A pretty pointless book. I am not sure what I think of this new trend in the YA series genre of the 1/2 books. Sometimes they are a good way to learn more about a secondary character that there is not time to delve into deeper in the main series (see Michael Scott and his short stories that compliment the The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel) but other times, it just seems kind of a waste, or a way for an author to publish more.
This was one of those. The book consists of a 4 little "short stories" all taking place in the past of Daniel and Luce, on Valentine's Day. Unfortunately, none of these little stories added much to any of the characters or the over all story arc. It wasn't painful to read, just sort of left me feeling like "so what?"
On the plus side, it is about 200 pages, which on can breeze through super quickly, skimming about half of it. I have to say I am very glad I did not invest my dollars in this one and just borrowed it from the library.

Dar viena perskaityta šios serijos knyga. Tačiau, va, bus man neskaityt anotacijų, o atsižvelgti į knygos viršelį. Užrašyta, kad ketvirta dalis, o pasirodo tai tiesiog papildoma knyga, kitų akimis apie vieną dieną viduramžiuose. Buvo smagu skaityti ir daug sužinoti apie kitus veikėjus, angelus, apie jų gyvenimus, meiles, tačiau noriu kuo greičiau kibti į normalų tęsinį.

Could have gone without this book, tbh. Me, and the series, too. It seems like a quickly-sloppy-written thing to squeeze some more money off the readers.
Shelby and Miles' "love story" i so unnecessary... We met them briefly at "Torment" (I say "briefly" because I didn't feel any connection between them and Luce, at least not a real one. It's as if they were forced to become friends just for the plot...) and then POOF! - at the end of "Rapture" they are married and waiting a baby. Okay, who cares? Going on. Like why bother writing an "explanation" of how we missed a boring love story?
Roland's love story was meh. And him acting so selflessly was predictable l. Missed opportunity to make it thrilling!
Ariana's story, though, was the only good thing in "Fallen in Love".
Honestly, I am happy this novel was short. Wasn't really worth the time...

As much as i hate giving books low ratings, this book just bored me. There wasn't something that i thought "oh wow!" I read the book in a couple of hours, and i was disappointed. I doubt i'll read it again :(
