What Cassandra Clare started in her Mortal Instruments series, Lauren Kate continues in her Fallen. Angels are the new Vampires - and way, way sexxxier! I love how the story starts rather slow and progresses gradually, so everything feels so suspenseful and yet natural. Luce is smart and funny - if she seems clueless sometimes, it's because she's supposed to be! Daniel - I just wanna jump his bones! Everything he said, the way he was with Luce, it was so beautiful and loving and patient. The secondary characters were wonderfully well-rounded people with their own stories and personalities. I adored this book, everything about it, and I cannot, cannot, cannot wait for Torment! <3
