The Dangerous Angels books by Francesca Lia Block are some of my all time favourite reads. I've kept up with her other books but none seemed to hit the mark. This one, while having some references that will date it, was better than some previous efforts. I'll remain true to this author and hope she can hit the heights again.
I picked up this book by the cover and I was in love!! this book made me remember so much of greek myth and I'm currently in greek myth so it was such a fun book to read.

I was unable to prevent myself from casting Mel as Weetzie. Heh.
