Review: Until Next Time
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 04 2, 2012
There are so many young adult books out there right now that deal with angels. I have read a decent amount of them and for the most part, they've left me with very disappointed and annoyed. They often just lack that spark to make me enjoy them. I did quite enjoy Until Next Time, though, and I'm glad I got the chance to read it! Even the cover of it is really good- I like looking at it!Until Next Time was not what I was expecting it to be. That is not necessarily a bad thing though! It just had a different tone and feel to it than I had been expecting, based on other angel books I've read. I liked it though; it felt relaxed a lot of the time but definitely had its moments of action and tension to keep the reader on her/his toes. I really loved the beginning of this one! The start of a book is so important and this one was spot on. It captured my attention and had me hungry for more. It was so different and exciting; I found myself racing forward to see where it was going.The characters in this book confused me sometimes as I didn't really know what they wanted. I suppose that was the whole point but I found it irritated me more than it kept me guessing! They're well developed though and all felt very believable. I especially loved Michael and Gabriel; they were the most interesting in the book. Matt and Emily were well written though I would have preferred to have had more Matt at the beginning than we did get. I did like how it went back and forth as this definitely added tension to the novel.Overall, Until Next Time was an interesting book and a very unique take on angels. Fans of angel books will love this one!
