This novel was a pain to get through. I had to DNF it twice while listening to the audiobook and only just got through the remainder of the book on paperback after serval days. Giving it a two-star review is generous. The main problem with this novel is the length, the only interesting parts were in the last fifty or so pages. It's over four hundred pages long. Is it worth it? You do the math.
While I am interested in knowing what Luce has that a bunch of angels want, it's not enough for me to pick up the next book in the series. Ever.
Luce herself is a boring character who becomes infatuated with a boy so much that even when he is outright rude to her she falls for it every time. She supposedly witnessed another love interest dying before her by being burnt alive only months before and now she's perfectly okay to pursuing Daniel and Cam at the same time? There are mentions of her past love having negative reactions to her present but in no way is it realistic.
Nothing about this book is realistic.
I understand that this is a fantasy book, but you don't know that for certain until the last fifty or so pages, up until then it's your basic love triangle story. And I do mean basic. There's a 'bad' boy and a 'good' boy, there's even a fight between them over Luce. 0 points for originality for four hundred pages.
My advice if you want to pick up this book? Don't.
If you're forced to read it against your will for some reason? Read the last fifty pages only. Luce is the MC, Daniel is the 'good' guy and Cam is the 'bad' guy.
I just saved you 400 pages of filler.
You're welcome
