I just finished this book after spending all night reading it and it is amazing. The characters don't change in S.L. Naeole's books. They grow and they grow naturally. So much goes on in this book. It is a roller coaster of emotions and events and it just grabs you from the beginning and even when you get off, you're holding on to the handles because you don't want to leave. I swear the next book can't come soon enough!

Can't say i didn't expect this one to turn out better. I'm giving it a 3.5 because the plot thickens. Yeaaa.. it totally thickens. It's like the point of this whole series is to reveal secrets after secrets. I didn't particularly love it but i definitely don't hate it.
I didn't like the main character from the start of the series.. i didn't suddenly like her now. I'm glad that she found out about things that was hidden from her for years and that she was finally showing some backbone but, i stil...more

SIGH! Well... let's start with the hardest part. It had been a while since I read the first two books, so I felt kinda clueless on a lot of the accepted parts of the story. (Like what exactly is "turning?" I remember something about becoming immortal? But this book doesn't explain that at all, and references it a LOT.) There was also a lot of backstory that could have been refreshed easily and wasn't.
On that point, let me say that there were a LOT of confusing details that were all dumped out at...more

I loved the other books in this series and was very disappointed in this one. I felt that her writing quality was not as good and got so tired of her using the word "sans." I have never been so frustrated with the direction of a book before and I read many. In fact, I've never written a review before but felt compelled to do so this time.

You have to give S.L. Naeole credit for going against the wishes and wants of her readers. I read this book three times before I decided to give it a rating. The first time I read it, I hated it. I will not hide my disappointment in the development of the character of Grace.
Without adding any spoilers, I will say that the decisions she makes at the end of the book went completely against my expectations. I was angry and unabashedly disgusted. And then I decided to read the first two books again...more

I've never wanted to write a book review before. I don't think I even did a single book report in school. But this book had me thinking so many different things and thinking about it when I should have been working that I had to put my thoughts down on paper and then put them on here because I know more people read this than the amazon stuff.

I am going to write this review trying to make it as spoiler free as possible. However just a warning I may have a few things in here that will give away part of the storyline.
This has been a wonderful series thus far however it still hasn’t hit the five star mark for me. I am in love with the story line of Angels however there are issues I have struggled with in each of the books. I guess my biggest problem is when I think of Angels I think they should be good and holy. In this series you deal...more

I really liked how it ended, I love all the romantic scenes, but...
Grace was a little bit TOO annoying. Why did she have to make a huge speach every time something important was about to happen? The first 2 times, it was ok, but then I just didn't feel like reading "I want to be normal bla bla" "Oh this is my fault, just kill me already bla bla" GOD! I just wanted to slap her. And she should be angry at Robert for being away so much, he should be furious at her for what she did. I got it, they'r...more

This gets 5 stars because of the ending. It was AMAZING! Seriously it had a wonderful ending.
Anyway, at first I was cautious because the first and second book didn't really keep my attention. There were certain times I had to stop reading because I got bored. But when I started reading this it didn't take me long to get halfway through this.

WHAT an amazing, twisted, heart wrenching, soul eating, time consuming BOOK!
O_O
I hardly put it down... The thing I loved most about Black Halo was that there were so many new twists and turns! So many surprising things you would have never guessed are revealed in this book.
EVERYTHING CHANGES!!!!!
Also, I despised this book. Especially the ending. Not so much as the last words that they said to eachother before the book ended, but more the fact of that thing STILL REMAINED! That's so upsetting, th...more

Este libro si que me sorprendió, nunca llegué a pensar todo lo que sucedió, estuvo lleno de muchaaaas emociones... Este Ángel es muy bello y ya quiero saber más de la historia!
Black Halo continues the romantic story of Robert and Grace. Naeole has created a detailed story of angels and human that will test readers to expand their imaginations to its limits. The story continues to build in this third installment, but unfortunately seems to hit some obstacles. The flow of the previous two books were ever building and a continuous uphill mount; although in Black Halo it appears that the story hangs up on complications of an angel and human romance. While I loved the stor...more
I didn't like the way that Grace kept pushing Robert away and yet couldn't stop having thoughts of him all the time. I mean, if you really wanted to break it off with him, then push him away completely. Don't waste your time and energy pushing him away but finally relenting in the end. Bleh. Whatever.
I like how things were going in this book. The troubles that couldn't stop coming in their way. The ending was unexpected. But I love it enough not to hate it. It was brilliant, yes. Like I said, w...more

