Ratings and reviews

To be honest this book was an easy read. For the simple fact that this young girl had written it. She was only 16 when it was published. Defenetly a book for younger teen girls. But still when you think she was 16 when this book happened i would take my hat off to her.

Most boring book I have ever read. It was excruciating, I had to really fight mself to finish it. I will not be reading the sequel. In fact, I'd like to have an old fashioned book burning and rid the world of this monstrosity.

Amazing, incredible. This nail-biting, on the edge tale about forbbiden true love between angel and mere mortal is truly inspiring. Shock after shock after shock, completely unpredictable. You have no idea what will happen next. I literally could not stop reading for a minute. I am very tough and critical when it comes to books but this i rate 5 stars. I recommend all to read it. This might well be my favourite book of all time. All praise Alexandra good on you. You are a truly gifted author
