Fallen in Love by Lauren Kate

Fallen is a series of four books that will soon be made into a Disney movie.  I had read the first one in the series and jumped at the chance to read four new stories about these characters.  I find fallen angels interesting, especially when it's a love story.

Delacorte Press sent me a copy of this book for review (thank you).  It has been published and you can get a copy now.  It also includes an introduction to "Rapture", the next book in the series.

The stories included are:
>Love Where You Least Expect It: The Valentine of Shelby and Miles
>Love Lessons: The Valentine of Roland
>Burning Love: The Valentine of Arriane
>Endless Love: The Valentine of Daniel and Lucinda

These stories all have enough detail to be read as a stand alone.  They are all good, but the one that really caught my attention was the story of Arriane.  She's an angel from heaven, the angel she loves is from hell.  What a dilemma!

If you enjoy paranormal stories, you'll want to read this.  And if you want to know more about the characters from the books, here is some original information that will give you more background.  If you don't care about any of that, these stories are still an interesting read.  Why not get a copy and see for yourself?

Happy reading.

Fallen by Lauren Kate

Subtitle: They Are Among Us...

This book has been written for young adults and should please them. It has good and evil, fantasy, unknown forces and creatures and reincarnation. What more do you need? Oh, maybe a bit of romance? It has that, too!

The story moves quickly, is believable (if you like fantasy) and leaves you waiting for the next in the series. For this book is not an end - only a beginning to a story.

I enjoyed it. It has adult content, so don't let a young one read it. But if you have a teenager that likes action packed fantasy, this will work!

If you'd be interested in my ARC, please leave a comment here on the blog and then email at info NOSPAM @bookfaerie.com (take out the spaces and NOSPAM) with your name and address and why you'd like to read it. Giveaway will be in about a week.
