I have read Torment, but not Passion as it has only just came out here :( hopefully *fingers crossed* getting it for my birthday as I don't know what else I want.

Will post again once I've read it... but OMG! Torment was AMAZING!

Crude how could I miss this. For some reason I thought the release date was in November but then again I may be confused with Matched sequel.

How did I not know about this thread? :O

Hmm...well I may have to stay away for a bit anyway, as I haven't gotten a chance to buy Passion yet. Although I heard its a prequel, and those are generally not my thing.

MidnightSun~ Are serious she wrote the 3rd book as a prequel? While I don't mind them sometimes I feel they should be written after the series is finished.

Desiree~Yep. I've been iffy about buying it because of that. Like I said, prequels are NOT my thing...unless its a series I'm heavily into, and this just isn't one of them. A friend of mine and I have a theory that this was written as a filler for between books that her bosses made her write to keep the books selling consistently or something. I looked on her site and it's pretty much a bunch of smaller stories from over Luce's different lifetimes put into one big book. I think its a bit silly, but I'll read it anyway as there might be something I need to know for the fourth book in it.

Plus it gives me something to read until the new Hush, Hush book comes out later this year.

Yes, Desiree. It's something like a prequel. As you know, Torment ended with Luce entering into a memory of her past. So, Passion is "supposed to be" a mix of Luce backtracking her and Daniels past time together to try and understand for herself what went wrong and current events with her friends, including Daniel, trying to find and keep up with her.

Chrissy ~ I forgot how Torment ended b/c it has been awhile . Ashley & Chrissy I researched reviews and it is a 50/50. I have it ready to go in my queue at the library . Chrissy have you read Passion yet? Did you buy them for your nook? I am thinking about a ereader mainly for fan fic but once my personal library is filled I am going to need my library to go towards an ereader.

No, Desiree. I haven't read Passion yet although I do have it already loaded onto my Nook. I have a slew of other books I'm reading at them moment so I probably won't get into until early next month. I don't know though. If you guys want me to read it now and report back with my thoughts then that's totally possible.

So I bought Fallen a couple days ago for my Nook, and I think I'll be starting it either later this evening or tomorrow.

I was wondering if you'd all like me to report back with my thoughts on it as I read, with spoilers in the invisible font?
