Unearthly by Cynthia Hand

I loved this book.  Once I got into it I absolutely could not put it down.  It's about angel-bloods, beings that are part human and part angel. This story is in particular about a split family, the mom being half angel & the dad human. Their kids, Clara & Jeffrey, are quartarians since they're a quarter angel.  The have powers that start to manifest and of course they have the wings. Their destiny is to find their purpose and figure out how they are suppose to help or save or whatever it is they're suppose to do.  Clara gets her vision and figures out where they need to go. So they move from a big city to a small mountain country town. Clara is an outsider and she has to be careful to not let her powers or as the angels call it, Glory, shine through unexpectedly.  When her emotions start to play a part in her destiny and the person she falls in love with, her decision will change everything.  Like I said, I couldn't put this down.  Clara is a good strong female character, there's plenty of mysteriousness and intrigue.  Of course there's a great love story that isn't sappy.  You can really relate to these characters and you can't help but want to know more about the angel stuff.  I loved it.  I'm downloading the second book, Hallowed, after I'm done typing and will start reading!  One of the BEST ones!  Very happy reading!!!!!!
