Starfire Angels (Book one of the Dark Angel Chronicles)
By: Melanie Nilles
Growing up Raea has always been different and more than one way. From the light blue marks on her hands to who she really is. Little dose she know that she isn’t 100% human; instead she is an Angel like her mother. Raea’s mother was a shard keeper, chosen to protect a powerful part of a weapon that could destroy all the worlds. Before she and her husband were killed the shard was pasted down to Raea and without knowing became a shard keeper. Raea has no idea about any of this until the night that she gets her wings and a unsuspecting help comes out of the woodwork. As she learns what it means to protect this shard she still tries to live out her “normal” life. Read the book to see how that blows over!
I loved this book. It gave a really great twist to the concept of what an angel is. Not only this but if you think about how old Raea is, it becomes scary that at any point someone could just steal this shared away and destroy the world without a thought or care. Nilles plays with emotions, you feel for this girl who just wants to be normal by throwing in love connections left and right and she makes Raea feel like shes in the dark for most of her life. Out of 5 stars I give this book a 6! I thought that it was that great!
