Summary: Green Angel
Comment: Green Angel is a book that actually benefits from being judge by its cover. It is a beautifully packaged and designed YA book that will call for your attention from its place on the shelf. The story itself is sadly lacking in comparison. The story is hazed by vagueness and repetition. The reader can feel the protagonist changing but the quirky encounters seem to leave more questions than answers. There is also a question of lapsing time. It feels like years have passed when in actuality only a few months. This story might appeal to a YA because of its mysticism and body art but lacks the craft needed for older readers.

Summary: Green Angel Review
Comment: Green Angel by Alice Hoffman is a mystical story about a 15 year old named Green. Green has more than a green thumb. She is so in tune with the natural world that she can literally hear the green beans as they climb the vine and can coax the flowers into blooming. Green's world is forever changed when her family goes off to the city one day and never returns, victims of a horrible fire. Green's world, her garden and her heart are now covered with a thick layer of gray ash. With the help of a ghostly dog, a wise woman, and a mysterious hooded stranger Green is able to slowly clear away the ash. As the countryside begins to once again green up, she discovers that she herself has learned how to live in this strange new world.

Summary: Ashes ashes we all fall down
Comment: This was a very simple, yet creative story. I admit, things happened a little quickly in the beginning, but that's natural for such a short story. It's original, although I couldn't help being reminded of the Aussie show 'The Tribe'...any else agree? Overall, I liked the characters, the descriptions, and the plot. I recommend this book for anyone looking for an interesting and quick read.
