Fallen

Author:  Lauren Kate

There’s something achingly familiar about Daniel Grigori.

Mysterious and aloof, he captures Luce Price’s attention from the moment she sees him on her first day at the Sword & Cross boarding school in sultry Savannah, Georgia. He’s the one bright spot in a place where cell phones are forbidden, the other students are all screw-ups, and security cameras watch every move.

Fallen is a great book I don't know WHY people think it's dull. When I first read it I never placed it down to stop. I asked a friend of mine to read it and she did. After a few pages she said it was boring and my heart shattered.

This book is beautifully written between the romance of  17-year old Lucinda and a fallen angel named Daniel that keeps going on till she dies EVERY time of a number of years...which then comes back.

It's a very strange tale,yes....but it's a AWESOME book so why not give it a try or another go? You never know what might happen in this book~

This book did nothing for me. At all. I read it for school last year, and even if I didn't need to return it to the school library, I had no compulsion whatsoever to finish it. And when I say that, it's a rare thing. A book has to be pretty dull for me to not want to see how the story ends.

I didn't read much of the book, but the story didn't grab me, or make me even slightly interested. In fact, the only emotion it managed to bring out in me at all, was feeling depressed. I don't mind reading sad books, but there is a difference between a really depressing book and a sad story. The story seemed predictable, and I don't know if there was a twist later on, but I didn't remotley care about findng out. The character didn't seem strong and independent and there was no foundation for the romance that was promised to follow. Judging from the reviews, some people actually like this book, and but I would not consider recommending this book to anyone. Perhaps, it just wasn't my kind of book, but I found the entirety of what I read to be completely unengaging and weak.

I thought this was an awfully slow book with a good storyline.

I forced myselfto finish this book. 

I wish it was more interesting.

Styled with its own original heroine and backgroud, this story resembles a painting coming alive. It is certainly unlike any other romantic/ paranormal books. Lauren Kate has demonstrated the perfect balance between horror and romance with the tale of a girl who rediscovers the boy who she fell in love with. It is mesmerising, breath-taking and addictive.
