The Fallen Star is about a girl with violet eyes named Gemma. She is very different. She was, for the majority of her life, unemotional, but she recently had a brought on emotion that was so overwhelmingly powerful that she didn't know what to do. This seemed to have been caused by a strange prickle on the back of her neck. She then meets two characters, she doesn't know it yet, but they are very important to her future, with bright green eyes. As the book progresses she finds out things about her life that had a HUGE impact on her, and met other "people", both good and bad. I won't say much more so I don't spoil it, but Gemma is a special girl and isn't sure what to do and think all the time, so don't be surprised of she has a lot of weird mood swings.
If you have read my blogs befire, then you know not I talk about whether I liked it or not. I LOVED this book!!! I can not express how much I like this book. The book is a 419 page book, and I read it is about three days. I started it laying in my bead lade Monday night/early Tuesday morning and finished it about 1:15 Friday morning. Every chance I got I just read. I was constantly reading this book. I read it on my way to cheer, on my way home, all the time, plus leaving time for class and spending time with family. That is the quickest I have read a book in my life. I am not a very fast reader, so this goes to show how much I like this book. If you ask any of my friends they will tell you that I was constantly reading every chance I get. I even locked my self in the back room in one of my classrooms so I could get some alone time to read. It really loved this book and I couldn't put it down. I am not being bias either. It is not a coincidence that Jessica and I have the same last name. Jessica is my sister-in-law. By being told about the book, I wasn't sure if I wanted to read it or not, but I decided that one night to start reading it and from that point on I couldn't help my self. I just read.
Would I recommend this book to you? I think that if you actually read the above paragraph, then you know that I am going to say Absolutely! You should absolutely read this book. I have nothing against the Twilight Series, I liked that, but this book doesn't just focus on vampires or aliens or anything, it has several different types of fictional creatures, and some new ones that I have never heard of, but it could just be me. If you are looking for a different type of book to read and you are sick of all the romances out there, read this book. Of course this book has a romance in it, but I would not classify this book as a "girly" book at all. I think it is a great book, and I recommend that you all read it. The Fallen Star by Jessica Sorensen.
