she speaks to angels review

"She Seaks to Angels" by Ami Blackwelder is a Young Adult romance/paranormal.  It combines the age old story of good versus evil along with Hollywood's favorite love story where the weird girl gets the ultra hot new guy.  I have read Blackwelder before and liked her book "The Day the Flowers Died" much better. TDTFD was extremely well researched to the point of the telling of the story was almost in a real time sense.  "Angels" seems forced.  She is trying too hard on this one.  Sometimes it seems like she wants to say a certain word, but has no reason to, but she sticks it in there anyway.  Even when the boy jumps from the building, she fails to make me care.  Ever.  She misses the mark here.  It's been done before, time to pick different plot.  I received this book for free from www.librarything.com.
