Celestra Series Review So Far

Hey,

Today i thought i would do something different as i am still putting down my book ideas in writing.....that will come in a few days.

Im going to do a review on a series im reading at the moment, its the Celestra series by Addison Moore. I believe its a teenage fiction based around angels. Again its in the paranormal romance genre lol, i'll never get away from it!! I am currently on book 3 which is called Burn so i will basically be reviewing the first 2 books which are Ethereal and Tremble. Total of 8 books in the series but book 7 is split into 2 parts so i guess there's really 9. 

So far so good for a paranormal series, the books are left on cliffhangers to make you want to read the next one and so on. I think it might get a bit long winded towards the end though as its not a particularly fast paced story. Its based primarily around Skyla messenger who finds out in book 1 that she is descended from a group of angels called celestra, they are deemed the most dangerous so a lot of other factions try to kill them off. There are 4 different kinds with different powers. She is in fact a pure of her kind which makes her more sought after. There is of course a love triangle as there always seems to be these days. As she has just moved house (into a dead celestra's house no less) with her mum and sister and her new step family. Its helpful to add she never gets on with her stepfather and there is always a lot of friction between them. The 2 guys are called logan and gage and they are cousins. She meets logan and falls for him, he is a celestra too and as its too dangerous for 2 celestras to be together he asks his cousin gage to pose as her boyfriend as he is from another faction. The problem is she falls for him too! He says he has had a vision from the future about them marrying! Logan decides to step back and allow gage and skyla to have a proper relationship but she always pines after him. Enter another male, who is a sector (still not 100% sure what this is but its more powerful than an angel). He poses as a school teacher and he wants skyla to be his wife also lol! Nice to be popular!! So on and on it keeps going round in circles and she's still kissing them all to find answers.

This has been the main storyline so far, its more of a romance at the moment and not a lot of action but it implies we are getting closer and closer to war and characters are being found out. Its an interesting read, i think i will do a more in depth review after i have read burn as its harder to review 2 books at a time :)

More tomorrow...................................
