This week on Watch it or Read it, Amanda and Dayelle take a dive (or maybe a fall?) into Fallen, the YA paranormal romance that promised epic angel drama… and delivered something else entirely. They read the book, endured the epically bad movie, and checked out the newer TV adaptation so you don’t have to (but maybe you should?). Amanda did not hold back, she's got thoughts. Big ones. Meanwhile, Dayelle may or may not have watched the movie more times than she’s willing to admit and still has a soft spot for this gloriously messy movie. From tortured angels to confusing timelines to fanfiction-level dialogue, they dish hard on everything Fallen. So… should you watch it or read it, or let this one stay in 2009 where it belongs?
