In this sequel to the bestselling fantasy thriller, Angelfall, the survivors of the angel apocalypse begin to scrape back together what's left of the modern world.

When a group of people capture Penryn's sister Paige, thinking she's a monster, the situation ends in a massacre. Paige disappears. Humans are terrified. Mom is heartbroken. Penryn drives through the streets of San Francisco looking for Paige. Why are the streets so empty? Where is everybody? Her search leads her into the heart of the angels' secret plans where she catches a glimpse of their motivations, and learns the horrifying extent to which the angels are willing to go.

Meanwhile, Raffe hunts for his wings. Without them, he can't rejoin the angels, can't take his rightful place as one of their leaders. When faced with recapturing his wings or helping Penryn survive, which will he choose?

If you read last week's post, then you know that the first book in this series, Angelfall, was on my TBR. Well, I read it and now I am OBSESSED. I ordered the second and third books right away and haven't really been able to read much of anything else because Penryn and Raffe are all I can think about! (Raffe is definitely Fictional Boyfriend material, guys. Omg.) I am currently about halfway through World After, and hope to finish it within the next few days.

Author: C.E. Wilson

White Frost has only ever known the darkness. Everything outside of her closed society is The Unknown – a strange and dangerous place accessible to only a chosen few. White’s only glimpse of the world beyond comes from her beloved cousin in the form of mysterious collections of words that hint at astonishing wonders. When an accident upends her simple existence, she’s given an unlikely chance to see the truth for herself. What she finds is greater and more terrible than she could have imagined, and before long she is forced to make the most important choice of her life: does she accept her safe, limited world that she’s known or take a desperate gamble in a world not meant for her with the Boy with Words?

This book was on last weekend's TBR as well, though the goal was only to start it - which I did! I didn't get very far, but I do hope to continue with it this weekend.

What books are you planning on reading this weekend?

Weekend TBR [July 8-10]

I find that working full-time makes my weeks pass in a blur of early mornings, long days, chlorine checks, snow cones, and telling children not to put water on the slide. Also, homework. Always. So, when the weekend finally does arrive, I am always fairly surprised and a little bit disappointed in the fact that we are one step closer to autumn.

This weekend, I will be reading:

1. Angelfall by Susan Ee: I'm currently about halfway through this book and am in. love. Thanks to my experiences with the Hush, Hush quartet, I was more than a little hesitant to pick up another series abut angels, but after hearing some good things and the fact that it has been on my TBR for a few years, I decided to give it a try and am really, really liking it so far. I hope to continue reading it this weekend!

2. The Boy with Words by C.E Wilson: This ebook was sent to me for review a few weeks ago, and since I cannot take my Kindle to work with me, I predict the next few weekends will be spent attempting to finish it and get a review up. It does not seem to be very long, and is one that I am very interested in reading, so I hope to pick it up within the next few days!

What are your weekend reading plans?
