What if the person you were meant to be with could never be yours?
Just finished another YA novel about fallen angels - Fallen by Lauren Kate. This novel took me some time to read. I actually find the story slow and it seemed like nothing is really happening except for Lucinda always thinking about Daniel. I think the reason why I find it slow is because the book focused more on Lucinda's relationships with the various characters and I was like expecting some action. Action as in battles between the fallen and whoever is the enemy. Although there were some action, it came too late for me and I was like already too tired and lazy for it. For me, the first book felt like a long prologue for the series. But don't take it negatively. It's just my personal opinion. It's just that I'm still not used to reading romantic novels. Actually, I've read good reviews about it. It actually depends on your taste. Anyway, I'm still going to read Torment and the next books to find out how the star-crossed lovers would end everything and how Luce is important for the other fallen angels.
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 Savannah. He’s the one bright spot in a place where cell phones are forbidden, the other students are screwups, and security cameras watch every move.
Except Daniel wants nothing to do with Luce–he goes out of his way to make that very clear. But 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.
Oh yeah, I just remembered, maybe another reason why I find it slow is because my attention for the novel is not 100%. I'm watching a Korean drama (You're Beautiful) which I find more interesting because of the gorgeous Jang Geun-suk. It just happened that I find JGS more alluring than Daniel Grigori because I could watch JGS and I can only read about DG. lol. Anyway, this is like their official website -> Fallen. I also got the title of my post there and the feather image. I hope you would enjoy the book. XD
Speaking of JGS (another angel), I just browsed my old journal and happened to find some entries about him around 3 years ago. I first learned about his existence while watching Hwang Jin-i. I'm amused so I'm going to post them here.

I just remembered... I'm watching Hwang Jin-i everyday after Marimar in channel 7... I am watching it and is actually looking forward for it because of Jin-i and her love interest... her lover is soooo cute!!! haha... His smile is very cute... haha... Ang amo ng face nya at parang ang bait-bait nya. Tapos yung character pa nya torpe... grabe... I like... cute nya.... I searched for him in the net pero mukang di pa siya sikat.

Currently watching Hwang Jin-i. Love it... it's just sad that Eun-ho (JGS) is dead already... He's her cute boyfriend.... He's really cute... Maybe he was the one who caused my detachment.
Around those times, I was actually watching Hwang Jin-i while writing these stuff kaya napapasingit si JGS.I just couldn't resist his sweet smile.
I was also able to watch Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti Do and Itaewon Murder Case. Medyo hindi pa ganun ka-mature yung itsura nya sa Do Re Mi pero ang cute-cute nya talaga. Dun sa Itaewon, suuupppeeerrr like yung huling appearance nya. Medyo Hwang Tae-kyung na yung itsura nya. Cute talaga mag-smile... Adik nanaman ako.
