Passion
by Lauren Kate
I agree with a comment I saw below saying this series can be very hit and miss. It's this exact way for me. I wasn't sure of my feelings for Fallen, I didn't buy the whole love at first sight thing and the weird connection, and all the secrets. It took me a while to unravel everything and really understand what the hell was going on. On the other hand, I really enjoyed Torment, and found myself ravishing it. I think this had more to do with Luce's new school more than anything else. Nephilim kids? Yes, please!
Now Passion, kinda fell in between Fallen and Torment for me. I didn't hate it but I didn't love it (in saying this, I managed to read it in about 3 hours). I was looking forward to falling into all of Luce's past lives and figuring what she was like and what era it was, and how she lived in it. But increasingly, it felt like I was more confused about the point of her travelling than Luce, and she was pretty damn confused. It felt like a mixed up squiggle. I'm not sure what the exact point was except to know that Daniel's love was real (which he has been saying for the past two books) and that the Devil is evil (no way!). I felt like Passion was an excuse for Lauren Kate to have a bit of fun with all of Luce's past lives, and there wasn't actually a real solid plotline to it.
