Reckoning: Laury Falter

I really enjoyed this series.  It had ONE love interest, which I really enjoy.  I like Maggie's stubbornness.  She isn't going to sacrifice her personality for the guy she loves.  She is true to herself and her calling as a Messenger.
In this book, I think it's this book...well the series (it just kinda flows) she starts killing the Fallen Ones on her own, now that she's returned to earth as an Alterum and she's a better fighter.  She leaves by herself leaving Eran behind, or so she thinks, until one night she catches a glimpse of him, but she thinks she's making it up.  Then she goes to kill this one Fallen One and she gets herself in a bit of a tight spot and Eran shows up and saves her.  The Fallen Ones are getting pissed, and they start retaliating by killing Alterums.   The Alterums decide to hold a meeting where all the Alterums come and they kind of talk about it, etc. Well Eran and Maggie decided not to go, and they were going to enjoy their time alone in the house (you know you've been waiting for them to have sex).  But when they get home, they are taken captive forced to go to London for the meeting, which is more like a trial.  Some of the Alterums wanted to hand her over to the Fallen Ones.
When she sleeps she visits her past lives to find out about herself.  But then she learns she can visit others' past lives, and so she decides to visit some of the Fallen Ones past lives.  She finds out what act causes Abbadon to fall.  Before, he'd never actually did the acts, but had people do them.


Characters to know:
Maggie: She's in love with Eran and she has her memories of her past lives back and is an Alterum in this lifetime.
Eran: Is Maggie's guardian and love.  He has a deep devotion to Maggie.  Although he has a lot of guilt about one of Maggies specific deaths.
Abbadon: The big bad of this book
Gershom:  He is a recently Fallen One who tried to turn things around, and ended up dying at Abbadon's hands, but before he died, Luce transported him to the afterlife but as a Alterum.  He really proves himself in this book.  He was the Fallen One who killed her parents.
Ezra, Felix and Rufus:  Lovely as always!  Maggie found out that they were all Alterums and are there to protect Maggie in the last book.

Eternity: Laury Falter

Man, I'm getting behind on reviewing!  I finished this a few days ago, but I've been busy. Anyways, this is the second book in the Guardian Trilogy.  This is a spoiler if you haven't read the first book.  And I have to say I liked it. 

Okay, sorry to do this, but I can't write a reveiw...the books are running together! Maybe, I'll do a review over the Whole trilogy when I finish this last book.  SORRY


Characters to know:
Maggie: She's mortal in this lifetime.  She loves Eran. 
Eran: The man who Maggie loves, and their history has been intertwined for centuries.
Gershom: A friend in the afterlife who she transported there just as he was dying.
Ezra, Felix and Rufus:  Her roomates!  They seem like a perfectly dysfunctional family, but in a good way.

Fallen: Laury Falter

So, I finally got the book I was originally going to read.  And I have to say it wasn't too bad. I really like that there was only ONE love interest.  It gets old with there being two!  That aside, I have to say this book had me intrigued from the beginning.  Which is something I love!  I hate having to trudge along 200 pages and then it gets good.  But this  caught my attention.  I'm glad it's a trilogy, because I have two more books to look forward to.
It starts off with Maggie, moving to New Orleans.  She's used to moving a LOT.  But this time it's a little different, she won't be living with her aunt, she's renting a house and she's gonna have a roommate, at least she thinks it's just one until she wakes up one morning and there are three people downstairs. She has an unusual gift, she can communicate with the dead.  And being in New Orleans, she makes quite a bit of money down out the Square.  She ends up encountering a few people who make the hair on the back of her neck stand up just being in their presence.  On the first day she has this feeling she's almost run over and is saved by some obnoxiously arrogant man, who is gone in a blink of an eye.  Eventually, she starts at this new private prestigious school, which she's not exactly thrilled about.  And she has these sames strange encounters with a few people.  With a few more near death experiences, she's saved by that same guy who saved her the first time. Bum bum bum!!!  Who is this dude?

Characters to know:
Maggie: She has a gift to speak for the dead and recently an ungodly number of near death experiences.
Eran: The mystery man who saves her every time.  Maggie feels some sort of connection with him.
Achan:  The guy who tries to kill her first, and her new classmate. 
Gershom:  She gets that hair-on-the-back-of-the-neck feeling when he's around, but befriends him anyways.
Ezra, Felix and Rufus:  Her roomates!  They seem like a perfectly dysfunctional family, but in a good way.
