I want this!
Freya dreads turning fourteen - the official end of her childhood and time to take up the full duties of a Valkyrie.
Classic angels novel.
This book tells the story of Freya being a Valkyrie. She hates being a Valkyrie, because they can kill a person by touch. After her first reaping, she sets off to the human world to fulfill her promise with the soldier she reaped. And when she is enjoying her stay on the human world, news of the black-winged girl are spreading...
To be honest, I'm not too fond of this book. The story is too focus on the life in the human world. The beginning and the middle of the story is boring...... until the end, it's so good! It's not the angels and demons fantasy fiction, it's all angels, and the dark side is a teenage human boy, how cool is that? I pick up this book because of the cover and when look at the front I was like "hmm... this maybe a good book to read." But when I read to second chapter, POOF! That thought just vanish. I'm rather disappointed because the author has such potential, she could write better than this! I maybe the only one hating this book but... sorry guys! For all of you that liked this book, I'm sorry, it's just not my taste.
