Now that Luce and Daniel have found their happy ending Cam is left wanting to find his own. Cam wants to find Lilith, the girl he almost married years ago. When he finds out that she is being put through hell by Lucifer he does everything he can to get her out. Lucifer gives Cam 15 days to get Lilith, who remembers nothing about him, to fall back in love with him. It is much harder than he could ever imagine but with Luce and Daniel as his inspiration, he keeps fighting no matter what.
I LOVED THIS BOOK!!! I always liked Cam throughout the whole series and when I found out that there's a book just about him I was so excited. There were many people that were excited about this book too, even people that didn't like the other books. This book allows you to see a different side of Cam and that's what I loved most about this book.
I recommend this book to readers who loved Cam in the other books. Although I do think this book is for readers who liked Cam I also think that if you like Lauren Kate and the Fallen Series I think that you'll still like this book. It really gives you another step into that world and if you didn't like Cam before I bet you will after reading this book.

Nora is now a vampire and although she's escaped the people hunting her for awhile she still has many more things to do. She's on the run and headed to find a magical cave with answers. Hunter and her meet some other vampires on their way to the same cave. A fight breaks out, Hunter says some mean things, and he leaves with one of the travelers they met up with. Now Nora is alone, with a stranger, Alexander, who has promised to stay with her.
I'll admit, this series still hasn't been the best I've ever read but I am one who can't help trying to figure out how a story ends. This book was better than the first one in my opinion. It was less a copy of Twilight and branched more to it's own story. It is still very similar to Twilight. For example, in New Moon Edward leaves Bella and she is left with Jacob. In this book, Hunter leaves Nora and all she has is Alexander. Many reviewers agree that this book was better than the first. I haven't decided if I want to hope it only gets better or just give up. I am curious about how it all ends and if it continues to resemble Twilight.
I recommend this book to someone who loved Twilight and wants another story similar to it. It's also a quick short read but still interesting. If you didn't like Twilight and/or didn't like the first book in this series then don't read this book.

Book two in the Fallen series! After everything that happened at Sword & Cross Daniel sends Luce to a new school with higher security. She gets sent to a school in California, far away from her small town in Georgia, that caters specifically to people like her. Not only does Luce get pulled from her home and away from her family, who thinks that she's still enrolled at Sword & Cross, Daniel still can't be with her because it's dangerous. Luce does make new friends at her new school and also starts to learn more about her past selves and even more about her current self.
This book wasn't my favorite in this series and let me tell you why. First of all, this book makes you kind of hate Daniel in my opinion. He's distant, refuses to tell Luce anything, and just overall feels blocked off. I'm not complaining, I really get why it had to be that way and I think that it really helped us learn more about Luce as a person. This book allowed you to see Luce without the veil and awe of Daniel. Like Fallen, there are a lot of low rating reviews on this book. Many people felt the same way I did about Daniel, but they let it ruin the book for them. Yes, Daniel and Luce fight and argue during most of this book but in my opinion, that's not what monopolizes the whole story. Basically, what I'm saying is that there's more to this book than Daniel being a jerk and Luce being a little whiny.
I don't recommend this book to people that didn't like Fallen. I get it if you want to give it another chance, see if it gets better, or whatever reasoning you have about it. If you don't like the first one just stop with the series. Don't write mean, annoying reviews over and over again, if it's such torture than stop reading the books! There are millions of books out there, find one, read it, and move on. On the other hand, if you enjoyed Fallen like I did then please read this book. It's not the best but it keeps getting better.

