My rating: 5 stars
I just had an outburst of
emotion after reading Hallowed. I felt really sad while reading this mainly
because all the characters are suffering from sadness and pain. Negative vibes
consumed me and even if the ending is really okay, part of me feels really gloomy
every time I think about the grievances the characters went through.
I loved this book as much as
I loved Unearthly – but unlike the 1st book, there is a vast difference between
the two. Unearthly focused more on Clara’s unveiling her Angel side while
Hallowed is she’s getting used to being a special Angel.
In book 1, Clara wasn’t able
to fulfill her mission. Yes, she was able to save Christian from the fire, but
it turned out that Christian is also an angel whose mission is to save Clara. I
was kind of upset when I found out that Christian is also partly an angel,
because I have a great feeling that in the end, the two would end up together.
Since Clara wasn’t able to
fulfill her mission to save Christian, she knew well that there would be
underlying consequences. She pretty messed up her real mission and ended saving
Tucker first from the forest fire, and went to Christian after her mother said
so.
Clara struggles with an appalling
revelation too. Someone she loves will die
in a matter of months, and she thought that it was Tucker who’s supposed to die
as a part of her consequences for not fulfilling her mission. She was too
focused trying to prevent Tucker from dying but it turned out that her mother
is the one who’s destined to die.
Jeffrey’s mysterious side started
to show up on this book too. It turned out apparently that he was the one who
started one of the forest fires where Tucker was trapped. It was part of his
vision, and he was supposed to save Tucker from the fire but everything had
changed after Clara’s saves Tucker from the fire.
The love triangle is intense
on this book - while Clara is very much in love with Tucker Avery, Christian
Prescott keeps on saying that both of them belong together. But since Clara is
very much in love with Tucker, she keeps on rejecting Christian. But in the
end, Clara & Tucker had to let go of each other because they know deep inside
that their relationship can never be normal. Clara feels that Tucker doesn’t
deserve her and what he needs is a normal girl.
