Bayley's Reviews > Kiss an Angel

My brain is on fire. I am so very into this book.

I am not sure how to appropriately or adequately talk about this book. I kind of feel compelled to list this books sins as a way to buffer it from my very very big feelings towards this book. I don't think this is a good impulse and I don't really think I would do a good job. I also don't think I am going to do a good job talking about what I love about this book.

I knew basically every beat of the plot going into this book, I listened to an episode of the Shelf Love podcast where Emma guested and they talked about this book in detail, so I knew what events were coming for me in this book. This in no way made me disconnect from the emotionality of this story, it was truly just so effecting!

This book also has a lot of elements that are objectively wild but it feels sort of cheapening to highlight these factors when they aren't what makes the book so good.

I just really love romance that isn't afraid to have characters knowingly do harm to each other, and romance where despite that harm you still believe in the couple. Also Daisy is my new best friend, she's crazy and I love her.

I laughed, I cried, I snuck away from important things to read a single page because I just needed a little bit more of this book. I am so excited for future me who gets to reread this.
