      It was some kind of shadow of the past that was drawn to her because of who she was and she was scared of it because each one of them pretty much hold a past life and every time she went into one she watched herself spontaneously combust and die from what I remember.
      She eventually chose to go into them and watch herself die because she just had to know what the truth was because broody kept wanting to run away because if she remembered or kissed him she would fucking explode but still couldn't keep his lips to himself and leather jacket was like fuck you keep your hands to yourself and stay away from her completely or you'll kill her you fucking idiot. And then broody is all like you can't trust leather jacket because he chose Lucifer's side and he's a bad guy and shes like omg I can't believe you leather jacket I trusted you. There's nothing wrong with broody in fact he was only put here for jaywalking.
      Idk how tf that happened. A school for the worst of the worst and somehow broody ends up there for jaywalking. The chick that dies in the beginning is trusted to work with the records so she tells her new friend satan's ex that her crush broody isn't as bad as the rest of them cause he didn't actually do anything bad.
      And somehow her and broody are insanely in love even though god specifically made her FOR Lucifer which is why her name in every incarnation is some sort of relation to his. God made her satan's fucking soul mate. And broody just wanted to be loved and thought she was perfect for him and HIS soul mate.
      Honestly, I think the books were well written (better than twilight and I mean grammar wise because there were actually some misspelled words in twilight that they missed and I can't really remember any errors in fallen. There probably are some but I don't remember anything as stupid as something being misspelled. ) but the plot was like wtf. I'm now questioning whether the whole thing was come up with while sober or the author was on all kinds or drugs along with alcohol.

      That quote 😭
      I’m sure there’s some in books I’ve not yet heard of, but for once I’d like a supernatural YA movie adaptation to have a bright, bubbly female lead. Not second or third lead, but THE lead.
      AND NO BLUE OR GRAY FILTERS. I hated the blue filters in Twilight. If the story alone can’t create the supernatural mood, the filters just make it depressing and boring.
      I mean, look at TVD! Yes, I know it’s a show, not a movie, but just watching the Pilot episode is 🤩
      You just know it’s a supernatural story, and yet it’s sunny in Mystic Falls! And there’s no blue or gray filters! And Elena isn’t bland.
      (But that’s not the kind of female lead I was talking about in the beginning of this comment. No, I was thinking more like Caroline Forbes, except not blonde.
      I feel like there’s two extremes in the media: The stereotypical mean blonde girl, or the stereotypically fun blonde girl while the brunette is the “less” fun one.)
      And watching Twilight without the blue filters...you see it more clearly what’s wrong with the movie. There’s no personality to it.
      I want sunshine! I want natural colors! I want humor!
      Who said supernatural YA romances can’t have it all?

    Okay so I read all of these books in the span of like 3 weeks back in middle school and had practically forgotten about them until now. I think you underestimate the finale. This author really said “let’s make DEVIL a love interest. Let’s incorporate time travel. Let’s have a court case that predates earth take place in Heaven over the concept of romantic love. Let’s rewrite the Bible, cause that book doesn’t have enough tragic love stories in it, and in the end, let it all be for practically nothing” and ong it had me in a chokehold

      Honestly this sounds exactly like what he describes, kind of a typical tween girl self-insert drama with a bland main character that everyone likes for no reason at all because she's just born special. Let me take a guess at the basic plot and you tell me how accurate I am.
      It starts of with the "he's a bad boy but I can change him, dad!" trope (the devil), they fight at first but she can't stop thinking about him. The main heroine and him are obviously star crossed lovers, but it's also really really risky, but also meant to be because fate and stuff. Their love is literally so important and strong and special in the whole universe that the literal angels in heaven had to have an entire debate about how forbidden their love is. OOOH the forbidden fruit! But she's conflicted since the devil is HOT and there's this other guy who's literally perfect for her but too nice and sensitive, will she make the right decision??? The literal fate of the universe hangs in the balance of her deciding who she wants to fuck. Then enter actual protagonist, some conflict happens, the author needs to go back and fix major plot holes with a time travel narrative so the story makes sense again and you at least feel like something has happened, but in the end the useless antagonist is beaten easily through team-work by the bad-boy and the heroine after they realise they're in love, and the story ends perfectly with the boy-toy devil subdued as her new bf, plus the leftover nice-guy suddenly fully supports their relationship and they are best friends forever after.

      @@yinyangsaladgang8789 no no even your underestimating it. Love in a romantic sense did not exist before Luc and the Devil developed feelings for each other and she was the left hand of God. And the conflict? The devil was actually hella abusive and possessive over her and she found comfort from that toxic relationship in the form of Daniel, which was the first Eros love in the universe. The heavenly trial is over whether Agape love vs Eros love. And the whole curse is because half the angels want to feel Eros love and now that the devil can’t have Luc he’s trying to ban it. It ties into old Jewish mythology of angels and humans, the watchers, and nephilim. Hella wild and I still don’t even remember the ending

    Between these tropes and all, I feel like Clockwork Angel did it RIGHT. Its set in Victorian England, through the point of view of middle-high society, which in itself is a rabbit hole of epic proportions, the character is not "bland and quirky" and its one of the biggest cryptics of the trilogy as in "what the fuck is she? She ain't human!" and the "love triangle".... actualy kinda work. Both guys are in love, but both don't want it because one have less than one year to live, the other is "cursed" that everyone who likes him dies horribly. And the trilogy also have some light yet well-written steampunk + Body HORROR elements that really sells the narrative to you.

      hell yeah!!! what I love so much about those books is that albeit it being the "love triangle"trope (which j usually hate with all my heart), there is none of the toxic shit and hate and "alpha-male'ing" against each other - instead everyone just loves each other! all people of this love triangle just would die for each other no matter in which constellation - jem just purely loves will and vice versa even though they both love Tessa, and that way the story was just so much love and much less stupid drama. there is still drama ofc, but it is way less "stupid" drama that would just result by the characters being assholes to each other

    • @ArabellaTurner

I also genuinely liked both halves of the couple and the relationship between Jem and Will. I feel like you don’t see that much and that probably why it actually worked.

    Honestly from what I remember, the books were actually really good. I'm pretty sure 50% of the girls from my school has at one point read at least one book. A few of my friends and I were so invested in it that sometimes we actually used to meet at lunchtime just to discuss it. Now mind you I was 14, 15, and 16 at the time, but even the older girls like 19, and 20 were invested in it also. I even borrowed a book form one of the older girls because I didn't have it.
    So when I saw they were making a movie I was really hyped but trust me when I say i was so disappointed I cried, I literally cried. The books and the movie are like trying to turn cotton candy into cheese.
    The books honestly aren't bad and they should not make a second movie.

    Read all the Fallen Books on the recommendation of a girl I liked. They were pretty decent for a trashy fantasy romance. Not good per say, but like a greasy burger they hit the spot now and again. As a disillusioned Catholic I found the concepts really interesting, it's not Dante, but there is some cool 'expanded lore' for angels and The Fall in there if you wanna call it that. And the greater theme of the books, the Love for Each-other vs. Loyalty only to God, was pretty compelling to me at the time. Not bad as far as Teenage romance books go if I'm being honest.

It's being produced by Globoplay, a Brazilian based streaming service, and its supposed to begin streaming in 2023. Sarah Niles, from Ted Lasso, and Alexander Siddig, from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, are both gonna be in it. It'll be interesting to see how all that goes
