Torment by Lauren Kate

The 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.


(My Review): The second book in the Fallen series, and also is the best one yet. I read this book the day It came out which was September 28th of 2010. The setting was different then the one in the first book. They're on a small island in California. Daniel has to leave Luce to try and protect her. Along the way she meets Shelby Sterris and Miles Fisher. At first when Lucinda meets Shelby, she's reluctant to take to Luce right away, but eventually halfway into the book, Shelby is sorry for treating Luce the way she did. Miles had met Luce shortly after she met Shelby. She had sent a lot of time with him when she just wanted a friend. It seemed like Daniel was over-protecting her in the book, but he has he reasons why. Still It drove Luce mad and caused a strain in their relationship.

At the ending most of the people from Fallen and from Torment and were together and Miles had nearly saved the day. It was definitely a cliffhanger.

Here's the video for Torment:

Some of my favorite quotes from Torment:
-"Are you okay?" Daniel whispered, his voice soft, his lips so close to hers.
"Yes." She could feel the beating of his wings. "You caught me."
"I will always catch you when you fall."

-"Well, as much as I love kicking asses and taking names, it's way past curfew for you three"- Arriane"

-"Don't go," she whispered, her eyes closed. It was all happening too fast. She couldn't give Daniel up. Not yet. She didn't think she ever could."

-"Loneliness in a crowd of people was the worst kind of loneliness, but she couldn't help it."
