What makes your heart race a little
faster? Just in time for Valentine's Day, it's FALLEN IN LOVE, four wholly
original new stories collected in a new novel set in the Middle Ages by Lauren
Kate. FALLEN IN LOVE gives fans the much-talked about but never-revealed
stories of FALLEN characters as they intertwine with the epic love story of
Luce and Daniel. The stories include: Love Where You Least Expect It: The
Valentine of Shelby and Miles , Love Lessons: The Valentine of Roland; Burning
Love: The Valentine of Arriane; and Endless Love: The Valentine of Daniel and
Lucinda.
Originality: Hmm.. I thought Fallen in
Love was semi-original. I liked the meshing of several main characters from the
Fallen Characters, showing different sides of the story, showing each
characters’ life instead of just the life of Luce and Daniel.
Characters: Luce and Daniel, the main
characters of the Fallen series by Lauren Kate, are still present in this short
story, but they aren’t the focus this time, or at least they aren’t the entire
story. Fallen in Love also highlights the lives of Shelby and Miles, Luce’s
friends; Roland, one of the fallen angels, er, demons; and Arriane, the lovely
angel who’s also fallen.
Content: Hands-down the content was
perfect for this time of the year. As most of you should know, it’s almost
Valentine’s Day. What a great way to celebrate that? And, irony, the book was also set on
Valentine’s Day, and the night before.
Setting: Fallen in Love was set during
the Middle Ages before, and during, a Valentine’s Day Faire. Notice the ‘e’ at
the end of ‘fair’? Yeah. Medieval spelling right there ;) Lol
Well, if you’ve read Passion, the most
recent book of the Fallen series, you’d know that the characters have done a
lot of time-traveling, so it wasn’t really a bad scene to pick. It was actually
the best scene to choose from. I mean, the Renaissance time period, starting
anew, perfect thing for these characters.
Overall Enjoyment: To sum it up, I
loved this mini addition to the Fallen series. It made me not feel so cynical
about Valentine’s Day like I usually do. And that’s great when a book can make
you feel something. I’m still
undecided about whether or not this is an essential part of the series. Some
aspects definitely build the plot, but you don’t really need these details to
understand it all. So, ultimately, yes, I would recommend this, but only if
you’ve read Fallen, Torment, and Passion by Lauren Kate. Just pointing out that
Rapture, the fourth and final book of the Fallen series, is set to be released in
June J
