Halo by Alexandra Adornetto

Name: Halo
Author: Alexandra Adornetto
Ratin: 5 out of 5
Blurb:
Is Love a great enough power againist evil?
Three angels are sent down to bring good to the world: Gabriel, the warrior; Ivy, the healer; and Bethany, a teenage girl who is the least experienced of the trio. But she is the most human, and when she is romantically drawn to a mortal boy, the angels fear she will not be strong enough to save anyone—especially herself...
My Review:
When I first got this book I wasn't to sure about it as I'd heard mixed things either you loved it or you hated it, a bit like marmite. Personally I loved it! It was an amazing book and wasn't like anyother angel book I've read and I can't wait for the rest of the series as they look equally as good! Hade is out but Heaven isn't yet but I believe it comes out later this month.
I loved how Adornetto had written in and she was so young when she started writting it aswell which makes it even better! Also I quite liked it how in the acknowledgements she said how this is a working project which you don't see very often in books!

Dreamless By Josephine Angelini

Name: Dreamless
Author: Josephine Angelini
Rating: 5 out of 5
Blurb:
Heartbroken and forbidden from being with Lucas, Helen has been tasked with breaking the curse that keeps them apart by killing the Furies. She spends her nights in the Underworld in search of them and, tormented by her worst nightmares made real, she's beginning to suffer from extreme exhaustion on top of heartbreak.
One night, Helen meets another person down in the shadowy Underworld: Orion, descended Adonis and with the power to control desire. Still in love with Lucas but drawn to this seductive stranger, Helen must make her choice that could save her life but break her heart...
My Review:
Dreamless is a beautiful book which has stayed so close to the truth and it didn't disapoint me what so ever and in ways it suprised me because of the way things went, Angelini is an amazingly talented author and the Awakening Series is her first set of books I have got high hopes for her in the future because this series so far has been amazing but one thing that does make me sad is that if there is going to be another book I am going have to wait at least another year for it!

What Did I recently finish reading
Game of thrones By George R R Martin, really enjoyed this book an amazing modern fanasty was a little to old for me at times, but I am looking forward to reading the other 6 books YAY more reading.
What Do you think I'll read next?
Probably Halo by Alexandra Adornetto because I really love angel books and this one looks amazing, I've heard some mixed things about it but I won't let that put me off because every book should atleast have a chance (this is why I have no money).

Waiting on Wednesday 25/07/2012

*Waiting On Wednesday is a meme where you basically share an upcoming book that you’re excited to read. It’s hosted over at Breaking the Spine by Jill. *
The Book I am waiting for this week is Fire By Shauna Granger which I will be the 4th book  in her Elemental series asI found out found Shauna herself. I have read the first one and I'm going to read the second and third as soon as possible and so far I am loving the series.
At the moment the is no cover art or blurb for Fire as it is still in the writing stages but it doesn't mean we can't get excited for it because it truly does sound amazing and Grangers next blog tour is in December so I am hopeing to take part it that because sadly I didn't see the sign ups for the last which I am really disappointed about because I would have loved to have taken part as I have never done a blog tour before.

30 Day book challenge: Day 17

Day 16: Favourite quote from your favourite book
My Favourite quote from my favourite book which is Jurassic Park By Michael Crichton if you didn't already know would have to be this. Because it shows how the characters are trying to get there head around what they are seeing and how it could even end, because even towards the start of the book they knew that something bad was going to happen,

“God created dinosaurs. God destroyed dinosaurs. God created Man. Man destroyed God. Man created dinosaurs.

Dinosaurs eat man...Woman inherits the earth.”
