maria_rb 's review for:
End of Days
by Susan Ee
Because of the level of anticipation for this book, I think my expectations were very high. It does all is the things I wanted it to do for the plot, yet also felt like that's all it was doing: going through the motions to finish the story out. I wanted more interaction to show Pennryn and Raffe's relationship and friendship developing. But there was a lot of plot and adventure and more about Belial (sorry, I listened to the audiobook so don't know spelling) than about Raffe and Pennryn.
SPOILER ALERT:
I didn't feel that the characters grew as much as I would have preferred, and had a hard time reconciling that Raffe and Pennryn could have a relationship on equal terms in the 2-3 weeks that they've known each other. Others will no doubt love the ending and the way in which they are able to bridge the human-angel gap in so short a time despite Raffe's age and wisdom and Pennryn's adolescence. Maybe I would have felt better about it if she were older than 17, but I don't know. Maybe I just wanted to see more of why Raffe would change his mind so suddenly. That felt rushed and somewhat inauthentic to me.
