So much yet so little. Leaves you pondering in a good way!

Revisado: 04-12-25

Never would I have thought a dystopian novel would avoid giving a whole scope of the world, but still give so much in the aspect of character development and story…You are focused solely on the competition with hints of what the world is like around it. It left me wondering about their extended universe…and that ending. WOW. Left me pondering more—in a good way!

If You Think It’s Getting Stupid - wait for ending!

Revisado: 06-11-20

No spoilers! Book was interesting and kept me listening until last hour or two, which was very odd-and not in a good way (like the rest of the book). I thought nothing would make me really like where the book was going until the last couple sentences, which made me feel like it was actually a good ending...maybe that’s just me though? I’m going to read more reviews now to see if it was just me thinking this.

Oh Man Boring with Army Stereotypes

Revisado: 02-28-20

I feel like the characters were written flat, with super vulgar army talk that seemed forced and stereotypical in a generic action film. Maybe that is how Army people talk though? I give the narrator 5 stars because he was great with diverse voices (even women)...but man this story was hard for me to pay attention too. Wish it was better since it had such great reviews. Maybe I’m the minority here though.

So sweet and funny

Revisado: 12-04-19

Loved the Harry Potter-like book. It was still original and had a lot of music incorporated to make the audiobook all that more interesting/engaging. I got this for free in my monthly membership email perk and loved it way more than books I’ve purchased with credits. Kids would love it, and I’m an adult, so I liked it too. :)

Liked More Than The First! Team Russell

Revisado: 02-07-19

I was kind of bummed in the first book because of the sickeningly-sweet romance with Reed and Evie, when I enjoyed the more natural and genuine feeling of Russel and Evie...but this book had more plot and a little more Russel evolving. I liked Brannis being thrown in there for some variety too. It is the spice of life after all. Interested to see where this goes. I honestly like Brannis better than Reed.

PS Buns kind of annoys me. Maybe it’s the weird nickname? Am I the only one thinking this whenever they say Buns and Brownie? I feel like they’re part of the Power Puff girls instead of serious angels.

*spoilers* Main Romance Feels like Twilight and I’m Team Jacob

Revisado: 01-27-19

I like fantasy and romance...so I know to expect some mushiness, but this reminds me a LOT of Twilight. It reminds me of Twilight in the fact that the first book it is overly obvious that however many books come along, the main girl will end up with the semi-cold, fantastically rich, supernatural guy (Reed) who seems way too boring/fancy, instead of the more normal love interest that is far more interesting and funny/warm/genuine (Russel).

Whenever the main girl falls for the obvious rich guy it really bothers me, so I was going to stop listening to the series after this book BUT they got me back at the very end. Russell may be half angel? FINALLY, some love competition so the romance isn’t so boring/predictable. Mix it up a bit :)

So I downloaded the second book because of the twist ending in hopes to hear more of the more interesting love interest, Russel (to me anyway).

The rest of the book plot and dialogue I liked a lot and moved fast :) I did call something was up with Freddie right away, but didn’t know they’d add others to the angelic mix too (Buns and Brownie). That was a good twist.

In the end, good book so far, except the parts with just Reed/Evie that I just cringe through.

Wow I normally don't get to the 2nd book in a YA..

Revisado: 05-16-15

I love how YA books suck me in...but normally I lose interest after the first book due to predictability...but this series keeps you on your toes and is interesting, and characters are believable.

Give it a few chapters and you'll be hooked

Revisado: 02-22-15

Amazing writing. Not every book has an alcoholic, chubby woman as the main character...and that just made it more intriguing to me. The farther you get the more twisted the tale gets. The writer is great with letting you see all sides of the story so you feel both disgust but then sympathy for characters....that's a sign for a good book to me. Enjoy the ride!

Great story and awesome narrator

Revisado: 01-30-15

I hope they paid that narrator a lot because you don't appreciate a good one until you've listened to a crappy one that gives the same voice for men and women, etc. It was delightful and cherry. All of the characters were interesting and funny. The story had many twists that were creative and I didn't see coming. What an imaginative tale!

Narrator sounds like a languid valley girl

Revisado: 01-17-15

For the first 3 chapters that narrator was almost too annoying to continue...very monotoned and not diverse with her character dialogue...but then the story saved the narrator. I thought it was going to be a rehashed plot...but it held my interest and got better as the book went on. The author developed characters more realistically than throwing in a romance that was so "deep". Good on you, author. I will buy another audiobook because I have a long drive coming up...I can only hope that narrator worked on being interesting like the story is.
