Fans of Angelfall discussion

Any books that you think we should read can be posted here and I'll add them to the shelf.

Untitled



I would like to add "Untitled (Penryn and the End of Days #2)" because it has huge potential of becoming the best book ever. Seriously.

My first reaction was LOL! That's so sweet, Caro!

Then, I clicked on the "Untitled" link.

Um...wow. There really is a book entry for Untitled. Who knew? :)

I'm a huge, huge fan of hidden gems. I'm not recommending it "yet" since until the last page, the verdict is still out. However, I'm LOVING Zero Sight. I'll let you all know soon but other than the absolutely horrible cover, it has me hooked.

Think a dark, gritty Harry Potter.

It has a "potential" romance (actually, the same way Angelfall has a potential romance). I ended up loving the book.

I can't think of any book like Angelfall. Susan, you need to give your 2nd book a sexy codename that sound better than untitled, lol.

If you like this book, I recommend Obsidian by Jennifer A. and Sweet Evil by Wendy Higgins

I second Obsidian by Jennifer A - and also Delirium by Lauren Oliver (Dystopian, Urban, Fantasy/ Paranormal romance) absolutely brilliant.
Also Touch by Jus Accardo

I suggest Enclave and Outpost by Ann Aguirre as well as Wither and Fever by Lauren DeStefano.

I loved Sweet Evil by Wendy Higgins. :)

The Forbidden Game by LJ Smith :) Brilliant writing!

I think more people should read The Demon King (Seven Realms Series) by Cinda Williams Chima. It's a fantasy/adventure/thriller/romance and it's amazing!

Plus, Shadowfell or anything by Juliet Marillier because I'm loving the Sevenwaters series atm!

I just read Sweet Evil based off y'all's recommendations and it's awesome. I'm also backing up everyone who recommends the Lux and Covenant series by Jennifer Armentrout, and I'd like to throw out The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer by Michelle Hodkin and Under the Never Sky by Veronica Roth

I just finished an angel book that reminded me a little of Angelfall (of course Angelfall was better because it was somewhat darker, but this one was good too). It's leaning a little more to the pnr side than the sci-fi side, but the romance isn't overly sappy - the balance between action and romance is pretty good. The concept is the offspring of fallen angels are looking to hunt down their evil parents so they can kill them. The book is older YA/New Adult. Not gonna lie, the fact that the main character is named Rafa did sort of throw me for a minute because it's close to Raffe.

The name similarity throws me too. Please tell me Raffe and Rafa have distinguishing characteristics.

They are very different characters, no similarities really at all.

What's it called?

Shadows by Paula Weston. If you click on this it will take you to the book's page here on GR.

I'm using the Goodreads app on my phone and for some reason parts of comments are cutting off so if I'm asking y'all stuff you've already said I'm sorry!

D*mn, Shadows isn't available on the kindle :/

I second that, definitely agree with Shadowfell or anything by Juliet Marillier! I must check out The Demon King though, hadn't heard of that book!

Like several people have said, Sweet Evil is a really good book. :)

Daughter of Smoke and Bone by Laini Taylor was the most similar to me.

I am totally gonna buy that book next!

Just finished reading Shadow by Paula Weston and totally agree with those who recommend it. Similar to Angellfall and book two comes put Oct 2013.

I've read Shadow and must say that I didn't like it very much. Was a bit disappointed...

Engelita wrote: "I suggest Enclave and Outpost by Ann Aguirre as well as Wither and Fever by Lauren DeStefano."

Yes, perfect! I second Enclave by Ann Aguirre. They both have strong female characters and a kinda creepy suspenseful atmosphere.
Her Grimspace series is awesome too.

I'd like to add "Sanctum (Guards of the Shadowlands)" by Sarah Fine.

Search it! The heroine is by far the strongest and the bravest among all my favorite female characters. The main male character is also badass, dangerous, and at the same time sympathetic & very protective of the heroine (he reminds me so much of Raffe).

It's the most similar book to Angelfall in my opinion. I've read Shadows and it was a bit disappointing.

(these books might not be like Angelfall, but they're dystopian)

Legend and Prodigy by Marie Lu
Shatter Me and Unravel Me by Tahereh Mafi
The Eleventh Plague by Jeff Hirsch
The Selection by Kiera Cass
Divergent by Veronica Roth
Restoring Harmony by Kills Anthony
Angelfall [obviously]
The Witch and Wizard series by James Patterson

Paula Weston's

Thanks!

Welcome! :)

What to read after Angelfall?

Honest to goodness post apocalyptic fiction just like Angelfall is, tons of action, a super strong heroine and vamps.

The other one I really liked that reminded me a ton of Angelfall is vamps one more time but the heroine is awesome and the love interest is HOT, HOT, HOT.

What's the author to that one?

Never mind got the link to the book. Didn't get it at first :)

I just finished Sanctum by Sarah Fine and I gotta back up the people who recommended it - it was fantastic!

I definitely recommend Daughter of Smoke and Bone, and the follow-up, Days of Blood and Starlight, by Laini Taylor. The second isn't QUITE as good as the first, but both are fantastic. The first book had me hooked on the story straight away and I'm dying to read the last book of the trilogy now. Another one they're rumouring to make into a movie. It's well written and you can really 'see' the world the author creates around you as you read. The characters are interesting and well developed and the ending of book 2 will haunt me until I can get my hands on book 3 and finish the story. Brilliant. :)

I know, right? I've been recommending it to my fellow Angelfall fans. ;) It's not about angels but it gave me the same feels. Plus, the main characters are almost similar to Penryn & Raffe.

please help, I don't know what to read now....

Here are my recommendations for books, they were quite good:
The Assassin's Curse series by Casandra Rose Clarke
Poison Princess by Kresley Cole

Thanks for recommending Sanctum peoples! Picked it up, and loved it!

I read an awesome book recently - Written in Red It became one of my most favorite books, I can greatly recommend it

Another Little Piece by Kate Karyus Quinn :) it's refreshingly different and really good (although maybe a little bit confusing, also I recommend to pay attention to, well, every little piece in the story)

Zuzana - I'll reply here! I saw The Raven Boys by Maggie Stiefvater on your bookshelf, have you read the second book yet? It's so much better than the first!

Ails wrote: "Zuzana - I'll reply here! I saw The Raven Boys by Maggie Stiefvater on your bookshelf, have you read the second book yet? It's so much better than the first!"

I haven't read it yet. But I wanted. Thanks for reminding me. :) Any other idea?

Zuzana - It depends on your priority. If you want a subtle romance, I recommend The Assasin's Curse (I gave it 3 stars but I must admit I savored the romance so much), The Dream Thieves, and Unspoken. Demons at Deadnight, Sweet Evil, The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer, and Shadow & Bone have swoon-worthy males, too!

I'm not gonna be surprised if you've already read all the books that I mentioned haha.

Thank you :) I've read and really liked the romance in the Assasin's curse. And read Mara and demons at deadnight too. Totally new is Unspoken and Sweet evil, other books are in my to read list :). Thanks :)
