Reading it again now, my only complaint is how young Penryn is. Growing up makes you realize how YOUNG a 17-year-old really is. It's true she had to 'grow up' mentally and take care of her younger sister since their mother wasn't capable of doing so, but it still feels wrong how young she is. Especially when she's falling for an immortal angel.
I liked the characters, good and bad. They all seemed to have their own personalities and backgrounds, and didn't feel two-dimensional.
This was a fast-paced book; you're basically at the edge of your seat the entire time. Penryn's determination to save her sister forces her to join Raffe, an angel who's wings were cut off and who now has to walk back to where the angels are in San Francisco. Their alliance leads to an eventful trip full of danger, both from humans and monsters alike.
I would recommend this book to anyone interested in a dark fantasy series about angels and the end of the world.
