Take Me Away... rated it 12 years ago
Originally I was drawn into this story by the cover. I love the purple and the smoke that looks like wings and the falling feathers. But as I began to read, it became clear that I was continuing the story for way more than that. Violet doesn't look forward to her birthday because it marks the d...

I'm not entirely sure how I feel about this book. Overall, I did like it, but there were parts to it that left me feeling blah. I loved Lincoln and Griffin. They were both fantastic characters and I enjoyed every scene with them. Violet was pretty cool as MCs go. She has a pretty good attitude and c...

I'm really not sure what to say about this book. There were moments that made me really angry with Violet - she acted like a child, she made so many mistakes and the way she acted was very wrong. . And I just wanted to give the book 3 stars and be over with it, but in the next moment something happe...

First Thoughts:So this is a book I had been debating since the moment it first came out and I saw it at my local Chapters store… but because it was hard cover, I would keep talking myself out of it. Then during the Armchair BEA I won a copy of Entice, so when that came in the mail (I was so excited ...

I have learnt an important lesson...Love triangle = SHIT IS GOING TO GO DOWN AND WE'RE GONNA HAVE HEAPS OF SCENES WHERE YOU GUYS JUST STAND AROUND LOCKING GAZES WITH HEAPS OF ROMANTIC TENSION. Oh, and one of those "I love you but I'm choosing the other guy" scenes. ;D

This is probably a 2.5 star read, but I'm feeling generous so giving it the benefit of the other 1/2 star. This had potential, it just didn't deliver for me. I've got RAPTURE on the way, I will read the final book in the HUSH, HUSH saga, but after those 2 I think I'm done with the angel books. Th...
