I am sooo in love with Daniel and Luce right now.
before you find someone
worth dying for?"
I am so much in love with the second Fallen novel - Torment by Lauren Kate. Unlike the first book which took me some time to read, I could not stop flipping the pages of Torment. Even though there were a LOT of cheesy and mushy stuff happening when Daniel meets Luce, I was able to survive them all. LoL. Even though there were times when I am asking if they should really be hungry like that. Hahaha... Well maybe Daniel is like that because of his frustrations and longings for I'm not sure how many millenia have passed since when Luce turns 17, and they kiss, she burns - literally until this lifetime.
"It must have been part of Daniel's punishment.
That she was bound to him forever,
like a marionette to its puppeteer."
"Gazing at him, feeling his touch -
the rest of the world faded into the background"
Anyway, about the story, I like it how the author provided a secret world for angels, like the Shoreline school where Nephilims or humans with angel bloodline study. Although it reminded me somehow of Hogwarts, I actually like it. I actually thought at first that it would be just like other tragic love stories with star-crossed lovers added with a fallen angel to spice up the story. I thought angels here would be like very rare and so much kept underground. But in the Fallen series, there is actually a community of angels, demons and half-angels. And aside from just angels and demons, the author added more kinds of angels like Nephs and the Outcasts, and then there were also other beings or creatures like the Announcers and the starshot barterers. I like how the series did not only focused on the romance part but also on the fantasy part.
"Would love be different with someone else?
Was love even possible with someone else?
Love was supposed to be easy, wasn't it?
Then why did she feel tormented?"
Although I am frustrated for a lot of questions. There is still soooo much to learn about the real story between Daniel and Luce. There are still a lot of things that has to be revealed like the issue with the Outcasts and why they can't allow them to go back. Why Luce would die with a starshot when she is actually human? Remember, Cam shot the Outcast whom he thought was Luce and said that it was better for her to die or something like that. Why the demons want Luce? Is Daniel really the angel who would tip the balance? Who cursed Luce and Daniel? Why Trevor self-combusted but Miles did not? And so on and so forth.
"Take off your shoes,
and I'll show you how angels dance."
I am dying to read Passion, the next novel, but I still have to wait for a year before it comes out! Poor me. I hope the next novel would be revealing more about Luce's past.
Waahhh... Can I have my own Daniel!?
Would he find her?
Without question.
Would he save her?
Always.
