DNFMary-stus, stereotypes, token gays. The main character was your typical 'omg im so speshul i never wear makeup or jewelry ye im so individual right?'I just can't take this shit.
I was absolutely blown away by the perfectly developed characters, intriguing plot, and to-die-for writing. I keep hitting myself for not picking this one up earlier.Haven is a very smart but definitely shy girl. She doesn’t know her past, as her guardian found her at an early age. Haven, along with...
I am DNFing it. Having a sixteen year old fawning over her employer (even if he is 25, worse if he is some ageless hunk, she is only 16, people!) and her best friend gay guy getting all excited about him hitting on her... doesn't strike me as right. I'm 1/5 way through and it's all still very one-di...

I wasn’t disappointed, but it didn’t meet up to my expectations either. Haven Terra is offered an opportunity to work for the glamorous Aurelia Brown a...
SPOILER ALERT: It's been awhile since I read this book so I may not remember the smaller details, but might give away the bigger ones.Sentence: I sentence Aimee Agresti to carrying ten copies of Illuminate on her back for 48 hours. That's how it felt when I really wanted to speed through but there w...
Illuminate is a fascinating new take on the old story of angels and devils. Aimee Agresti has a strong debut and that end will leave readers eager for more!For once I'm going to start my review with the bad because it is greatly outweighed by the good. Illuminate starts off very slowly. The first...
I have a special place in my heart for angel books. Guardian Angels…Fallen Angels…All angels! Illuminate has officially been added to my list of Angel Awesomeness! Agresti’s writing style is what made this book great for me. The personalities of the characters in Illuminate were wonderfully done, an...
