So often we only do what we think is expected of us, when we are capable of so much more. 
 As a part angel, Clara has a predestined mission. She doesn't quite know what her Purpose is but knows that she must do everything in her power to save the boy in her visions - even if it means her family have to move across the country to a small town in the middle of nowhere. It's there she finally finds the boy who haunts her - Christian. But despite finding him, her angelic mission is still unclear. As Clara adapts to life in the country, she finds new friends and some more about Angels and her kinds history. Black Wings - angels with a dark intentions, threaten Clara's loved ones and her attraction for Tucker - a country boy with a lot of charm, endanger her from being able to save Christian and carry our her angelic Purpose. 
 Unearthly is a promising start to the series. Clara is likeable and independent with enough secrets to keep things interesting. She has a good relationship with her mother and brother but it isn't unrealistically perfect. She has disagreements and the occasional moment where she knowingly acts immature but that makes her just that much more authentic as teenager. Her angel ancestry is interesting - the visions, wings and all that go along with being a Quartarius (quarter angel) make for an entertaining read. I liked the way everything progressed as the story unfolded with some mysteries being revealed and more questions brought up. 
 For me one of the highlights in Unearthly is the romance. Not your average love triangle but Clara does find herself with feelings for two very different boys. One is associated with her Purpose and the whole reason why she moved to the country and the other - a complete surprise. This is one of the few novels with a triangle where it's not entirely apparent who the lead is going to pick until it happens. 
 I will definitely be reading the next book in the series (in fact I already have Hallowed (Unearthly #2) and Boundless (Unearthly #3) in my possession) because there are still many secrets and mysteries left for the reader to discover. I hope that the questions I have will be answered and I am excited to read more about Clara and her relationships with her friends and family.
