Blog Tour! A Book Review of Angel Eyes by Shannon Dittemore




Genre: Young Adult (Paranormal/Fantasy Romance/Christian Fiction)
Date Published: May 29, 2012
Publisher: Thomas Nelson Fiction

The Blurb:
Once you’ve seen, you can’t unsee. Everything changes when you’ve looked at the world through . . .

ANGEL EYES

Brielle’s a ballerina who went to the city to chase her dreams and found tragedy instead. She’s come home to shabby little Stratus, Oregon, to live with her grief and her guilt . . . and the incredible, numbing cold she can’t seem to shake.

Jake’s the new guy at school. The boy next door with burning hands and an unbelievable gift that targets him for corruption.

Something more than fate has brought them together. An evil bigger than both of them lurks in the shadows nearby, hiding in plain sight. Two angels stand guard, unsure what’s going to happen. And a beauty brighter than Jake or Brielle has ever seen is calling them to join the battle in a realm where all human choices start.

A realm that only angels and demons—and Brielle—can perceive.

My Review:
Angel Eyes is the first book in the Angel Eyes Trilogy by Shannon Dittemore. I've had my eye on this gook for a while, and I've finally read it! I don't know why I waited so long. The story was wonderfully put together with well built characters and a thought out plot line. I think Brielle is someone we can all relate to when we've had losses in our lives. We question and doubt everything just like she does. Jake is lovable from the start. Brielle and Jake are still getting to know each other. I think they are adorable, and I'm excited to see how they grow together. Brielle has a lot of information to process about herself and everything she thought she knew about the world. Shannon Dittemore's debut novel was a treasure to read. Angel Eyes is a beautiful story of hope, not just for its characters, but for the reader as well.
