It took me a while to finish reading this book for some reason. I didn’t say that I like it but it isn’t that bad either. There’s just something off about this book, probably it lack something…
For once, I didn’t know the purpose of the character. Yes, the character has an emphatic ability and can travel outside of her body and enter the realm of the dead. So she used this ability to help the dead get their closure and all. Other than that, she is also an Angel who decided to live among mortals in a dystopian world where humans considered supernatural beings as outcast and dumped them in a segregated place.
Then there is a half demon girl who’s some kind of hot in a femme fatal sort of way who worked as a bounty hunter for rogue creatures. But then she died in a very morbid way and now trying to reconnect with the Angel to pin those who are responsible with her death from the afterlife. This character for me is more interesting compared to the Angel whom the only dilemma she got is if she would give in from her sexual desires that she’d been suppressing since she clipped her wings and lived among mortals.
This could have been an interesting plot. However, it seems the author dwells mostly on the Angel’s emotional battles about moral values rather than pushing the narrative. The premises itself has so much potential to give action scenes blow by blow but the climax ended flatly for me, garnering a sort of confusion for the readers at the end.
