Beautiful Beings, Heaven and Hell: Review


From Goodreads:
An ethereal exclusive boarding school with unearthly beautiful students...Lux, a rebel girl, who has been seeing demons and angels since she was two...Asher, the bad boy on a motorcycle who sketches angels...Brax Kingsley who instantly captures Lux's eyes when she moves into the neighborhood...And the Hatchett twins whose parents were murdered, leaving them a ridiculous fortune...All brought together...all part of the puzzle behind the Beautiful Beings.

From Goodreads:
Lux Collins now know what are the Beautiful Beings and the danger they pose to everyone. All her training and experience in the world cannot prepare her for what she cannot help: falling in love with one. Her enemy, her forbidden love. Can she break the curse on him and save him from his fate or will their love be doomed forever?

My Review:
Oh, it was really great to read these books! You would think being called Beautiful Beings, that they would be the good guys. But they weren't. And it was really great to watch the fight against them, and then try to bring at least one onto the side of good!

I really enjoyed reading about these characters, they were interesting, and different, and I can tell why this author is so prolific, because she must be in fear of readers busting in her door demanding more books! Just so good!

I didn't like so much that there were three guys that she pretty much fell in love with, pretty much at the same time, and was going around kissing all of them. It was a bit annoying, that she would behave like that, because it wasn't nice to anyone involved!

Sure, she made some not so good choices, but there is hope that she'll make some better thought out choices, choices that are better overall, because these are only the first two books in the series, there are two more, yeah!

I enjoyed these books a lot, they were great angel books!
