Hallowed is the second book of Cynthia Hand's Unearthly series.
For months Clara Gardner trained to face the fire from her visions, but she wasn't prepared for the choice she had to make that day. And in the aftermath, she discovered that nothing about being part angel is straightforward as she thought.
Now, torn between her love for Tucker and her complicated feelings about the roles she and Christian seem destined to play in a world that is both dangerous and beautiful, Clara struggles with a shocking revelation: Someone she loves will dies in a matter of months. With her future uncertain, the only thing knows for sure is that the fire was just the beginning.
The Breakdown:
1. Hallowed should be called secrets. Everyone in this book is keeping secrets it seems. Hand does a great job of slowly revealing each secret, and a few of them are quite the surprise when you learn them.
2. Team Tucker! I am thoroughly and completely in love with Tucker Avery. Not that Christian is a bad guy. In fact, he is perfectly nice, but I get the feeling the reason he likes Clara is because he feels they belong together due to their shared heritage, not because he really loves her. Tucker on the other hand is completely gone for her. Plus he is a rugged cowboy, and how is that not hot?
3. Have your box of tissues ready for this one. I spent the last third of the book with tears in my eyes. Clara goes through a lot emotionally in this book, both her own emotions and having empathy giving her other's emotions.
