Angelfall was a good read. I'm still unsure as to whether i want to read the next in the series, or just pretend that it is a stand alone.
Your feelings about this book will definitely depend on how strong your maternal instinct is. Something happens in this book that involves children, and if you have a very strong maternal instinct, or have lost or nearly lost a child you may not want to read this book.
Angelfall is about a girl called Penryn, who's sister gets taken away in the apocalypse type setting. Penryn goes through thick and thicker to get her back, and is forced to form alliances with an angel. Enemy of the humans in this world.
They each have something that the other can help them get but don't trust each other very much.
One thing that i did really like about this book was that the romance is there, but it takes a back seat only popping up now and again.
This book explores the concept of mental health also. Whether it is executed well is not for me to decide however as i have been lucky enough to have never had to experience it.
Angelfall was quite vanilla for the majority.. until i got to the end. The ending of this book is quite peculiar, and as far as i know, unique. I certainly haven't read another book with an ending similar to Angelfall.
The only thing about this book that i really didn't like was that the personalities of some of the characters clash with my own, so i had trouble seeing things from their perspective. But everybody is different so i will recommend this book, and rate it a 7/10 because it had a good ending, but because of the characters I'm unsure as the whether to go on and read the next in the series.
