This kind of book is the epitome of a guilty pleasure, but one that may keep you rolling your eyes at the bad writing. While the romance, action, and mythical lore is fun, the writing of the book is mediocre at best. The author comes across as a teenage girl writing fan fiction. She plays on every trope imaginable, and created a female lead character that seems perfect in every way. Can you say boring and predictable? The female lead is beautiful, but doesn't realize it, clever and funny (or rather she says things that aren't funny, but the author has every character laugh at her wit to convince us she's funny), and every guy loves her, whether romantically or as a sister. Another way in which the author seems like a young amateur fan-girl writer is the way she dumps details on you with poor exposition, and describes the physical attributes of every character to you. Did we really need to sit through a scene where 4 female friends get ready to go to a club and we have to hear every detail of how each one did their makeup, hair, and outfit? Really?!

Sometimes the situations the character gets in and the way she reacts seems very unrealistic to me. For example (no spoilers), in one scene where she barely knows her future love interest, he picks her up when she falls on the ground and sets her in his lap with her legs wrapped around his torso. She's facing him, straddling him, and he says "let's talk." and she acts like that's a normal thing for a strange man to do. I was like "What?!" what kind of girl would just go with the flow like it's normal for a stranger to force your legs to wrap around him and sit groin to groin while you "talk." It was obvious that the author was trying to create a steamy situation, but it was just weird and forced. I can't get past the obviousness and predictability from this writer.

In short, if you want a guilty pleasure read where you don't mind rolling your eyes at terrible methods of giving us character description, like "My cheeks are wet, most likely from the tears that escaped my hazel eyes." then have fun with this. If you want a well written book from an experienced author, that keeps you excited to read more, don't bother with this one.

Revelation The Revelation Series Volume 1 Randi Cooley Wilson 9781495391521 Books Reviews

So if you have kindle unlimited the first book Revelation is free. I suggest you read to see if you like it. And then if you do, buy the box set with all 5 books for $9.99. If you buy the additional 4 at the current price of $3.99 each you will spend $15.96. I haven't read past the first book yet but I decided I like it enough to buy the rest.

I admit I am a bit on the fence when it comes to 3 or 4 stars. More so on the 4 stars. The story is good. But as I saw someone else mention in a review it has moments that seem pointless. Same as that other reviewer said I didn't see the point of going into such great detail about how a group of girls go about doing a their hair and makeup for a night out to the extent that it did. A few brief paragraphs would have sufficed.

I also feel as if the main character seems a bit too naive and liked by all. But I can see where this is a way that she may evolve throught the books. It gives us a chance to watch her grow from a young sheltered girl into the destiny she is fated.

Overall the story was good enough to make me want to keep reading. I don't like giving a plot description, you can get that from the book description yourself. Sorry it's a bit of a pet peeve for me when it comes to other reviews but I'm not putting that down, As others like those reviews. And I don't give spoilers if I can help it. So like I suggested in the beginning, try the first book then buy the box set if you want to keep reading!
This story had potential but it was terribly written. The use of the word verbose is crazy. The situations a very unbelievable. At one point, right after the main couple said they didn't like each other he pulls her onto his lap. She is straddling him as if people who barely know each other do this everyday. Eve is the epitome of a Mary Sue. She is super sarcastic and kind of rude to almost everyone. That would be okay if her character developed but it doesn't. She is always snotty with everyone. Even the archangel. I've read better fanfictions.
SPOILERS This book jumps all over the place. In the first half there's more nonsensical heaven vs hell prose than I've ever encountered. I still have no clue about any of it. There's a hell hound, weird blue flames, a fairy realm, gargoyles, archangels, a werewolf, a banshee, and some kind of clan rivalry all within the first 60% of the book. The heroine has no redeeming qualities and in an attempt to come off as a strong female lead, the author has just created a brat who is rude and narcissistic. In one chapter the clan can't tell her anything about who or what she is, and they can't reach the archangel who can. The next chapter apparently they can reach him and he comes right on over. With no proof other than getting attacked by a dog and some dreams, she is simply buying in to everything this group of friends is telling her to be true about her being the one and only special sauce for heaven who is being hunted by the devil. The hero of the book runs so hot and cold, like in back to back sentences, that I find him creepy and definitely not sexy. The author tries to make him sexy... but just succeeds in making him bi-polar. (PC Check I'm not saying bi-polar people aren't sexy!) There's a weird hot cocoa theme that runs throughout, and no shortage of tired tropes around every page - love triagle, the chosen one and only, guy protects the girl who tries to show him she can do it all herself, snotty friend who is only a snot because she cares, the hot bad boy vs the hot good guy, yada, yada, yada. In a nutshell.... this is amateur hour.

That being said - I want to support budding authors. I support creativity, I support big dreams, I support people trying! The author isn't a pro yet, but I see heart and dedication in the writing that you can't teach. Sooooo... this book is only a dollar. Buy it, read it, critique it. That way the author can learn, grow, and get better at the craft! There's talent here, albeit raw.
