― Shannon MessengerLet the Sky Fall


Ramblings (Review):

Really do you need any other words after a gif of two adorable minions? can anything else describe awesomeness better than that still here are a few words; This book was so good I am at a loss of words, perfect in every way but the best thing about this book was that it was completely original ! No vampires, werewolves, wizards, superheroes, fallen angels or demigods not that I don't like any of these but I had gotten tired reading books based on them and originality when combined with a good plot always wins so of course this book turned out to be amazing. The concept of sylphs or air elemental isn't completely new but still it's sufficiently original and frankly I haven't read a book like this yet. Let The Sky Fall is first person narrative with respect to Audra and Vane. Both of them are quite amazing and complex characters with intriguing back stories. Audra is a strong feisty girl but not invincible ,basically no one is all powerful in this book all characters have there limitations and that is what makes this book so great. There also a depth to the characters that is rarely found in YA novels.

“We were two broken, incomplete people. Now we're one. No one will ever understand me the way she will. No one will ever understand her the way I will.” 

― Shannon MessengerLet the Sky Fall

This book was MIND BLOWING!

There is sufficient amount of humour, romance,  and suspense mixed within the plot. The story is great and a perfect page tuner with a reliable plot. There are a few things tough that had to be more descriptive and detailed specially the ending, there was nothing wrong with it but it was a little confusing. Overall it was an amazing book and I would recommend every YA/Fantasy lover to read it.
P.S. I can't wait for the next one !!!

Dream Cast: The Selection (Selection Trilogy)

Book Title: The Selection

Type: Trilogy

“True love is usually the most inconvenient kind.”

My Dream Cast:

Max Thieriot as:               Emma Roberts as:               Gregg Sulkin as:

           Aspen Leger                                        America Singer                               Prince Maxon

Why Emma Roberts? Because I think she can play America very well she is a great actor and she has played the rebelish feisty girl many times in several movies also she rocks the red locks.

Why Gregg Sulkin? If anyone has the looks of a prince charming it's him. Naturally he looks regal and prince like with those polished features, he can also play the part of the charming, handsome, caring and softhearted prince very well without a doubt.

Why Max Thieriot? As far as I am concerned he looks pretty much like the Aspen I imagined while reading. Innocent eyes and a ruggish face, he could play the heart broken lover well.
