I really loved the book. As an autistic queer person who has some past issues with religion, I really connected with the characters. 
The pacing was good, although imo the end felt a bit rushed.

Once the end battle started, i felt like it took only a second until it was done. And then suddenly most Angels + Theo had died and Benji won idk

Regardless, it was an amazing read and I loved it so much!!

Loved this book, and it's by one of my all time favorite authors, but the ending definitely let me down. I feel like there definitely could have been a better, more cohesive ending- or even a second book. It was a bit confusing towards the end, but other than that, I really loved this book.

incredible. absolutely, terrifyingly incredible. from every visceral description (i could not read this at night, in the dark) to the plot twists i least expected, there were monsters at every turn and in every form. the idea of losing your body to not the change you wanted, but to that forced upon you by people who think they know better, becoming some amalgamation of flesh and angel. i already want to read it again.