Forsaken is about a girl named Nora Colburn. She is your classic, plain-Jane, unnoticed high schooler. Until one day a new kid arrives and rumors about him a spreading fast. Her friend tells her that he was kicked out of all of his other schools and is trouble. On his first day Nora gets assigned to stay after school to catch him up in the class they share. As they get to know each other he shares a secret with her that blows her mind. What he shows her is an ancient secret that puts them both in danger.
This book is not very good. I enjoyed it enough but it was just very poorly written. Almost every review I've read about this book compares it to Twilight, seems to be a trend in my recent posts. However, unlike what I said in my review of Fallen, I completely agree with it. When a friend asked what it was about I basically told them that it was Twilight with different characters and a slightly different plot. Even though it's different the basic plot is the same. Twilight- Quiet, new girl drawn to mysterious guy, falls in love, a secret is shared, suddenly she's in danger. Forsaken- Shy girl drawn to mysterious and rumored to be dangerous new guy, falls in love, he tells her something he shouldn't, and bam she's in danger. Don't get me wrong, it's not THAT terrible, I still went onto the second book and it does marginally get better.
I recommend this to someone who liked Twilight and enjoys a quick read. I will admit you have to be understanding and patient to read this book, it moves slow in some places and then jumps in others.

Lucinda Price doesn't know what's wrong with her. She was in an accident where a friend died and now she has to go to a reform school called Sword & Cross. While at this school she gets captivated by a mysterious guy named Daniel. He's hot and cold towards her sending her mixed signals. She doesn't know why but she still can't shake the feeling that she's seen him before. Later she finds out that there's some mysteriously magical force that is trying to tear them apart. Being with Daniel has more complications and dangers than she could ever imagine.
This book, and whole series, is filled with a wonderful and powerful romance that really captivates you. It's filled with action, drama, and suspense. Many people like to compare this to Twilight and THAT'S FINE until they say that it's way worse. Most of the problems people have with Twilight are dialogue, characters, and plot. A.) I don't care about how the dialogue is written or the way the author decides to do it, whatever. B.) The characters in this book aren't like Twilight. They're deeper, more sincere and just all around better (in my opinion). C.) Yes, I agree the plot is similar- girl goes to a new school, falls for an edgy boy, and something crazy happens- but Luce and Daniel's relationship runs deeper and stronger than Bella and Edward's. They have a massive intertwining history that takes four books to learn about. Don't listen to the haters, comparing it to Twilight is like comparing the first draft of an essay to a final draft. This book is wonderful and I'd read it a million more times if I didn't have a to-read list that's a mile long.
I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a good fantasy romance. This book isn't your classic sci-fi fantasy with vampires and werewolves. In fact, if you don't like werewolves or vampires then your in luck because this book doesn't contain either. Luce and Daniel's relationship is one like no other that causes you to move from book to book as fast as possible. I will be honest, this book is not for romance haters. Book one is light on the subject but trust me it's there and grows throughout the series. If you like fantasy at all just give it a chance, I can almost guarantee you'll at least enjoy it a little.

After the shocking ending of the last book how can you not read this one??? Vincent is gone, SAY WHAT??? This book starts off with Kate and Vincent’s kindred are trying to figure out how to save Vincent before Violet destroys him for good. Even though Vincent is gone, Kate won't give up the sliver of hope there is to save him. Violet is about to start a full out war with the revenants and there’s no way to avoid it. The ending of this book is absolutely amazing! It honestly couldn't have ended any better. Like all fans of this series I do want another book but you always feel that with a really good series. As much as I want this story to continue I just feel like it would be stretching it too far. Ever story has an end eventually.

Sebastian Morgenstern, Clary’s brother, is wreaking havoc on the world again, turning shadow hunters against each other. He has found a way to turn shadow hunters into a nightmarish creature, and he uses these newly made creatures to create an army. Of course Clary and Jace must help the other shadow hunters to stop him but like all things in their life, it isn’t without sacrifice.This is the final book in what's been a very long series. I do agree it should have stopped sooner but that doesn't make me love it any less. Although long and repetitive I have not read anything quite unique. I give this series as a whole 4.5 stars. I will say if you are interested in this series be prepared for a long run, it took me all summer and that was reading almost all of the time.

There is now peace between Downworlders and Shadowhunters and Clary’s mother is finally going to marry Luke! Even Clary and Jace can finally start calling each other boyfriend and girlfriend! Everything is going well until someone starts mysteriously killing Shadowhunters and Jace starts pulling away from Clary. By now some people are a little tired of this story, it seems to be same old same old and I was like that too but I couldn't leave the characters just yet. If you like the characters in this series then why not just say what the heck and read this!

