I pretty much started skimming the book after a hundred pages. I can't believe I even made it that far! It's so bad that it has brought me out of my reviewing shell to say how much I disliked this book. ...more

Truthfully I only finished Fallen because I made myself finish it to try and give it a chance. Oh dear life should I just have put it down and never looked back. I have so many problems with this book its not even funny, but I'll only list a few here.

First but not least, Luce drives me insane. Does she whine? Check! Complain? Check! Fall in love with the first males she sets her eyes on? Check! Do basically nothing and need to be rescued a lot? Check! In addition she is yet another female charac

Wow. Fallen angels with smoldering good looks that are bent on seducing a mortal woman while waging a war of epic proportion...hell yeah! Oh...a review...uhm...smokin' hot fallen angels? Right, already said that. In all seriousness, it was actually a really good book! It had an interesting plotline with just the right amount of mystery to keep you hooked. It builds the characters and continues to add on to the storyline, which gave it more depth than I had expected. Plus, it manages to find a ba ...more
