Excellent! This second book in the Gemma Doyle series had it all: paranormal thriller, historical fiction, romance, mystery, and mind-numbing plot twists. Simply an excellent read. It was so refreshing to have the middle book in a trilogy not be just a filler book to get the characters to progress on their journey where not much happens but a little more is revealed. No, this book was masterfully done by Bray in such a way that Rebel Angels stood out on it's own: a continuation of the captivating story of Gemma and her friends Felicity and Ann, but with a thrilling story of it's own that seamlessly continues the saga of the Realms and the Order and all the different factions clamoring for power. I immediately started listening to the finale in the series... it's been a while, since Harry Potter or the Twilight series, that a continuing story has me so captivated. Can't wait to find out what happens!
