Angelfall (Penryn & the End of Days, #1)
Angelfall (Penryn & the End of Days, #1) | Susan Ee
Its been six weeks since angels of the apocalypse descended to demolish the modern world. Street gangs rule the day while fear and superstition rule the night. When warrior angels fly away with a helpless little girl, her seventeen-year-old sister Penryn will do anything to get her back. Anything, including making a deal with Raffe, an injured enemy angel. Traveling through a dark and twisted Northern California, they journey toward the angels stronghold in San Francisco, where Penryn will risk everything to rescue her sister and Raffe will put himself at the mercy of his greatest enemies for the chance to be made whole again.

I really enjoyed Angelfall and I think it was a great start for the trilogy. It is considered a YA dystopian and as you can guess involves angels. There was a lot of ground to cover getting the characters and plots set up so it's a fast paced book. Angelfall is set around a teen girl named Penryn that's only current mission is to save her little sister from the bad guys.

Continued in comments

RedxoHearts A group of the angels stole her sister Paige from her wheelchair while they were trying to get away. After the fight Penryn stops to help the angel Raffe who is the other prominent character. Even just within the first book they are met with some big challenges including being held by the human resistance. 2w
RedxoHearts I think that Susan Ee does a great job with setting the scenes and bringing it to life in the reader's mind. Without spoiling too much the scenes involving a lab setup towards the end were super creepy and dark. It was an interesting direction to go but I think it was the perfect choice. I can't wait to find out what happens next 2w

Whoa. This was so good!!! Disturbing at the end for sure, but such a great read. A dystopian, post-apocalyptic world terrorized by angels. I should not of put off reading this. It's been one of my kindle unlimited books that that I've marked to read for a long time and kept passing over. I don't recommend the audio version. I switched over to try it out, and immediately switched back to reading.
A quick one day fast-paced read! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I loved Raffe & Penryn, it's always awesome when characters are likable. I also liked how Penryn had quite rough past and life with her family wasn't easy. I really loved their chemistry & banter.

Unbelievable but I loved the atmosphere even more! It was everything I could have imagined and a bit more. It was horrid, a bit gore, dangerous, creepy, dark!

This was really intriguing adventure, even though I hated how the ending left so much open.

For the year 2011 I selected this title for the 40 year reading challenge. I‘ve gotta say it was good but not amazing. ⭐️⭐️⭐️. Not sure why I didn‘t fully connect with this one. Oh well if you want an apocalyptic read this one is for you! #19822022 @Librarybelle

Librarybelle Interesting. I‘ve not heard of this book before…a new to me book from over ten years ago! 3y

I found this book slightly bonkers and more graphic then I thought it would be at times. But I loved a dystopian where the end of the world event just happened rather than so long ago that no one remembers anything. It was nice to learn along with the main character what was going on. Also it felt like the YA angst was at a minimum, and the world building just starting so I‘ll definitely read the rest of the series.

This was so good, I've just ordered the rest of the series! It was a bit slow going at first but then it suddenly picked up the pace, the chactuers were really cool and there was a lot of world building. Overall I really enjoyed this book, especially the slow burn romance!

Laney @ShyBookOwl it‘s not that it was bad I just found something that was more interesting to me so I stopped reading this book for now. But the part I read seemed like it could turn into something good. 6y

Yeah, this book was not great. It started out really good and interesting ... and went entirely downhill from there. File under “baffled by the hype.”

A little more than halfway through and this book is so MEH. I wish the protagonist had an actual personality. I‘ll finish it but it will take a lot to get me to give it s more than MEH rating. We shall see.

So like, idk why I put book pages on my face... art?? 😅😅

Side note, I absolutely love the Angefall series!! The first book was my favourite but the last two kept up the action and fulfilled my angel craving immensely! This series doesn‘t get enough hype as it should. Have you read it? What did you think?

The angels from above take over Earth in this dystopian book #1. 17 year old Penryn travels with an Angel who‘s wings were cut off by angels in an angel fight. As I write this I know this sounds weird but I really liked this book and will read the other 2 in the trilogy. #Angelfight!

Really enjoyed this book! Sometimes the writing was a bit confusing, but the story is compelling and the last few chapters of the book escalated so fast! I can't wait to read the next one.

All in all, I stand by my initial review. Penryn/Raffe are intriguing characters, & I enjoyed their relationship. Angel politics is fascinating, but we don‘t get to that until the last third of the book! Too much time is wasted on the characters trekking through deserted California. We don‘t need an account of every sigh & leaf crunch, y‘know? Still, this is a really promising start to a fun fantasy/dystopian adventure. ★★★☆☆.

I really loved this book! It kept me interested from the first sentence to the last. I love the main character, Penryn (love that name!!). She is tough, independent, smart. A great main character. I‘m excited to see what develops between her and Raffe. On to the 2nd book! I hope the amazingness continues in the series.

Just finished Angelfall. The storyline was unique and I loved the characters. I was definitely not anticipating the plot twist in the end and was overall surprised by how the book ended. Cannot wait to get my hands on the next two books.

I'm pretty split on this. Part of me wants the rest of the series RIGHT NOW and part of me feels disappointed by the main character.
