Yeah ive read Hush Hush and Fallen, LOVED hush hush.ummm.... Lords of the Underworld series by Gena Showalter is pretty good. Theyre demons.
Yeah i read the first one of Angel Sanctuary but the incest in it got to me. Am going to continue the series though as a friend told me it becomes less central to the story.I read a couple of manga with angels and demons in them. cant recall off the top of my head the titles of them though
Okay, so I'm a huge fan of books about Angels, Here are just a few that I absolutely love and recommend for you guys to read!!
Has anyone heard of this one? It's called Angelology, and it's not a young-adult novel, but I saw it in the store, and I thought it looked really good.
I'm writing a book and it has angels and demons in it. :) I think it will be intresting.

I haven't but my friends going to let me borrow her copy of it, it's been getting mixed reviews.

Yeah, I noticed on its Goodread page it's getting an average of three stars. :) I read the description of Angel Star on Amazon, and it sounds really good! The only problem is when I get paid, I won't have enough to get that AND Radiant Darkness, the book you recommended me. :)
I think I'll get that one! :) I might get Heavenly, too; I DO have enough for that one and Radiant Darkness both.
I got on Amazon to look for other books that are Greek retellings, but I couldn't find any. Here's one I got not long ago and it one of my favorite books:
I loved it, and it is the saddest ending I've ever read. It retells the Siren myth.
It's hard to find a copy of it that's new and isn't expensive. :( And it's a really quick book, but it's kind of haunting. I did a review of it on a blog I started but never get on anymore. :D
Okay! I just went out to check the mail a second ago, and there was a book in there! THAT was unexpected!
I was totally surprised! :) The author's agent was giving away books, and I emailed him, but never got a reply. I figured they were out, but I guess not! :D
This is the book!
That same thing happened to me, an aurthor I liked was giving away a stack of bookmarks for her new book and I emailed her about it and a month later I got them but I had totally forgotten about it! LoL! So it happens....
I can still remember the day I got my ARC of Mermaid's Mirror. That was the first and only ARC I've ever gotten, so I was ecstatic!
Your lucky you got that, I haven't gotten one.LoL! But I shall try harder, I haven't entered that many contests to be honest!
I just contacted the publisher for mine. :) I know a lot of people say not to do that, but I thought what-the-heck, and I emailed them. I got a really nice response back and they were really helpful. But I think that was just luck, because I did that some other times afterward, and I never got responses, so I figured I just got lucky. :D

Yeah, there are people who doesn't like it. Though the story doesn't really evolve too much around them all the time. There's a lot more around it.
Oh yeah, I need to get Linger. Shiver's one of the books I need to finish! I always start books, but I almost never finish 'em, because another one comes out I'm excited about and start reading that one!
Tell me about it! I have that happen to me all the time, LoL! But fortunately it's different now, I make myself finish a book before I start another one.
I'm going to try and start that, so maybe I can finally finish a book! :) So, I think I made my final choice on Amazon. I'm thinking I'll get Radiant Darkness and Wicked Lovely (so I finally can start Ink Exchange)!
Oh, good choice!! I love the series! If you lived closer I'd just let you borrow all of mine for free! LoL!
I know! You have the BEST taste in books! Oh, by the way, have you heard of the House of Night Fledgling Handbook coming out soon? The Fledgling Handbook 101
You're not? I think I will, just because...well...it's House of Night. :) I really do like that series, but I just wish the authors wouldn't try so hard to make the teenagers sound cool. :)
Oh yeah! I heard about that. They've already hired a guy to write the screenplay. Maybe he'll actually make the characters seem cool. It's pretty sad that my favorite characters in those books are actually the villains!I'd rather see a movie about Vampire Academy. Richelle Mead posted on her blog that it's been optioned, but not to get our hopes up. I'd still like to see it.