Lo primero que puedo decir de este libro es que la autora en verdad quiere que me de un ataque al corazón realmente! fueron muchas emociones las que senti, realmente me volvi adicta al libro no podia parar de leerlo hasta que terminara.
Aunque debo confezar que Grace de nuevo me saco de quicio casi la ahorco :P mientras que Robert Uff me encanto fue tan romantico y tan el!
Definitivamente fue maravilloso el libro me encanto no puedo esperar para leer el cuarto! ♥

Grace keeps growing stronger the more hurt and lies that she experiences ... The characters keep growing both on love and hate ... The tension just oozes from the pages and makes it to where you can't stop wanting to know what's going to happen next ... It had me laughing, crying, and biting my nails ... I am excited to find out how this story ends as I just started reading Grace of Day
Favouraite one so far! LOVED the 'half breed' thing going on. Only wish Lark couldve been in it more, shes lost her feistiness i loved about her. Stacey broke my heart, love her so much. Was so glad she didn't die, but intrigued about what she has become and how she will develop.
As i said another amazing sequel! Hope the final one can live up to the 5 stars this series deserves!

Once again, this series has not let me down, but has exceeded my expectations. Such a beautiful story between a mortal girl, who has spent her life not fitting in and rejected in love with an angel who brings out her best. This is now my favorite series. It will be bitter sweet to read Grace of Day, the final book.
Grace's world is thrown into chaos as she tries to find out the truth about herself, and everyone she has ever been exposed to in her life. My suggestion to those who are going to delve into this book, definatly read it slowly. Take time to absorb all the information the author gives you and digest it before you move on. You will appreciate the knowledge later on as you continue along Grace's journey. Enjoy it as much as I have!
I enjoyed it. But it had sooooo many editing mistakes. And it had confusing things happening, which she didn't explain as much as I'd hope...but maybe that's for the next book.
There seemed to be more language in this book. And well there was at least one scene I skipped over parts of since it was a little risque.

The perfection of the simplicity! the book was absolutely amazing! Robert and grace have to pass many obstacles until they'll be together with the whole meaning of this word and all the ways. They reached deaths door but they have one more chance to bo together! I can't wait to read the great finnal even though stories like Grace and Roberts never ends....
This series continues to improve with each book. I found that I could not put this book down and read it in pretty much one sitting. I did find myself getting frustrated with it just as did the previous ones for much the same reason - this could have been shorter and just as good and most likely better with some good editing. I am looking forward to reading the final book in this series. I am also very glad that I kept reading the series even through the frustration and look forward to reading m...more
This was by far my favorite of the series. This one brought lots of tears for me ... Glad to finally have answers and I'm glad I no longer hate Grace (well I never did but books 1 & 2 made it pretty tough to pity her)
Looking forward to book 4
Looking forward to book 4
I have to say that the Grace Series has totally surprised me! i stumbled through this series by searching for the next awesome series to read after Twilight and Night Huntress. Even though these series are completely different, i have to say this has been the best since Twilight in a YA series realm. The events that took place in this book gave like a whole turn and i was not able to believe my eyes while reading. I was able to feel and imagine every single description on these events and was to...more
It was very good. The fight scene was very confusing and several other parts i was confused. The book was well written and very long. I'm hoping the fourth book fixes all the confusing parts and i am looking forward to finding out how Grace's and Robert's story ends.
Oh dear banannas!! I loved this book it has so many twists and turns absalutely AWESOME!! I'm gonna be sad to read the 4th and final book just because i will miss the characters so much :( So glad i found this series!
Amazing!!!!! This book was excellent, it had me reading on the edge I'd my seat!! So many twists and turns and the ending left me hanging but this book was incredible and I will read it again and again.
If you liked the last two books, you will love this one. I really loved it. Because if you are like me and think that you already figured it out, think twice because you will find that this book it has a lot of surprises that you will never expected.
That Grace feels betrayed for Robert it’s nothing compared with what destiny has reserved for her and Robert. And this time both will have to be strong enough to confront their enemy and finally find the true of what makes Grace so special.
