Apunta't a LibraryThing per saber si aquest llibre et pot agradar. No hi ha cap discussió a Converses sobre aquesta obra. Hell on earth. That’s what it’s like for Luce to be apart from her fallen angel boyfriend, Daniel. It took them an eternity to find one another, but now he has told her he must go away. Just long enough to hunt down the Outcasts—immortals who want to kill Luce. Daniel hides Luce at Shoreline, a school on the rocky California coast with unusually gifted students: Nephilim, the offspring of fallen angels and humans. At Shoreline, Luce learns what the Shadows are, and how she can use them as windows to her previous lives. Yet the more Luce learns, the more she suspects that Daniel hasn’t told her everything. He’s hiding something—something dangerous. What if Daniel’s version of the past isn’t actually true? What if Luce is really meant to be with someone else? Daniel creía que nada ni nadie podía volver a separarlo de Luce, pero estaba muy equivocado. Ángeles y demonios acaban de sellar un pacto tan excepcional como las circunstancia que los rodean: se concederán 18 días de tregua para dar caza a los desterrados, los ángeles caídos que han sido condenados al exilio y que ahora buscan a Luce. A Daniel no le queda otro remedio que llevarla a la Escuela de la Costa, el único lugar donde estará totalmente aislada y protegida de la batalla que va a librarse en el Cielo. Será difícil convencerla para que abandone Espada & Cruz, aunque, si todo sale como Daniel espera, muy pronto volverán a verse... In this second book in the series, Luce really started to become her own person. In the first book, she was confused and everything seemed to be done to her. In this book, she took charge of her own life and acted on her own, not waiting for Daniel to show up or tell her what to do. Go Luce! Even though she made some stupid mistakes (and what would plots be without stupid mistakes?), at least she took some action. The end was extremely satisfying and I'm looking forward to seeing what book three brings. Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya

That means she suddenly aware that he's not a great guy and is causing her life stress and struggle, and she's mad about it.
Character development? In trashy YA books? Geez it's finally happened.
This is an incredible thing and I really really like it, it's basically everything I've ever wanted. And somehow we're at the point that I now have fear we're going to lose it.
I really could not care about her classmates, they all have super op abilities like I don't get it with the angel idea. You can't just have them have flight or connection with God and leave it at that? It's always going to go past that. They have like powerful abilities, and they're just chilling in a high school.
My bingo card is filled.
But then she starts to call him out on his abusive behavior. She's calling Daniel out for being an asshole abusive man. How often do we get a book where the abuser is actually called out? This is wild.
Of course it's not possible that this would be a consistent thing in the series, we all know that they're going to get together. It's all but written in the stars that they are fated lovers and bound to get together blah blah blah.
What- The fact that they even touched upon it is enough to impress me. I'm very tired of these books to the point that when they touch upon something like this I'm excited and please even though this is the bare minimum. So I'm excited and please and reading this book higher just for doing the bare minimum because so few books do that. So I don't know if that means this book is really good or if it's just exceptional amongst the unexceptional. But it's getting a higher rating so far and that's good. For it at least.
Also there's this implication that Daniel was in a relationship with a seventeen year old "years ago". That would make him a child predator by all those ages. But they repeat it as "years ago" again and again. Author did not think that went through.
2.5 stars.
We're going up. Now for the fall! ( )
