Jun 30, 2011 Natshane rated it really liked it

I am in love with a badass angel Patch, but ironically I'm also in love with an AK (angel killer) Alex. Now I finally understood why my friends have been obsessed with Alex, :P
Willow is a 17 year old girl who was different from the other girls, despite her ability to fix cars, she is an angel. Well, partly angel to be more specific. And it's her destiny to save humanity against these divine beings.

Beware! Angels are coming! Beware! (Why I rated Angel Burn a 4.5) :

I bought this book when it was first released over here in the UK. I had been really looking forward to it. However, it ended up in my TBR pile for months. So after months of it sitting on my bookcase I decided to actually read.

Angel follows the story of Willow and Alex after Alex find out that Willow isn't what she seems. And Together they embark on a dangerous journey that full of high and lows that pushes the two of them together.

Angel is a very un ...more

Books I've read about angels have always portrayed them as good, helping humans, gets the girl, etc. etc.
I've never read a book until now, which completely changes the story.

I love how L.A. Weatherly makes the angels the bad ones in this book, and those who hunt them, Angel Killers (Alex) track them down. And the complication in this story? Mayb Originally Posted at: http://iliveforreading.blogspot.com/2...

I love how L.A. Weatherly makes the angels the bad ones in this book, and those who hunt them, Angel Killers (Alex) track them down. And the complication in this story? Maybe, just MAYBE, he might like her. I like how she has the ability to look into the future and see stuff. Totally didn't see the big surprise about her coming.
I take Global Perspectives in school and we were looking at religious extremists. I personally, have nothing against them. Seriously, I think a person should be able to do what they choose to. But I gotta say, the Church of Angels SERIOUSLY reminds me of some extreme religions. And another thing– I looked up Church of Angels 'cause I was curious to see if it was real. Guess what? It is! Go ahead, if you don't believe me. Google it! It's true, and I was like "WOAH!" because this is hugely linked in with the story and stuff. So, wow, okay. That kinda creeped me out first, I gotta admit, it's pretty darn cool once you think about it...in some way or the other.

Weatherly's characters are AMAZING. I absolutely loved Willow (she's so strong and just so enviable!) and of course, Alex! :D <3 him! I also love the switch in narratives, so we can see the different perspectives of the two, their stories and how their feelings and mood changes over the course of the novel. I found Alex's part a bit more exciting I have to say...it was just much more action! But Willow's POV was really intense and emotional– I loved the detail in it. I found that Jonah's perspective was also very information giving, and added a lot to the overall story line and what was happening, and new bits of information. I love it when he finds out the thing about angels. SO INTENSE! That was like, one of the mini-climaxes...before the big one.
The plot was very well planned, there were no dull spots! I just kept reading and reading, desperately trying to find out what happens in the end, and of course, to find out the love sparking between Alex and Willow. If you're planning on reading this book, here's a warning to you: Don't read this at night, or on a busy-packed day. You're gonna want to go through it at an alarming rate 'till the end...trust me!

The angels in this book...are so terrifying. I had nightmares about them, coming to suck my soul or something *shudders*. It's just so scary how Weatherly describes them and their confrontation with humans. And along with that, Angel Burn. I didn't understand that when I first read the title, but after reading the book, I kinda do now. It's to do with the powers of Angels, and how they can blind a person to insanity and/or becoming "not-really-there". Read the book, and you'll find out more.

Overall, Angel Burn is an exciting new series (actually, this is the US release, but whatever. New for ME!) which I can't wait to get my hands on the sequel! It's action-packed, romance-filled and a new paranormal which takes Angels to a whole new level. L.A. Weatherly never dulls with her fabulous descriptions and loveable characters. Loved, Loved, LOVED it! ...more