When Kate’s parents die in an accident Kate and her sister Georgia move to Paris to live with their grandparents. Kate isn’t the type to branch out, and after moving to Paris she mostly spends her time reading at a cafe or admiring work at the museums. Then she meets a mysterious guy named Vincent and she soon learns he’s not who she thinks he is. This book is full of romance and adventure. I love how awkward it is when Vincent and Kate first meet. This book is kind of formally written but I don't think it makes the book even less powerful. I recommend this to anyone who like a good immortal romance.

After someone close to Miranda dies in a car accident, she realizes she can see ghosts. Both Miranda and her brother have taken the car accident badly so Miranda's parents decide to take a trip to York, England and when she gets there she realizes that it’s filled with ghosts. Miranda didn't have much plans of doing anything while in York but then she meets someone mysterious that seems to know about the ghosts too. She is naturally curious about being able to see the ghosts so she tries to learn more but it leads her down a dangerous path. I recommend this to people who like ghosty and mysterious stories. It definitely doesn't scare your pants off but I was a little spooked reading it in a dimly lit room with no one else in the house.

Clary has to go to the Glass City to save her mother but it becomes a lot more complicated when she finds out that Jace doesn’t want her to go to the city. He doesn't even want her near it. It is also illegal to enter the city without permission which she doesn't have. When she illegally enters the city she finds an ally named Sebastian who starts to help her learn more about her family and how to stop Valentine. Clary fights to save her mother and the rest of the world to find Valentine and it is definitely not easy. This series does feel like it keeps going, and going, repeating what feels kind of like the same story over again. I love the story and series as well as Cassandra Clare but I can see how some people would think it goes a little far.

Nick is gone, killed by some evil, mystical thing, and no where to be found. He gets taken right in the middle of a large pixie attack going on in Bedford. Pixies are taking students and more and more people have just disappeared. Zara knows she’s supposed to be with Nick, he's her soulmate, but in order to get him back she has to kiss Astley and become his pixie queen. Kissing him will turn her pixie making her stronger and it will also give Astley more power. Zara worries that even when they find Nick he won’t even want to be with her when he finds out what she’s done. No one hates pixies more than him. This book made me re-think who Zara should be with. Until this book I felt it was supposed to be her and Nick all the way but this book made me reconsider the possibility of her being with Astley. He clearly cares about her, more than just needing a queen, he spends the whole book helping her find Nick because he's who she cares about. I love this series so far and if you've been through book one and two you'll love this one too!

Clary just wants to go back to her normal life and be done with the Shadow world but that’s kind of hard since her mother is in a magical coma. Things with her life has changed a lot since she started being able to see the shadow world and since she found out Jace is her brother. Ever since Jace and Clary found out that they're siblings Jace has been acting cold and crass towards Clary making her have an even harder time coping with everything that's going on in her life. She has Simon, and their relationship is growing but he doesn't understand as much as she wishes he could. I had a hard time putting this book down. It was a lot of non stop, what's going to happen next, kind of stuff. Definitely more exciting then the first book (not that I didn't love the first one). Many people have a problem with everything about Jace and Clary, I'd just like to say this. They didn't do anything 'gross' enough to call it incest. I also am of the belief it'd be grosser if they grew up as brother and sister, but they didn't. I'm not say that that makes incest okay I'm just saying it's not as disgusting as many reviewers make it out to be. I recommend this book to anyone who genuinely liked the first one.

After Zara and her friends successfully locked up all of the pixies, including Zara's father, a new king comes to town. With the king locked up, losing his control he has over the other pixies, things are chaotic in Bedford. Then Astley comes into town. He is a lot younger that her father, the only other king she's met, and he intrigues Zara. Nick, being the protective boyfriend he is, of course hates Astley's presence and it causes friction between him and Zara. But soon Zara has no choice but to work with Astley to help control the pixies. The first half of this book is mostly just taking off from where Need left off and building Nick and Zara's relationship. This is definitely a must read for the series but as many reviews do say, it's a boring book compared to the first one. If you loved Need this is a book you should push through to get through the rest of the series!
