Review: Angel Burn


Angel Burn
Angel Burn by L.A. Weatherly

My rating: 3 of 5 stars



A YA paranormal romance where the angels are the bad guys! Angels are actually beings from another dimension that come to earth to feed off the energy of humans, leaving them addicted and eventually killing them. Alex is a boy who has been assassinating these angels for most of his life. He meets up with Willow, his next target, only to discover that she is something different. Discoveries and danger follow for both, and of course there's a little bit of romance.

I really enjoyed this creative take on the modern mega church movement. For those who take their faith very seriously, it could be offensive, but I got some good laughs out of it. Some of the observations I felt were very apt.

Altogether, I found it a refreshing read, offering something new from a young adult novel with enough depth to satisfy an adult. (Admittedly, I haven't read any of the other angel series out there yet, so I don't know how this compares.)

**Received free arc for review.
