnt the case. Ellie is such a predictable character that you can probably guess what reckless thing she'll do next. I just felt that i was reading a cheap rip-off of Evermore and the whole fallen angel concept. Even the fallen series is a much bet...
It takes a lot for me to not finish a book. I'm sad to say I did not enjoy this book. I actually couldn't finish it. I got half-way through and couldn't push through it anymore. I felt that it was very rushed, and the character developement needed improvement.I was hoping to get into it more, but...
Bello appena finito. Se il primo non mi aveva del tutto convinta, non so mancava qualcosa, e non riuscivo a sopportare Michael, in questo seguito mi sono appassionata molto di più.Michael non mi è sempre tanto simpatico. Invece ho adorato la nuova entrata in scena di nome Rafe. *_*Io penso che la...
I chose this book because its subject matter piqued my interest: Who rightly owns a painting of questionable provenance that may have been confiscated by the Nazis? Unfortunately, despite its focus on art, the book itself is artless.Mara Coyne, a New York lawyer, is hired by an art auction hou...
He hits a perfect depression in the wall. Pulling up hard, he kicks the bear-claw toes of his climbing boots into the wall. He repeats the practiced motion, over and over. Like some kind of arctic cat, he scales the frozen Ring. Each time he moves, he makes sure to insert ...
Junius 25Year 242, A.H. “Again, Archon Eva,” the masked Archon calls out. He wants me to scale the hundred-foot ice wall that dominates the Yard. This will be my sixth attempt. “Yes—” I stop. It feels wrong and disrespectful not to address him by his Lex-given title, but I don’t know what to call...
Maybe it came from the hatred of me I saw in my classmates’ eyes and minds. When I returned from my three-day suspension for my Facebook prank, as it was dubbed by the administration, I’d become the object of loathing for every student at Tillinghast Upper High School. My locker was vandalized, m...
Yet as I listened more closely, I realized that it had an unnatural quality that wasn’t quite human. I prayed that the scream came from the other fallen. And that Michael was the cause. I pretended that I hadn’t heard it. I returned to my game of clasping Barakel’s hand, and playacting capitulati...
470–71 BRIGID: A LIFE Brigid delights in the collaboration. Decius is indeed the scribe and illuminator of her wishes. With ease, he captures the unusual Gaelic style and imbues it with his own artistic Roman vision, fashioning a Gospel book of unprecedented beauty, meaning, and structure. He enc...
