Wow! I loved the first in this series so much, but this one is even better. The Bachelor meets, The Hunger Games and creates this amazing book. Everything about Ella makes me love her, she's sassy yet insecure, strong yet vulnerable and damn she has some great comebacks! The world building in this book is simply magical, you can almost see it from the descriptions. I'm hungry for books 3!

I hate to love you!
My love Hate relationship with the Fallen World Series continues! I LOVE these books and HATE when I finish one! They are gripping and this one had a slight The Selection theme and I am ALL. FOR. THAT! I am such a fan of Ella and her growth, she is a quiet type of resilient and I’m enjoying this. I’m so excited to see what happens next!
Happy Reading

Broken is the second book in the Fallen World Series by C. R. Jane and Mila Young, which has Ella Monroe’s story continuing immediately on from Bound (which was an amazing first book). However, nothing about Ella’s story is straightforward though, especially with the three Vepar's - Thane, Corran and Derrial, who have their own ideas about what Ella’s role will be and delusions about the situation Ella is in.
The title of this book is perfect, as Ella is initially hopeless and dependant on the men/creatures who have her trapped - summed up nicely as Broken. But ultimately her underlying strength, determination and bravery make her a fantastic character to read.
Once again the world that C. R. Jane and Mila Young’s has created is imaginative and addictive. This sci-fi dystopian reverse harem will leave you begging for more, and I can’t wait to read Betrayed. I do feel like a HEA is due for Ella in the third book, but I guess we’ll just have to wait to see what these two authors come up with.

Nah, I think I'm going to call it quits with this series. I was just hoping for better character development by this point and I just can't really identify anything that sets these guys apart other than Corran is a scientist. That's it. Otherwise they could be interchangable in their interactions with Ella.
Kind of a bummer. Wanted to like this more.
