There are parts that are quite good, but sadly they're mostly when the protagonist is absent and like much better books the protagonist is around a lot. The basic structure and story could be OK but the protagonist is meant to be a goth-fallen angel and is, instead, the archetypal emo. There is nothing cute or fun in there - he's a whining, self-absorbed idiot. Someone needs to take him, ideally by the throat, and shake him violently. Sadly it doesn't happen.
And then there's the sex. Straight, gay, you name it... It's a lot longer winded than "they shagged" but actually less emotionally and erotically charged than that would be - simply because the writing is structured to make it almost as unerotic as it's possible to imagine.
I don't know what was going on in the author's life when she wrote this, but she has written other books that do all of this so much better. This is really disappointing and probably best avoided. Unless you're an emo. ( )
