Win a Nook Color from Shannon Dittemore (@ShanDitty)! "Angel Eyes" Giveaway and Facebook Party {6/26}

    Brielle is cold. She can’t shake it. She never sleeps, reliving the nightmare of the past month. She suffers from unimaginable guilt. Then she meets Jake. Jake is incredibly warm, and when he heals her broken ankle, Brielle knows that he has a connection to something supernatural. Through the next several days, Brielle and Jake begin to become better friends, all the while trying to understand the spiritual realm. Little do they know about the evil trying to overtake them, their town, and the entire earth.
I liked:
  • The structure. It had just enough conflict to make it suspenseful, and just enough resolution to make you temporarily relieved.
  • The celestial realm description. It was amazing to me how accurately the author describes things like fear, and guilt.
  • The character’s thoughts. The author really knows how to get into the character’s head. I appreciate this.
  • The humor. While I love books where I laugh non-stop, I also love a good suspense book where I  laugh at certain sections, but it does not override the storyline.
I disliked:
  • The Lack of God. While there was a lot of mention of the spiritual realm, there wasn’t too many phrases about God.
  • A little too much romance. They described two (or three) kisses between Jake and Brielle. While I thought they were appropriately timed, I deemed them unnecessary.
  • A bit of theology. I didn’t love her talking about God allowing people to die.
Overall:
I sat down at 10 am Memorial day and finished it that afternoon. It was really interesting, and I don’t think I can wait until February to read the next one! The good definitely outweighs the bad. I would definitely recommend this book to readers 16+.

Thanks to the Litfuse Publicity group for allowing me to be a part of this blog tour.
