Fallen was actually one of the better books of that pseudo-YA-romance-urban fantasy... genre.
And Spellbinder was great. I really loved that one and can't wait for the next book. I just finished Fallen and can't wait for the sequel...and I'm not exactly young adult at 37. Fallen by Lauren Kate arrived yesterday.
Spellbinder by Helen Springer arrived last week. It's pretty good. I'm almost done. Gonna check out Fallen, Trish, based on your review (probably to prove my whole problem with the stupid Twilight series isn't an age thing), but will do it through the library. Don't want to get stuck buying a crapulous book again. Noticed that one of the tags used for this book is "biblical" - ... ... Papers of Eastern Jewel - Maureen Lindley

I'd read everything else by Bradley already, but this was her debut novel and not a part of any of her other series so I was a bit wary of ... ... dream I'm dreaming! You cracked me up dk_phoenix!
#74- Thanks for the tip on the other books klobrien2. The way Fallen was writen is what originally drew me to the story to begin with. I look forward to reading his others. #18 I read Fallen, and really enjoyed it. I also read Maine's The Preservationist which is a tale of Noah. I just looked it up and I see that Maine has also written Book of Samson and his newest is Monster, 1959, which sounds a complete change for him away from the biblical retelling thing.
... 18. Fallen by David Maine. 4 stars. This is a ficticious account of the First Family: Adam, Eve, Cain, Abel and some of the younger siblings. Maine does an excellent job of weaving an enchanting tale. The book starts when Cain is an old man about to die and works it way back to the day God ... ... hero of this new one) just come from a distant place time SEEMED to forget.
I also read Cindy Holby's new book, Fallen (wrong touchstone) and liked it so much, I went to the library and checked out all her other books. I was very disappointed in the older ones, however. They were ... I finished Fallen by Erin McCarthy and would love to discuss it with some of you paranormal fans. Let me know if you want to open another "spoiler" thread.
CC Fallen definitely didn't disappoint. I finished it last night, and I really enjoyed the way the whole thing wrapped up. The emotional aspects seemed very realistic, and the mystery ended up quite twisty. I'm looking forward to reading the others in the series. :) ... told in one book.
Caramel, you all know I do not do paranormal, but after reading an exerpt of Erin McCarthy's Fallen, I had to order it. She is one of my favorite authors, and the excerpt was very intriguing.
CC I've been reading The Book of Samson by David Maine. I absolutely loved his other two The Preservationist and Fallen, particularly Fallen. This one is slow going. He's playing with punctuation a little, which makes it difficult. Also, the narrator is supposed to be telling a story from ... #113 poshpaws - If you enjoyed backwards-telling of The Night Watch you may like Fallen by David Maine. It is the story of Cain and Abel told backwards. I thought it was really interesting how the author took a familiar story and gave it shape and plausibility. All the characters become ... I just finished Fallen by David Maine, the story of Adam and Eve and their family after they are banished from the Garden. I found myself getting more into the story towards the end, which is actually THE beginning since it’s written backwards! It was a pretty quick read, and worth it for ... LouisBranning, thanks for the heads-up re: Fallen by David Maine...it's winging its way to me even as we speak. Should we bless or curse Amazon.com...? The biblioholic's crack peddlers, they are. I picked up The Preservationist in spite of my deep dislike of The Red Tent by Anita Diam ...
