Mercy wakes on a school bus bound for Paradise, a small town where everyone knows everyone else's business... Or thinks they do. But Mercy has a secret life. She is an angel, doomed to return repeatedly to Earth, taking on a new human form each time she does, in an effort to resolve a cataclysmic rift between heavenly beings. In Paradise, Mercy meets Ryan, an eighteen-year-old whose sister was kidnapped two years ago and is presumed dead. When another girl is also taken, Mercy knows she has to act quickly and use extraordinary powers to rescue her, even if it means exposing her true identity. An electric combination of angels, mystery and romance, Mercy is the first book in a major new series.Be Specific About Out Of Books Mercy (Mercy #1)

I think maybe Jillians got a point about these Australian authors. Seriously, what are they putting in the water down there? And where can I buy me some?!Australian author Rebecca Lims novel Mercy is one of the more interesting books Ive read this year. And at a 111 books and counting, thats really saying something! Complex, gripping and dark, this novel definitely marks another author to watch out for. Mercy, as she calls herself, often finds herself in a new place, in a new life, in a new bodyThe opening paragraph was interesting enough. It showed that the writing was clear and concise, but sadly, it was followed by this massive info-dump on what the main character looks like, and it turns out that shes one of those Im pretty but I dont notice it characters, which makes me groan, since 90% of YA is filled with these characters. Then, she goes on to describe who I can only assume is a potential love interest, because he has far too many far-fetched descriptions like: He is tall,
MERCY Unfortunately I didnt enjoy this novel at all. I found Lims writing style to be quite clunky and the storyline was cliché and unappealing. The idea of Mercy being an exiled celestial has premise, especially with angels being the new vampires, but this fact seems to become lost in the story and besides vague mentions of dream-like encounters with Luc and others, the reader is left more confused than ever. The start of the novel was baffling and the characters like Tiffany and the choirboys

She'll be living in them, controlling their speech and actions and

This is how this book made me feel. Not like I've read a ton of crappy books this year because I've enjoyed most of the books I've read, but this was pretty creative. Different. This is definitely one of my favorite books of the year. I actually haven't read many angel novels, but this series I'm definitely enjoying. I downloaded this for my Kindle for PC. But now I want the actual book for my collection. Just too cool not to have in my bookshelves. What I really liked about this book was the
