Book Review: Fallen In Love by Lauren Kate

Title:  Fallen In Love Author:  Lauren Kate Series:  Fallen, #3.5 Pages:  201 Publisher:  Doubleday Date of Publication:  2nd February 2012 Source:  Review* Synopsis from Goodreads: Unexpected. Unrequited. Forbidden. Eternal. Everyone has their own love story. And in a twist of fate, four extraordinary love stories combine over the course of a romantic Valentine's Day in Medieval England. Miles and Shelby find love where they least expect it. Roland learns a painful lesson about finding-and losing love. Arianne pays the price for a love so fierce it burns. And for the first -and last- time, Daniel and Luce will spend a night together like none other. Lauren Kate's FALLEN IN LOVE is filled with love stories . . . the ones everyone has been waiting for. True love never says goodbye . . . My Thoughts: I have mixed feelings about this series - some of the books I've really enjoyed, and then some of the books, I haven't. So I kind of ...

Lauren Kate Cover Reveals!

So, I just got an email from Random House with new covers for both of Lauren Kate's new books coming out in 2012! The first one is Rapture, which is book 4 of the Fallen series: I really like this one - I really like how it's sort of gone back to the theme of the first two covers, how it is all blue and white, or colours from a similar colour scheme instead of lots of different colours like Passion was... If that makes sense. I also like how on this cover she's wearing a white dress instead of a black dress, so I'm wondering if that has any significance...        The other cover reveal was for her other book, Fallen In Love. Fallen In Love is going to be a book set in the world of the Fallen series, but instead of focusing on Luce and Daniel, Fallen In Love will focus on some of the more minor characters, and their romances, like Miles, Shelby, Roland, Arriane and Luce and Daniel. It sounds awesome! And here is the cover:  I really li...

Title: Passion Author: Lauren Kate Series: Fallen #3 Pages: 420 Publisher: Random House Date of UK Publication: 23rd June 2011 Source: Publisher* Synopsis from Goodreads: "Every single lifetime, I'll choose you. Just as you have chosen me. Forever." Luce would die for Daniel. And she has. Over and over again. Throughout time, Luce and Daniel have found each other, only to be painfully torn apart: Luce dead, Daniel left broken and alone. But perhaps it doesn’t need to be that way. . . .

So she begins the most important journey of this lifetime . . . going back eternities to witness firsthand her romances with Daniel . . . and finally unlock the key to making their love last.

Reread: Fallen by Lauren Kate

Title: Fallen Author: Lauren Kate Series: Fallen #1 Pages: 452 Publisher: Doubleday Date of UK Publication: 10th December 2009 Source: Bought Synopsis from Goodreads: 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. Even though Daniel wants nothing to do with Luce–and goes out of his way to make that very clear–she can’t let it go. Drawn to him like a moth to a flame, she has to find out what Daniel is so desperate to keep secret . . . even if it kills her. In this post, I'm just going to compare my thoughts from the first time I read it to the thought I have now after reading it a second time, so this isn't a review :) I read this b...
