I'm not writing a proper review in the format I usually do because I just can't be bothered.
I really tried hard to read this book but this book is sadly further proof to myself that YA is no longer suitable for me.
I've said this before but I'll say it again, why do YA authors make their female leads appear so weak? We get the usual spiel of they are super special sparkly heros but they rely on a male to help them up. Why? If she is so super duper why isn't she enough without the love interest? Fine have a side line for that but just always seems to be saving her, although once she sort of saved him. Sort of.
The story was slightly interesting and I was curious about the whole demons not called demons and angels not called angels, and the whole realm and magic etc but this was hard to read and I didn't find myself wanting to keep reading, there are better YA books that have a similar story lines.

Good book I liked the magic system and everything about the angels and demons would definitely continue the series

This book was okay. It was full of cliches, and didn't really bring anything new to the demons-angels genre, which made it a bit boring. The main character, Ryn, was kind of whiny as well, which was irritating. The story didn't have a ton happen, and was only about two hundred pages. Overall, I wasn't very impressed and I didn't really enjoy the book. I wouldn't recommend it unless you're new to the paranormal romance/demons-angels genre. 3 stars.
