 Sypnosis (via Goodreads):
There’s something achingly familiar about Daniel Grigori.

Mysterious and aloof, he captures Luce Price’s attention from the moment she sees him on her first day at the Sword & Cross boarding school in sultry Savannah, Georgia. He’s the one bright spot in a place where cell phones are forbidden, the other students are all screw-ups, and security cameras watch every move.

Even though Daniel wants nothing to do with Luce–and goes out of his way to make that very clear–she can’t let it go. Drawn to him like a moth to a flame, she has to find out what Daniel is so desperate to keep secret . . . even if it kills her.

I loved it. Loved, loved, loved it. Awesome. Plot, characters, everything. It was great. The beginning and end were great. The middle was a bit rough, though. I think it could have been a bit more action and a bit less of "Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on". Yeah. I guess a better way to say that is "Please just hurry up".  
Anyways. I think I've found my paranormal love. You know how some people particularly love vampires, or werewolves? I have fallen in love with fallen angels (Haha. Get it? Oh well. Nevermind). Awesome. Love 'em. 
Now the end. Oh the end. First: YOU GOT RID OF PEN! WHAT THE HECK! COME ON! SHES PEN! WHAT IS UP WITH THAT?! SERIOUSLY?! COME ON!
Okay. I'm done. All done. 
The ending was good. The twists were good and it wrapped up the loose ends, leaving just enough to put in suspense while waiting for Torment. In all, great. 

By the way, I'm officially adding a new "Crying Smiley" reserved only for the awesomest books. Sadly, this doesn't quite make the cut (Hehehehe...)
