Sixteen year-old, Skyla Messenger is a dead girl walking. When her newly remarried mother moves the family to Paragon Island, to a house that is rumored to be haunted, Skyla finds refuge in Logan Oliver, a boy who shares her unique ability to read minds. Skyla discovers Logan holds the answers to the questions she’s been looking for, but his reluctance to give her the knowledge she desires leaves her believing Logan has a few secrets of his own. Skyla’s bloodlines may just be connected to the most powerful angelic beings that roam the earth, and the more she knows, the more danger she seems to be in. Suddenly an entire faction of earthbound angels want her dead, but Skyla is nowhere near done living—and she's not going down without a fight. It's on.

Are we starting this tomorrow or do you need some time?

I will do this one on the 3rd I hope it's ok to join u guys.

i started this one. Going to update soon.

Chapter 1: (view spoiler)[ This was a fast start. I want to know more about Chleo's death. I hope it gets more interesting. (hide spoiler)]

That's fine. The more the merrier.

Chapter 3: (view spoiler)[ Did she just drop the L word again? Seriously, I hope she is just making random comments because you just met him. (hide spoiler)]

Chapter 5: (view spoiler)[ Great...I wish Logan and Skyla got to know each other. I do not like a lot of insta-love stories besides student-teacher relationships for some reason. (hide spoiler)]

Chapter 17: (view spoiler)[ Okay. This book is just a severe case of insta-love. I do not know what to make of the story as it does not seems to have anything engaging to make me interested. I find this read pretty boring so far. (hide spoiler)]

Chapter 44: (view spoiler)[ I am starting to get really annoyed with this book. Thank goodness, I have a quarter left til it ends. I really hope the rest of the series will be better than this book. (hide spoiler)]

I'm up to Chapter 5.


(view spoiler)[At least Skyla isn't the only one with her gift. It would be weird to be living in a house where the room you stay in was owned by someone who was murdered. I wonder if we will ever read more about that or if that was just a little intro thing. (hide spoiler)]

I'm up to Chapter 10.


(view spoiler)[Michelle and her friends are so awful I really hope something bad happens to them. Just enough to put them in their place. I hope Logan doesn't take too long to tell her all that she needs to know. (hide spoiler)]

I'm up to Chapter 15.


(view spoiler)[I wonder if the raven is going to actually mean something or is it random. It would be funny if Skyla did actually end up with Gage. Since she is so into Logan right now. (hide spoiler)]

I'm up to Chapter 20.


(view spoiler)[Skyla is getting on my nerves. She thinks that she can do anything she wants. I was really hoping there would be more focus on the angel stuff. However, all we are really getting is their basic high school crap. (hide spoiler)]

I'm up to Chapter 25.


(view spoiler)[At least she learned a little bit more about the angels. Hopefully we will learn more as the book goes on. (hide spoiler)]

I'm up to Chapter 30.


(view spoiler)[Is it just me or is Skyla kind of dumb? She acts surprised that her mom doesn't trust her even though she's lied to her several times. Her sisters are as bad as she is too. I feel bad for her mother. (hide spoiler)]

I'm up to Chapter 35.


(view spoiler)[Skyla really is childish. I know that Logan shouldn't have kissed Michelle but Skyla didn't have to act the way she did. Also, what is the point of having parents when Skyla basically just does what she wants? (hide spoiler)]

I'm up to Chapter 40.


(view spoiler)[I wonder if there is something up with Tad. He seems suspicious. It's cool that Skyla finally time traveled. (hide spoiler)]

I'm up to Chapter 45.


(view spoiler)[The more this book goes on the less I like Skyla. I get that her parents making that document was a bit much but her behavior has been bad. It's sad she is pretending otherwise. (hide spoiler)]

I am quite a fast reader and would like to tag along. I don't know if you have a time we have to finish this book by. I understand if I would have to wait for the next book, just let me know. Thanks!

We just go at our own pace usually. I think the one person stopped reading it because it was so bad.
