L.A Weatherly

Angle, book one of The Angle Trilogy and Angle Fire book two by L.A Weatherly. The first book I did enjoy, I wouldn’t say it was a great story; I found that in moments it dragged but the essence was good. I liked the main character, willow with the ‘I’m different then others and have special ability’s’ theme going on. There’s also the love story, with is a most in teen fiction, well, so it seems. The love story is that the second main character, Alex is out to get rid of (kill) Willow and then falls in love, and that’s basically it. It’s presented as dark edgy and ’irresistible ‘I wouldn’t say it was practically edgy a bit of fighting and romance. I wouldn’t say that’s edgy. I have seen rather good reviews for this book, but for me it lacked the oomph, that part of the book that gets you emotional. The book is written in both first person (from willows point of view) and third person (from Alex’s point of view). This is an interesting way of producing a story with a promising writing style but I don’t think her books are for me.
Then the second book came out and I thought ‘why not I’ve read the first might as well see how it progresses’. It took me so long to complete the second book, its actually surprising that I did. I kept on thinking I’ve started might as well finish; I picked it up read a page and put it down and repeated. It bored me. I kept on getting distracted by better books…much better books. The action sense took to long, the love sense seemed to drag on and I just didn’t feel a connection. A love triangle built and it was just silly and a bit pointless because it wasn’t much of a triangle. I felt she just tried to stretch it out. The story could have been more thrilling if she compacted it a bit. I doubt I will read the third, if the second is anything to go by. It’s a pity; it does not have a good bass story she just has to think about what’s important in her stories and what’s not. I would say try the first it’s an ok story but the second would be disappointing
