annettebooksofhopeanddreams's review against another edition
5.0
After the first book, that wasn't as light as I had thought and brought me to literal tears, I was a little better prepared this time. But even though I was a little better prepared, I still ended up tearing up near the end of the story, even though I was also very brightly smiling.
What I love about those books, is that Schwab managed to write down those children's and teenage problems in a very simple, but also very relatable way. In this book we meet Caroline, who is bullied by her once best friend Lily and her friends and ignored by the rest of her school. But luckily for Caroline, Aria is sent to help her. But, much to Aria's surprise, she also has to help Lily!
The result is a touching story about bullying, the effect it has on kids and how the smallest of events can lead to being picked on and how even the smallest teasings can become huge when it happens daily and all the time. Schwab really managed to capture the feeling and write it down and she also managed to write a satisfying conclusion to the story, without saying that the bullying will never happen again, which sounded very realistic to me.
It also helps that Caroline is a very likeable character who reminded me a lot of myself when I was her age. Smart, intelligent, but afraid to be herself because she has gotten the feeling that being popular is far more important than being yourself. Caroline's struggles, her emotions, how she has to refind herself, it's all written down beautifully and touchingly.
I'm really curious what will happen in the last book in this trilogy!

These books are just so sweet! They are middle grade novels that deal with some tough topics about growing up, friendship, and being yourself. See that sounds really cliched, but I really wish I had read this when I was going through this kind of stuff. I recommend these to anybody. They are easy quick reads that are entirely enjoyable!

Conocí esta historia en formato audiolibro, el gato me rompió los auriculares en el proceso, cuando los recuperé y pude seguir, la voz de la narradora cuando hace el diálogo de las niñas es tan dulce que me dormía enseguida escuchando y así pasaron los días, pero, finalmente lo terminé :)
Es el segundo de una trilogía, debo decir que me gustó más el primero, pero este no estuvo nada mal.
En este volumen Arya (niña/ángel guardián de 12 años) debe ayudar a Caroline Mason (pronunciar Carolain Meison

Band 2 der "Everday Angel" Reihe war für mich ein kleines Highlight. Ich fand diesen Teil besser, als den ersten, da vor allem das Thema mich mehr angesprochen hat.
Schutzengel Aria ist bei ihrer zweiten Aufgabe, durch die sie ihre Flügel verdienen muss. Wieder einmal läuft nicht alles ganz so glatt und Aria lernt viel dazu, nicht nur über die Welt, sondern auch über die Menschen und ihre Beziehungen.

Well, it was not as good as the first book in my opinion, i found Caroline's story kinda boring to be honest, but it was still enjoyable!

I like this series because it's so full of hope that things can get better even when it feels like they can't. I need this kind of stories right now.

3.5 stars? (more well thought out rating to come when I'm less sleep deprived)
This was so much fun! Not quite as good as book one, but enjoyable nonetheless. RTC.
