Teen spirit por Francesca Lia Block
The Dangerous Angels books by Francesca Lia Block are some of my all time favourite reads. I've kept up with her other books but none seemed to hit the mark. This one, while having some references that will date it, was better than some previous efforts. I'll remain true to this author and hope she can hit the heights again.
I picked up this book by the cover and I was in love!! this book made me remember so much of greek myth and I'm currently in greek myth so it was such a fun book to read.
Absolutely adored, i was afraid this book wouldn't meet the standards i gave it or add up to how much i enjoyed the first book but boy was i wrong!! highly recommend but do read the first book before this one.
Not as good as the other Weetzie Bat books. The amount of magic is jacked way up to compensate for a less developed main character, and this basically takes over and obscures the plot.
