I don't know why these time periods things make me cringe, I just feel as if they are not well researched.
This was one of those books that you read because it's part of the [b:Fallen|6487308|Fallen (Fallen, #1)|Lauren Kate|https://d2arxad8u2l0g7.cloudfront.net/books/1440619649s/6487308.jpg|6678670] series. That's why I read it, because it was a few short stories that happen before the events of the next book.
But, honestly, I felt like I could have skipped it. I'm glad I didn't though cause the stories were good.
Miles and Shelby was cute and all.
We got to learn a bit more about Roland, a character I didn't really think I needed a backstory from but I'm glad I got it.
Arriane's story was probably the only story I did need to read. I mean to finally know how she got the scar. It was a heart breaking story but it makes me like Arriane even more.
Lucinda and Daniels story was honestly pointless. They only ever spent one Valentine's Day together, but the glimpses of her past life in [b:Passion|9369720|Passion (Fallen, #3)|Lauren Kate|https://d2arxad8u2l0g7.cloudfront.net/books/1362339802s/9369720.jpg|10958266] were more romantic than this.
I'm not saying I didn't like this book, I did. It was good, but not really great. I think I didn't enjoy it because I really wanted to find out what happened after the end of Passion and move onto [b:Rapture|12716010|Rapture (Fallen, #4)|Lauren Kate|https://d2arxad8u2l0g7.cloudfront.net/books/1362339818s/12716010.jpg|14103064] already. Can't wait to start it.

Fallen in love is yet another supplement of the babble that is Luce's mind. This book was just as disappointing as the others in the Fallen series and I would only recommend it to people who like to listen to whiny little girls obsess over their boyfriends.
I don't believe I've ever rolled my eyes so much in my entire life. While I enjoy the books in the Fallen series I've found I have to space them out a year or so apart to deal with the sickly sweetness of them. This book, a compilation of short stories about the characters on Valentine's Day, is just too much. From very early on I couldn't wait for it to end so I could move on to something else. I'll be finishing the series, but probably won't be reading anything else by [a:Lauren Kate|2905297|Lauren Kate|http://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/authors/1296679724p2/2905297.jpg] again.

I liked this a lot more especially because it was mostly about everyone else besides Luce and Daniel....
~WARNING: Spoilers~
A wast of paper, if you ask me. Now don't get me wrong I love this series is much is the next person, but this book 3.5 was not needed. It was random and poorly written. The only good part is that Shelby and Miles get together. Arrianes story is just strange... It explains how she got her scar in her neck... It was a stupid way. -_- It didn't make sense to me. Rolands story was ok-ish... (better than Arrianes) It didn't have much of a point though besides getting Daniel to the Valentines day the fair thing. Luce and Daniels story was nice though... But overall it really wasn't needed. She could have posted them online as deleted short storys. That would have made them better I think because then you don't have such high hopes for it.

I actually can’t possibly finish this series I’m just getting so board and I’m just ready to read something new.
