The cold air whispers past, turning my tears to icy droplets against my cheeks.

In Soul Corrupted, the sequel to Soul Crossed, life in Heaven isn’t all "happily ever after" for Josh and Grace. Now Guardian Angels, they are entrusted with finding and saving the next potential Antichrist. But Grace is consumed with worry about her family, which is dealing with the aftershocks of her death. She's particularly concerned about her brother Noah, who has turned down a dangerous path of drugs and violence—and she's frustrated by the rules of Heaven, which forbid her from contacting them. 

Josh has troubles of his own. A former Demon, he questions his ability to guide troubled souls to the light. When he discovers that Noah made a deal with Lucifer and has even been hanging around with Josh’s old Demon pal, Keira, he makes a forbidden counter-deal with the Devil to save Noah's soul. Josh's side of the bargain? He has to sever his relationship with Grace.

Josh and Grace's world is about to spin out of control, testing the limits of true love and blurring the border between Heaven and Hell.

Soul Corrupted is the second installment in Lisa Gail Green’s Of Demon and Angels series, which started with Soul Crossed.

Erster Abschnitt:
Hell looks like Death Valley.
That's my first thought as I realize I'm standing in the center of a vast expanse of hard, flat ground, cracks running like claw marks as far as I can see.

One Demon. One Angel. One Soul. Josh lived a reckless, selfish life. So when he dies, assuming the role of a powerful, soul-corrupting Demon to escape the eternal torments of Hell is an easy choice. His first soul assignment seems like a piece of cake: the mortal Camden is already obsessed with weapons, pain, and torture. If only Josh wasn't distracted by Cam's beautiful friend, Grace. Grace never expected to die violently at age sixteen, but now she's an Angel, responsible for saving a soul. She can already see past Camden's earthly flaws, so the job should be easy. If only that handsome playboy Josh would stop getting in the way... It's forbidden for an Angel to be with a Demon, so if Josh and Grace can't resist each other, the results will be disastrous. And only one can claim Cam's soul.

,,(...) I have faith in you, Grace. Just be careful. It can be hard for a new Angel to see evil even when it's right under her nose. You want to believe the best in people, and that is your greatest strength. Bur it can also be your down-fall''
I drink in every word he says, but one thought buzzes in my head in my head long after he's said good-bye. He believes in me. (eBook, S.72)

1. Welches Buch liest du gerade und auf welcher Seite bist du?

Ich lese gerade das eBook ,,Soul Crossed - Of Demons and Angels 1'' von Lisa Gail Green und bin auf der Seite 73 von 222.

2. Wie lautet der erste Satz auf deiner aktuellen Seite?

I pat the ground with the shovel, then wipe my hands on my jeans

3. Was willst du unbedingt aktuell zu deinem Buch loswerden?

Die Idee des Buches finde ich interessant, jedoch kommt die Umsetzung nicht ganz an meine Erwartungen ran. Die einzelnen Kapitel sind sehr kurz und wechseln sich mit der Sichtweise von Grace und Josh ab. Das finde ich an sich gar nicht so schlimm, nur sind zwischen den Kapiteln manchmal große Zeitsprünge. Der Text ist schwerer zu verstehen als andere englische Bücher, aber sobald man sich daran gewohnt hat, wird es einfacher. Mal gucken, wie die Geschichte sich weiter entwickelt.

4. Gibt es ein buchiges Event in diesem Jahr auf das ihr euch besonders freut, oder gab es mal was in der Vergangenheit, was euch so sehr begeistert habt, dass ihr es euch ganz bald mal wieder wünschen würdet?

Eigentlich nicht. Ich wäre zu gerne bei der Leipziger Buchmesse dabei gewesen, nur leider ist Leipzig zu weit von meinem Wohnort entfernt und an dem Wochenende hatte ich sowieso keine Zeit. Aber irgendwann gehe ich schon noch zu der Buchmesse, vielleicht ja auch schon im nächsten Jahr. Ansonsten freue ich mich immer über Erscheinungstermine von langersehnten Büchern. Im April ist das zum Beispiel der 24.04, weil an dem Tag ,,Opal'' erscheint.
