From Goodreads:
In the beginning, there's a boy standing in the trees . . . .
Clara Gardner has recently learned that she's part angel. Having angel blood run through her veins not only makes her smarter, stronger, and faster than humans (a word, she realizes, that no longer applies to her), but it means she has a purpose, something she was put on this earth to do. Figuring out what that is, though, isn't easy.
Her visions of a raging forest fire and an alluring stranger lead her to a new school in a new town. When she meets Christian, who turns out to be the boy of her dreams (literally), everything seems to fall into place and out of place at the same time. Because there's another guy, Tucker, who appeals to Clara's less angelic side.
As Clara tries to find her way in a world she no longer understands, she encounters unseen dangers and choices she never thought she'd have to make between honesty and deceit, love and duty, good and evil. When the fire from her vision finally ignites, will Clara be ready to face her destiny?
Unearthly is a moving tale of love and fate, and the struggle between following the rules and following your heart.
My review:
You want an angel-themed book? Forget about Fallen & Hush, Hush. Unearthly is like 1567537 times better. Siriusly. This book is amazing!
I loved everything about it. The plot, the characters, the romance, everything! I even loved how the author used the angel theme. It is so different from Fallen & Hush,Hush, yet so better.
Clara is an amazing character, I like her a lot. She's strong, beautiful and she knows what she wants.
Even her purpose was to save Christian, she decided to save Tucker first because she loves him.
I usualy hate when there are love triangles in the books, but I actually like it in this one. I'm in love with Tucker, he's so sweet. And I hope she ends up with Tucker in the end, even though she's "ment to be" with Christian.
Thanks for following Never Judge a Book by its Cover :D I completely agree with you, its the best angel novel I have read. Though I do love Hush, Hush! Great Review, Thanks for sharing! =D
