Yet Sam knows she’d be truly crazy to leave the protection of the most popular girls in school. Second-guessing every move, thought, and word makes daily life a struggle, and it doesn’t help that her lifelong friends will turn toxic at the first sign of a wrong outfit, wrong lunch, or wrong crush. But hidden beneath the straightened hair and expertly applied makeup is a secret that her friends would never understand: Sam has Purely-Obsessional OCD and is consumed by a stream of dark thoughts and worries that she can’t turn off. Samantha McAllister looks just like the rest of the popular girls in her junior class. If you could read my mind, you wouldn’t be smiling. She moved his hand so it would be on her nipple? I didn’t find it at all sexy or steamy but slightly creeped out at Penryn’s actions and Raffes response.

Especially when they’re lying in bed together, it turned a bit too desperate for me. I really enjoyed their relationship because of their intense chemistry, but at some parts, I was disappointed. The romance in this series has always been subtle yet powerful. However, there were many disappointing scenes. The story, pacing, and my overall excitement gives this book 3 stars. He’s not just an archangel he’s a warrior. Penryn has always been an independent and strong female character, but in this final installment, Susan Ee takes her badass quality to a whole new level. Raffe, on the other hand, has always been a fierce believer but in this book, the battle between his responsibilities and his heart gets tougher. The character development in this book is very profound.

While WA was good for the last 30%, this whole book was a mix of really good/really disappointing. While Word After left me disappointed, I’m not gonna lie so did this.

It begins right where World After left off-Raffe with Penryn in his arms, flying, and Paige sitting on Beliel’s body which is being carried by scorpion-tailed locusts.
