Even Though I Knew the End, by C. L. Polk (fantasy prose, 2022)
"I was a child when Haraniel first came to me. They watched over me for years. Just a thought away. I understood what they were eventually and what they hoped I would do for them. And I did. I offered to be their host."
Blurb: A disgraced warlock and her angel-possessed girlfriend get pulled into a serial killing mystery in Chicago, only to discover things are not what they appear.
Why is it worth your time?: It's good! Short, snappy, with a solid bittersweet ending. The angels in this book tend towards the more eldritch side.
Plural Tags: nonhumans [angels], metaphysical, switching, abuse not mentioned, possession
Content Warnings: This is a murder mystery, so people die badly in it! Others involve spoilers; see comments.
Accessibility Notes: Available in paper, ebook, and audio formats.
Misc. Notes: Won a Nebula! Also nominated for a bunch of other awards.
