Goodreads Summary:
Hell on earth.
That’s what it’s like for Luce to be apart from her fallen angel boyfriend, Daniel.
It
took them an eternity to find one another, but now he has told her he
must go away. Just long enough to hunt down the Outcasts—immortals who
want to kill Luce. Daniel hides Luce at Shoreline, a school on the rocky
California coast with unusually gifted students: Nephilim, the
offspring of fallen angels and humans.
At Shoreline, Luce learns
what the Shadows are, and how she can use them as windows to her
previous lives. Yet the more Luce learns, the more she suspects that
Daniel hasn’t told her everything. He’s hiding something—something
dangerous.
What if Daniel’s version of the past isn’t actually true? What if Luce is really meant to be with someone else?
The second novel in the addictive FALLEN series . . . where love never dies.
Review:
Alright so it has been a year since I have read the last book, so when I first started this I was slightly confused. It didn't take me long though to remember some of the things that happened in the first book. I had given the first book 2 stars as the two main characters annoyed the shit out of me. This time around they both still do. Daniel was a controlling jackass. Yes I understand that he wanted to keep his girl safe but there is a way to do it and a way not to do it. Luce I think must have been going through menopause or something. One minute she's all pissed at Daniel and then the next she is running into his arms, only to get pissed off at him again. The writing was nice, it was easy to read. It was a decent read. It's not something I would read over again but I'm going to give the third book a shot.

more books not finished
Feburary 2012 books that didn't get finished:
Follow Me Down by Marc Strange - Reason: I don't know to me the plot seems like it's done before and I just simply didn't like it. I only had about 100 pages left, but just getting to that point took a lot of pushing and I was just tired of the book so I gave up on it.
March 2012 books that didn't get finished:
Song of the Dragon by Tracy Hickman - Reason: Ya it was just...way to fuckin complicated. I mean it took me two weeks to read 30 pages...that and I just wasn't enjoying it.
The Dark Vineyard by Martin Walker - Reason: Just didn't like it. I seem to be pretty picky this month.
April 2012 books that didn't get finished:
Daughter of Darkness by V.C Andrews - ya...just couldn't get passed the first chapter. now i see why no one would check it out from the library.
May 2012 books that didn't get finished:
Wolfbreed by S.A Swann - ya...i just don't even know man...
*update*July 2012 books that didn't get finished:
The Amulet of Samarkand by Jonathan Stroud - ya...got about halfway through and it was just too slow and got boring.
Stolen by Kelly Armstrong - now i have read the first book and it was really hard for me to finish. reading this one was the same way and i just could not make myself read it. it was also due back at the library and because someone else was waiting for it i couldn't renew it and keep trying to read it. i know what page i'm on so maybe i might try to read this again in the future but just not now.

Review: To Fetch a Thief
Title: To Fetch a Thief (A Chet and Bernie Mystery 3)
Author: Spencer Quinn
Pages: 320
Published: September 28th 2010 by Atria
Rating: 4/5
Goodreads Summary:
Following "Dog On It" and "Thereby Hangs a Tail, To Fetch a Thief" is the third Chet and Bernie mystery featuring an irresistible canine narrator.
Review:
I should have started with the first book but oh well, too late now. For not reading the first two books, I thought that this one was very cute. I loved that it was from the dogs perspective. It was pretty funny and easy to read, which is great after a long day's work. I totally recommend this book to anyone that loves dogs and especially to anyone that loves cozy mysteries.
