Branded (Fall of Angels, #1)

** spoiler alert **
It was nice to slow down after reading so much fast fantasy. I’ve not read many angel themed books, but if they’re as good as this I may get into them a fair bit!
The idea of the trials (up into Heaven or down into Hell) and branding with the X before the wings burst forth was pretty awesome. There were one too many dreams at one point, making it a little repetitive. And I was a tad confused why Alex fell so madly in love with her. Cole made sense, a little, but not Alex. He was sweet though, as was their slow burn romance. Sal felt a tiny bit like a spare part. She was just ... there. You could have carved her out and it would have made no difference to the story line, but she was a fun character. I admit I took long breaks between reading this book. I could put it down, but always after I delved into another, would I pick it up again needing to finish the story.
Keary has a wonderful gift with description, and I will be reading the second.
