I saw the book as part of a bookstore billboard in a mall near my office and it says Team Vampire (then the cover of New Moon) vs Team Angel ( and the breathtaking cover of Hush, Hush). Aren't we all intrigued by this book's cover. Clearly the saying "Don't judge this book by its cover" does not apply to this one because when you see its cover it will make you grab the copy and buy the book.
I bought the book at around 8pm of Saturday night and devoured the book until 4 in the morning of Sunday, it wasn't my intention not to let him see sunrise, I just could not put it down. Amidst all the vampire craze (not that I'm not a fan) I was secretly looking for something new but have similar concept, young adult's novel, mythical character, mysterious kind of guy, which I gladly found in the book.
It was nice to know a little something about angels, their rank and their somewhat political views as well. I like the twist of the story and how they are connected. I pictured Patch as Devil Jin in Tekken and found him attractive and sexy in a goth kind of way.
I feel somehow that development of romance between Patch and Nora weren't fully developed and could have added more contact or mysteries involving the two of them.
A lot might have compared this book to the Twilight Saga, which they have several things in common, (Spoiler Alert!) the Biology partners, mind reading thing, mysterious guy involved because of being a not supposed to be an existing character. But overall it was a good read, a very nice breather from the Vampire clan, maybe Patch can start his legion. Let us wait for Crescendo then.
But for now this one is Shelved.
