Anyways, the other day I was so depressed. I wanted to buy all the books at the bookstore. I got pretty close to buying 3 books that were $20 worth each. But my mother pushed me back to one book.
So what did I buy?
'Passion', by Lauren Kate! It came out this month, and I was super excited! It is the third book in the Fallen series, which is about a fallen angel and his curse of falling in love with the same girl in all her lifetimes and watching her go up in flames every time.
In the first book, Lucinda Price meets Daniel at Sword and Cross Academy, and falls in love with him, as she unknowingly has for all of her past lives. But insted of bursting into flames when they kiss, she lives. Something has shifted in the curse for this incarnation of Luce. She learns about Daniel being an angel, and the battles that occur between other fallen angels on Earth.
In the second book, Luce is taken to Shoreline, a school for humans to Nephemlim to be hidden from those who want her dead. Daniel is away and fighting for her, and this saddens Luce. She learns more about the shadows that have haunted her all her life, and she realizes how many families have been hurt by her deaths her past lives. In the end, she steps dangerouly into the past, wanting to know about her past lives, despite Daniel's pleas.
So! We find ourself with Passion. Luce is visting some of her past lives, and she has come dangerouly close to altering her future. She is accompained by a "tour guide" named Bill who has taken on the form of a gargoyle. Meanwhile, Daniel is chasing her back through her lives, but she is faster than him.
Right now I am on page 180, and Luce is visting her funeral in Prussia, 1758. She is learning about Daniel, and how he would sleep until her soul would settle somewheres.
Right now, the book is very interesting and sad. She has seen herself die a few times already. And so has Daniel, chasing Luce through the past.
