I didn't have any expectations of getting blown away or having that WOW feeling when I started reading this book.  I must say that this title is labeled as New Adult when it is really geared towards teens/young adults.The first chapter caught my attention with the introduction of Sophie and Michael as it was different and interesting.  I was disappointed when the middle section seemed so tame and dragged.  I almost put the book aside at this point as it was not holding my attention.  I left it alone for a couple of days and picked it up again last night.The angels and demons concept was very well done and thoroughly explained and that is why I picked up the book again and finished reading it.The second half of the book brings you into the battle between the angels and demons and what Sophie's dad did.  You also learn exactly what Sophie is and why she can see both angels and demons.Though I didn't get that "Wow" effect this is a decent read.  I am not sure if I will go out of my way to pick up book 2.  The only reason I would is if I suddenly felt the need to find out if Sophie's heritage is explained.
