I haven’t read a lot of books where Angels are the focus so it was nice to delve into a slightly different genre. There wasn’t a large amount of character development, and I think this was because everything happened so quickly.

She did have moments where she lost a little bit of her common sense, but other than that I enjoyed her character. Luce wasn’t the strongest of female protagonists, but she certainly wasn’t weak, the fact that she told people how she was feeling was quite refreshing. Not to mention the two boys that steal her heart…well, okay so there’s this one boy and he’s all dark and mysterious but they’ve met each other in a past life and they’re just meant to be. Which is where she meets the crazy Arriane and the bookish Penn. Movie Casting: įallen follows the story of Luce, who has been haunted by shadows all her life, and one day those shadows do something terrible that ensures Luce a place at Sword & Cross – home for delinquents. Granted, this is probably because of the pending movie, and I didn’t want to be left out of any hype.

Things like ‘dark and mysterious boy’ and ‘they’ve met in another life’ not to mention the oh so clichéd ‘love triangle.’Īnd Fallen had all of these things, but for some reason I still felt compelled to read it. There are certain buzzwords in novel descriptions that just seem to put me off the story, because I feel like it’s going to be the same thing as what I’ve read before.
