From the start, she takes full ownership of taking care of her family and is especially protective and caring towards her little sister, Paige. Penryn – Brave, Determined, Stubborn Penryn is definitely one of those characters who you grow to admire throughout the course of the novel.
Moreover, they also fly away with Paige and Penryn is willing to do whatever it takes to get her sister back, including making a deal with the enemy angel. These warrior angels end up badly injuring their victim, an angel named Raffe, and they go as far as to even tearing off his wings. One night when they are trying to find a safe shelter, she witnesses a huge struggle between a group of angels. Penryn and her family, including her mother and her wheelchair bound little sister, and trying to live through this world just like any other survivor. Humans are now fighting to survive from the gangs which terrorize the streets during the day and the supernatural strike fear into their hearts during the night. In summary, Angelfall starts off approximately six weeks after the apocalypse where angels have descended onto the Earth and demolished the entire world. I think Susan did a great job in providing us the correct amount of detail to immerse the readers into the story without having to make us feel that we are in an impractical world. OH MY GOODNESS!!! I had a feeling I was going to like this book from all the positive reviews but I never thought I would love it this much!! This is definitely one of the best post-apocalyptic books I have ever read!! Despite being a quick read, you never feel that the world is underdeveloped or out of place.
Genre: Young Adult (a few violent scenes)
