Not particularly bad in any specific way but it just wasn't original.
I've read it all hundreds of times before. So I guess it's more of a me-problem?

The following is a slightly spoilery trope summary of this book but nothing major really.

MC with murdered family is the last living Phoenix gets framed for horrific crime, meets an insanely hot angel in training that is supposed to arrest her, he helps her to clear her name instead.
Lots of shenanigans ensue. We have all the tired and clichéed tropes you would expect. Supa hakka friend, instalust relationship with angst, super speschurl MC with lots of overpowered magic abilities, dead family.
The most annoying part to me was the whole convicted without good evidence bullshit. And that from the angels. It turns out the angels actually knew it was an inside job and just went along with the framing to get to the real culprit but this very much seems like a twist that was added after the fact and doesn't match up at all with the prior plot.
There are no hidden clues about anything. The book could have been discovery-written front to back without ever going back and adjusting anything at all.
