Publication date: January 8th 2019
Genres: Contemporary, Thriller, Young Adult

After finally taking down Torres, her mother’s merciless killer, Reagan and Luke have two targets on their backs and are forced into hiding. With new names, looks, and cover stories, they’re living quiet, “safe” lives, but revenge comes at a steep price. Reagan’s actions continue to haunt the pair and put the people they love in danger.

When Reagan discovers her best friend Harper is on the verge of being kidnapped, she and Luke defy Black Angel orders and risk blowing their cover to save their friend. After the rescue attempt goes wrong, the three friends must go on the run with an army of assassins hot on their trail and the list of trust-worthy Black Angels getting smaller and smaller. Will they make it out alive? And at what cost?

Fast-paced and suspenseful, this is the explosive finale of Kristen Orlando’s Black Angel Chronicles series.

I love this! I have a mix of songs that I think that

a) go perfectly with the theme of the book and

b) Reagan listens to or would be into.

Theme Songs for THE BLACK ANGEL CHRONICLES:

So I clearly spend a lot of time daydreaming about these things. If the book was ever to be turned into a TV Show, this is what I’d want to be the theme song: The Pretender by Foo Fighters. Just go listen to it. It’s amazing.

Now if the book was ever made into a movie, I’d actually pick a different theme song: Hero by Skillet

Wouldn’t that make the most epic trailer song? I can see it all in my head whenever I listen to it. And yes…I do fantasize about these things. Every author does!

Other songs that would make good potential theme songs. Think montage scenes of Reagan kicking major ass or training on YouTube:

My Songs Know What You Do in the Dark (Light ‘Em Up) by Fall Out Boy

Radio Active by Imagine Dragons

Burn it to the Ground by Nickleback

I’m sure I can’t be the only one who does this, but sometimes when I hear a song, I think about how it could fit into a movie or TV show version of something that I’ve written or even just imagined. I’ve been doing it my whole life! If YOU DON’T KNOW MY NAME was ever made into a TV show, I have the opening song and scene in my head. Harper, Luke, Malika and Reagan would each be listening to this song as they get ready for school at each of their respective homes. But of course as the other friends are packing their bags with books, applying makeup or packing a sports practice bag, Reagan is packing her secret weapons and getting all her spy stuff ready to go! The following song is totally what would be playing over that “getting ready for school” montage scene and then in the car as they drive together through New Albany, Ohio to school.

Times to Remember by Dead Sara

Listen to it and tell me that song wouldn’t be awesome. I think about this stuff way too much. A girl can dream, right?

Songs in other chapters/scenes

I’m currently obsessed with this young singer/songwriter out of the UK (my 21-mont-old daughter Samantha requests her songs every time we play music) and I feel like Reagan and Harper would totally be into her and be singing along to her songs in the car:

Uh Huh by Jade Bird  

I feel like Reagan would also be into the band Flyleaf. I particularly like this song for her:

Set Me on Fire by Flyleaf

Reagan has a very eclectic taste in music, so I think she’d be into a wide range of music. Below are songs that are either mentioned across all three of the books or I think would be on one of Reagan’s mixes.

Fake Plastic Trees by Radiohead

Takin’ It to the Streets by Doobie Brothers

That’s The Way by Led Zepplin
