Helpful Score: 1
Beautiful cover. Otherwise, so, so formulaic. Sad how YA books all follow the same patterns. The protagonist here, Nora, is somewhat of a loner (but this time the author portrays her as this drop dead gorgeous brunette with legs a mile long) who finds herself the one and only true love of some dangerous/sexy older boy who is not a vampire or werewolf but an archangel. Patch was obnoxiously snarky, rude and overly impressed with himself. Nora might've been a stronger character, but Patch "brainwashes" her for most of the book into becoming a simpering twit who blushes at his sexual innuendo, follows him to motels- basically he makes he do whatever he wants (don't worry, this book is PG with kissing at most) because he has the power to control her thoughts and visions. I *got* the twist at the end (and how it refers to the opening chapter) but it left no heavy impact. The book overall was boring and none of the characters were likeable. There's better YA series out there- heck, even Twilight was more fun than this.
