Now I'm a person who is usually easy to please when it comes to YA books. Because basically I don't expect much. But this book was a total disappointment. 
 I read this book because I happened to stumble upon people who recommended the book and even said they loved it. I don't trust people as I used to now. 
 I struggled in reading it from the beginning. Things just didn't make sense. I found myself trying to convince myself that the book would get better, cause hey, some people said they actually liked the book. And I really hoped, no PRAYED, that it would, but in the end disappointment. Maybe it appealed to some people, but definitely not me. 
 It's too much like Twilight and everything about it just screams cheesy and stupid. 
 This book had failed to make me believe in the angel universe. I didn't get whole archangels, fallen angels stuff. There was not enough background story about it, even if there were, none of it was convincing. I felt maybe the author didn't even believe or understood it. 
 The protagonist is frustrating. I hate her. I mean really, if she were my friend I'd smack her silly. Falling in love with a guy who admitted he once wanted to kill you is.... stupid, desperate and stupid. She is also whiny, self-centered and emotional. I thought YA books were supposed to set an example for teenage girls to be strong, smart and all that positive stuff. This is just.... 
 And she's nosy too. Just because your a person's biology partner does not give you the right to sneak a peak at their student file. Really, she actually said she had the right to know because he was her partner. And in accomplishing this, they called the school for A BOMB THREAT!!!! 
 ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! 
 The love interest, Patch, is supposed to be the bad and mysterious boy. Yeah bad and mysterious alright, for a RAPIST! 
 The best friend is even dumber than Nora and the mother should be nominated for the worst mother of the century award. Your husband gets murdered and you decided to get a job that has you going out of town for days, even weeks, leaving you teenage daughter alone in a big house with no neighbours around. All just because you want to keep the house! Really? REALLY?!!! 
 And the antagonists. Too much. Theres's Elliot, Daria, Patch was one at some point, that bitchy cheerleader and that dude who turned out to be the enemy at the end. I forgot his name. Too much bad people trying to get to Nora makes her sound like a paranoid schizophrenic. It was exhausting. 
 I could go on and on, picking on every little thing in this book, but I do not have the time and energy. I've wasted enough reading the book. 
 I hope this book was this bad on purpose. I hope it's purpose was to teach the teen girl readers what NOT to do, think and behave.
