Hell on Earth.

That’s what it’s like for Luce to be apart from her fallen angel boyfriend, Daniel. It took them an eternity to find one another, but now he has told her he must go away. Just long enough to hunt down the Outcasts - immortals who want to kill Luce. Daniel hides Luce at Shoreline, a school on the rocky California coast with unusually gifted students: Nephilim, the offspring of fallen angels and humans.

At Shoreline, Luce learns what the Shadows are, and how she can use them as windows to her previous lives. Yet the more Luce learns, the more she suspects that Daniel hasn’t told her everything. He’s hiding something - something dangerous. What if Daniel’s version of the past isn’t actually true? What if Luce is really meant to be with someone else?

It is fun and fantasy no reality it lets me disconnect from the troubles of my life. I am a romantic and thinking that everything will work out in the end is what I want.

Of course Twilight and City of Bones

The final battle at then end when Luce decides that she might love Daniel but she needs to find herself first.

No it didn't make me cry or laugh but I did worry for the lives of some of my fav characters.

Any additional comments?

Just listen and loose yourself from your worries, like your dead end job, partner with cancer, house that needs to be vacumed, lawn to mow, weeds to pull. Escape!!

Tiny bit better

Spoiler alert 🚨

This book.. it is a tiny bIt better then the first, it does seam all over the place still and I want to hate the lead girl UNTILL the end and I was like freaking finally ugh!! At last she makes a good choice for herself! The herself part being important, and she made so many stupid choices and a lot of it is being left in the dark and trying to just figure stuff out with absolutely no guidance. Then this guy claims to know her above all people but after so many repeated try’s to save her he didn’t see her wanting to know answers?!?! What a dumbo! I am actually looking forward to the next book now that she is making her own choices.

struggled to finish and kinda boring

very slow and boring to start. I had to rewind and repeat several times. hope it gets better because I bought all the books

Love

The narrator was excellent. There are many new characters, some of whom you love and some of whom you really grow to hate, as well as old favorites. Luce finds more pieces to whom she used to be. The love triangle continues.

Dragged on a bit for me

Struggled to finish this one and the first. not sure why. Just seemed like the story dragged a bit. Good story, just a not slower than I'm used to. we'll see how book 3 is.

Well Done!

I thoroughly enjoyed the character in Fallen and now Torment. It has been a pleasure to see the development of the previous characters and the introduction of new characters and how they may influence the former characters. I find myself torment and am not sure if I am routing for the relationship to work out or not. The ending leaves just enough to have you wanting more...next stop: Passion.

Love the Story, Hate the Audio

Would you consider the audio edition of Torment to be better than the print version?

Nooooooooooo. The reader was nasally and the abook kept skipping.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Torment?

I loved when Miles kissed Luce. Daniel can go kick rocks!

How did the narrator detract from the book?

The narrator had a nasally, winy sound to her voice. It was very, very annoying.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Back to the Miles kiss!
