Heaven by Alexandra Adornetto

Is love a great enough power against evil?

This book brought me to tears throughout as Beth struggles to keep the heavens from tearing her newly formed marriage with Xavier (a human boy) apart. A dangerous force is after them, will she be smart enough to do whats right?

This is the final book in the Halo series and I must say it is so beautifully written, the emotions just poured out of me. It is brilliant and unlike other books there is a message within the writing in the entire series. It teaches you about religion, friends, family and love. I'm depressed the series is over, the book only took me 2 days to read, not because it was short, but because I couldn't manage to put it down. I stayed up until 1 a.m reading it 'last night'.
The amazing thing is, Bethany is an angel but her romance with Xavier is so real, anyone can relate to it. If you're in a relationship while reading this, i'm sure you'll find something in common with Beth and Xaviar.

Please read this series. Halo, Hades and Heaven.

I apologize for the quality. 

Love by Alexandra

"One of the most frustrating words in the human language, as far as I could tell, was love. So much meaning attached to this one little word. People bandied it about freely, using it to describe their attachments to possessions, pets vacation destinations, and favorite foods. In the same breath they then applied this word to the person they considered most important in their lives. Wasn't that insulting? Shouldn't there be some other term to describe deeper emotion? Humans were preoccupied with love. They were all desperate to form an attachment to a person they could refer to as "their other half". It seemed from my reading of literature that being in love meant becoming the beloved's entire world. The rest of the universe paled into insignificance compared to the lovers. When they were separated, each fell into a melancholy state, and only when they were reunited did their hearts start beating again. Only when they were together could they really see the colors of the world. When they were apart, that color leached away, leaving everything a hazy grey. I lay in bed wondering about the intensity of this emotion that was so irrational and so irrefutably human. What if a person's face was so sacred to you it was permanently inscribed in your memory? What if their smell and touch were dearer to you than life itself? Of course,  I knew nothing of human love, but the idea had always been intriguing to me. Celestial beings never pretended to understand the intensity of human relationships; but I found it amazing how humans could allow another person to take over their hearts and minds. It was ironic how love could awaken them to the wonders of the universe, while at the same time, confine their attention to one another." - Alenandra Adornetto, Halo

hush, hush...

A fallen angel, a forbidden love.

I honestly can't give you any details about the book because if I did I'd be going on and on about it for ages. The series has ended now with it's final installment, Finale. I fished the series yesterday.

The book is about Nora Grey a "normal" high school girl. Her dad died, apparently a murder, but no one knew who killed him. In this four book series Nora must find out who she is, what her love interest, Patch is, and learn things that she never fathomed could be real.

All four books are exhilarating and you'll find yourself plunged into the story within the first few pages. You feel Nora's love, hatred, despair... all her emotions come at you like an explosion. I must say, Becca Fitzpatrick, the author, is extremely talented in bringing all her characters to life. I found myself creating a bond with each character, as if I knew them on a personal level.

An end must come to each and every series, although, I wished that this one would have lasted  forever. As soon as I reached the last few chapters of Finale, my heart fell into pieces, because of the amazing words that were written on  the pages but mostly, because It would be the last time I'd get to spend time with Nora, Patch, Vee and all the other perfectly formed characters.

Now sitting here, writing down my thoughts, my heart is aching because it feels as if I have lost some truly great friends. I actually feel like I'm missing a funeral.

All four books kept me turning pages all night. They made me lose interest in sleep all together, I'd rather stay awake till' all hours of the night reading. Not one book left me disinterested, that amazes me because usually authors become less connected with their characters after a while, but not Becca, she makes me believe that she stuck with her characters all along making them entirely true to themselves.












All the books are named above in the pictures. 


I would rate this series a whopping 10/10.

Do you know what would be cool? If Becca decided that in a few years she'd write a short story about "the family life" of Nora and Patch and then call the book Encore!

lol, lots of love!!! xx
