This book was surprising delight. Now from what I have read about the book and author, this is Cynthia Hand's Fist book. She has set the standard! When I first picked up this book I had no idea what it was about. (A rare act for me) I usually always read what a book is about first. But I have to say I really like the cover and was in a hurry that day so I decided to get it. I was put off when I finally did find out what it was about. Angels. Not a topic I usually read about as I am not in any way religious.
Now that being said the Hand does a great job of keeping the book neutral, as not to offend anyone and making it a universal read. People who are not as religious as others will still enjoy this book as much as someone who is strong in his or her beliefs. Everyone can enjoy this book. I liked this book so much I went out and got the next one Hallowed which I am currently reading. Although, knowing that I have to wait till January 2013 for the next one; Boundless is going to be hard, I'm sure it will be an anticipation worthy of the wait.
My official rating of this book is:
9 Stars
I would recommend this book to my friends.
I am giving this book 9 stars because I did find the story a bit slow at times, but not often.
