3.5 starsWorld After ticks a lot of boxes but it simply isn't as strong a story as we were given in Angelfall. I don't know how many books are planned for this series but it seems to fall prey to what would be called "middle book syndrome" in a trilogy. The story plods along, giving the novel a weighted feel which made it easy to put aside at times (something that could never be said for the previous book). My rating leans towards the positive because I did enjoy this sequel - Ee has a talentI was rather disappointed with this sequel because I didnt find it as exciting an action packed as Angelfall. This may have something to do with Raffe and Penryn not being very exciting apart from each other, because for the first half of the book, I struggled to stay interested. On the positive side, the second half does pick up after Penryn and Raffe reunites and the horror aspect that we saw at the end of Angelfall really starts to shine through. Im curious to see where this series is going,
UHHHHHH SO GOOOOOD.This series is just so fast paced and so entertaining that it is impossible to put down! I believe this may be a new fan girl series for me as I am already REALLY attached to the characters! Plus it makes my heart happy to know there are going to be quite a few books in this series :D Also, Raffe is super hot, and that sword is super sassy.
Let me be honest with you, friends - my experience with Young Adult novels, those featuring either postapocalyptic or dystopian themes, and those with any hints of paranormal romances, has been mostly, well, uninspiring, to say the least. But yet I keep digging through the piles of dreck, forgetting the famous misattributed Einstein's definition of insanity, because among the piles of manure there may occasionally be a gem or two.Susan Ee's debut novel, Angelfall, pleasantly surprised me,
Find all of my reviews at: http://52bookminimum.blogspot.com/ I decided to break my own rule of reading Book #2 in a series after finishing Angelfall last year and giving it 3.5 Stars (thats like the equivalent of 7 Stars for most people). Im giving World After a very generous 3 Stars in hopes that the soon-to-be-released Book #3 gets back on track.The problem I have with YA books in a series is there always seems to be so much filler that should have been left on the cutting room floor. While
"Don't talk. You'll just spoil my fantasy of rescuing an innocent damsel in distress as soon as you open your mouth." -RaffeThis book was action-packed, suspenseful, and completely amazing!!! Even better than the first book, shockingly enough. The plot got more complex but also clearer, the characters feelings, and emotions were revealed and the dangers and stakes were heartstoppingly intense and real, which was completely fantastic to read about!!Raffe and Penryn are two awesome, fierce and
*4.5 Stars!*Absence really does make the heart grow fonder...I LOVED this! I went into this sequel with some reserve, fairly unsure of what to expect, and I can honestly say that I fully enjoyed every moment of this suspenseful, action-packed, never predictable, twisted but just plain fun addition!World After picks up directly where Angelfall leaves off, at the peak of chaos and calamity. The story follows Penryn as she unknowingly becomes a warrior for her kind ... fighting for the survival of
