Fallen by Lauren Kate

Fallen (Fallen, #1) Fallen by Lauren Kate

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is what the blurb on Goodreads says about this book:
There's something achingly familiar about Daniel Grigori.
Mysterious and aloof, he captures Luce Price's attention from the moment she sees him on her first day at the Sword & Cross boarding school in sultry Savannah, Georgia. He's the one bright spot in a place where cell phones are forbidden, the other students are all screw-ups, and security cameras watch every move.
Even though Daniel wants nothing to do with Luce--and goes out of his way to make that very clear--she can't let it go. Drawn to him like a moth to a flame, she has to find out what Daniel is so desperate to keep secret . . . even if it kills her.
Dangerously exciting and darkly romantic, Fallen is a page turning thriller and the ultimate love story.

My thoughts:
I knew Daniel was an angel before I started the book (I just read too many reviews) but it was a surprise that so many other angels were also part of the reform school Luce was sent to. I really enjoyed the book - it was easy to read and full of tension to keep you reading. I just didn't appreciate the ending. I know it ended so that you will want to read the next in the series but I always feel cheated without a happy ever after ending.
