alyshadeshae 's review for:
Passion
by Lauren Kate
My full review is here on my personal website. I'll post a few excerpts here, though:
3.5 out of 5.0 stars
The very worst thing about this book is pretty much everything. *sigh* I had so many high hopes for this book, for the author’s maturity as a writer, for the character development, for the plot, and so on. Shockingly, this book is an improvement over the first two, but not by much.
The very best thing about this book is, like the first two, the cover. In this one, though, I’ll even toss in the very little bit of development of Luce’s character. She actually decides that she wants to figure out why she and Daniel are destined to be in love and all that good garbage. This apparently means a time travelling vacation. She visits a bunch of past lives, meets up with a gargoyle who “helps” her, and slowly (painfully slowly) comes to the conclusion that she does love Daniel. O_o I thought she already knew that…
We don’t really get any answers in this book and after finishing it, I can’t honestly give a reason as to why I thought Luce was developing so well, but because I felt throughout the book that she was, I went ahead and gave this one a 3.5 instead of the 2.0 I gave the first two. It’s not fully deserved, but I wasn’t beating my head against a wall the way I was (literally) with "Fallen" and "Torment" so we'll call that improvement.
