Passion by Lauren Kate
3.0

aye, beware. May contain total spoilers... and fangirling c:

Wow.

I actually really like Passion. It was more in-depth than the first two and actually introduced us; the audience, to Daniel's and Luce's past; instead of just mention a snippet or two in between brief conversations and cryptic prologues + epilogues.

When I read the first chapter, I was instantly intrigued and sucked into the world through Luce's and occasionally, Daniel's eyes. I really loved how Luce's past selves were introduced with different interpretations of her name: Lucinda, Lusckha, Lucia, Lu Xin and so on.. as well as Daniel's name: Daniil, De...

What really confused me though, was how the 'Chinese Daniel' and 'Egyptian Daniel' were introduced. God, now I'm acting like they're Barbie and Ken dolls.



Aaanyways, I was thinking how in the world does Daniel look Chinese and Egyptian when he doesn't even reincarnate? He lives through time so ... what is it? Is it some kind of angelic super power? I got so frustrated.

Another topic - Bill. I really, really liked his character. He was sort of the cute sidekick of the story, except he wasn't cute at all and was something more sinister than a sidekick. Yep.. when I found out Bill.. was... actually... Lucifer.



Oh. yeah. Cliffhanger. AGAIN.
