Fallen

SOME ANGELS ARE DESTINED TO FALL.

Instant. Intense. Weirdly familiar . . .

The moment Luce looks at Daniel she knows she has never felt like this before. Except she can't shake the feeling that she has . . . and with him - a boy she doesn't remember ever setting eyes on.

Will her attempt to find out why enlighten her - or destroy her?

Dangerously exciting and darkly romantic. Fallen is a thrilling story about forbidden love.

Reviews

This thriller is dark and romantic, an absolute blinder of a book. Every teenage girl (and her mum) is going to want to read it

—— The Sun

Imaginative and very sexy

—— Bella

Readers who prefer paranormal romance will adore Fallen by Lauren Kate

—— Irish Independent

Bursting with emotion, this is a roller coaster story of unbridled and dangerous desires

—— Love Reading

This is a gothic love story featuring fallen angels and forbidden love (a winning formula) that will thrill and delight in equal measure

—— Fantasy Book Review

I really enjoyed it and couldn't put it down all weekend!

—— Ashley Robbins , Assistant Buyer, Children's Fiction, WHS

I saw the cover, and true book lust began . . . seductive and more than a little scary . . . The sexual tension drips off the pages . . . There are more twists and turns in the book than a dance sequence . . . Fallen is an amazing start to a series and a refreshing change to the genre

—— Chicklish

I couldn't put it down . . . I highly recommend this book

—— Narratively Speaking

Twilight fans will love this word-of-mouth hit

—— Reading Zone

There is sometimes awesomeness behind the covers. And Fallen is one such book. And the cover is deliciously gothic . . . The book has an air of mystery to it, and there are twists and turns everywhere. It certainly keeps you guessing . . . Move over, Hush, Hush, for there is more originality and awesomeness here

—— Books and the Universe

Full of unexpected twists, with romance, intrigue and even scares

—— Bournemouth Daily Echo

An exciting climax and an intriguing ending

—— Library Thing

I have one word for you: WOW! This book is absolutely amazing! I cannot wait to read the next book in this series, Torment. Seriously, Fallen is unbelievably good, and I may just have to read it again soon. You need this book!

—— Once Upon a Bookcase

Lauren Kate really knows how to keep a reader engaged. A breathtaking read. 5/5

—— Gripped Into Books

With its original plot and charming protagonist, there is much to like about Emily Barr's young-adult debut.

Her [Emily's] page-turning talents are put to good use in Flora's adventure, as the reader accompanies a brave teenager on a journey to discover who she really is.

Barr's light touch captures the innocence and integrity of Flora's voice.

Readers will surely have difficulty forgetting about Flora, her parents and their predicament.

—— Irish Times

An icily atmospheric story with a captivating hook.

A pacy page-turner that packs a significant emotional punch.

—— The Guardian

An absorbing, original and definitely memorable book.

—— Sunday Express

A winning mix of a John Green/ Rainbow Rowell-style sharpness and sensitivity, but underlined with a darker edge, belying the author's previous experience as a thriller writer . . . a coming-of-age, finding-yourself-type novel which is, in turn, unsettling and uplifting.

—— View

This is yet another masterwork from the wonderful Israeli novelist whose work resonates with emotional intelligence, humanity and truth.

—— Eileen Battersby , Irish Times

Bold, brash, angry and heartbreakingly tender, with flurries of exasperated humour, here is a novel to take one by surprise… A demanding and gloriously rewarding novel, in it Grossman confronts the business of being alive.

—— Eileen Battersby , Irish Times

A sensitive and deeply emotional account of a past-prime comedian… This book is an immersive read for both the fans and haters of the stand-up comedy, but tread carefully if you’re not up for an emotional rollercoaster.

—— Yoojung Chun , Oxford Student

The perfect antidote to Trump.

—— Sarah Churchwell , Guardian

This book is a compelling study of the relationship between artist and spectator, and how suffering feeds into art, and he’s made of it a bravura performance… Extraordinary.

—— Alastair Mabbott , Herald

A haunting, intense and Man Booker International prize-winning novel from a great writer.

—— Mail on Sunday

Incredibly fast paced, and the dialogue comes at you like a machine gun… It is powerful in its own right.

—— Sara Garland , Nudge

Abrasive, unexpected and eventually heartbreaking, it is a masterclass in characterisation and structure, and it beat off some exceptionally strong competition to win the prize… A Horse Walks into a Bar is quite unlike any other Grossman book except in one important respect: it’s another masterpiece.

—— Nick Barley , New Statesman

Excellent.

—— Dara Ó Briain , Observer

Pitch-perfect black comedy

—— Salman Rushdie , Guardian
