Archangel's Assassin by Barbara Elsborg
3.0
3.25 Stars
As a book that I've actively wanted to read for a year (procrastination at it's finest), I was hoping to love it. And while I did quite enjoy the first half of the book, the second half lost me a bit. There was a lot of stuff going on and it was rushed. Like the author going through a checklist of events. Also, I simply didn't see enough development in the relationship between Tao and West; something that was important for the second half to work. To me, we needed to see them spend more time together. Time that wasn't spent having sex.
Still, there were quite a few elements I liked. And characters I found interesting (Raphael). But the book was too short to explore everything properly. Wish there was a spin-off...
