{Review} Obsidian (Lux #1) by Jennifer L. Armentrout

5 amazing stars!!

I apologize in advance for this review. I may have went a little overboard with my Daemon gifs, some of which adds absolutely nothing to my review. But what the hell, I like looking at them, so they stay in my review.

Peace.

You know what they say right? It's better late than never. Well, it's safe to say that I'm late to the whole Daemon Black obsession train. I'm also late when it comes to the whole "Jennifer L. Armentrout is an amazing writer" train. But damn if that stopped me from loving this book.

Daemon Black

He takes the award for being the hottest alien around. I mean, come on, dark hair, green eyes and a rock hard body? Plus, he had this whole mysterious vibe to him, which is understandable since he's an alien for crying out loud! And him being an arrogant jerk didn't detract but instead added to his appeal.

But enough about him. Let's talk about her, too.

Katy

Loved Katy's character from the get go. She's the perfect foil for Daemon and although she's not an alien, she has, on more that one occasion, held her own against Daemon and against a few Arums. Very brave, very resourceful and very snarky which makes for a really fun reading.

And not to mention that Daemon and Katy has sizzling hot chemistry. JLA writes one heck of steamy book without the two main characters ever having sex. Just a lot of hot looks, meaningful touches and viola, you have loads of sexual tension in your hand. Sometimes I forget that these characters are in high school. It should have been wrong in so many levels but I didn't really care.

This is only the first book in the series and I am definitely hooked right now. So far, I loved everything about this book. I loved the secondary characters especially Dee and I can't wait to see more of them in the upcoming books.

Bully by Penelope Douglas

Blurb

My name is Tate. He doesn't call me that, though. He would never refer to me so informally, if he referred to me at all.

We're neighbors,and once, we were best friends. But then, one summer, he turned on me and has made it his mission to screw up my life at every opportunity. I've been humiliated, shut out, and gossiped about all through high school. His pranks and rumors got more sadistic as time wore on, and I made myself sick trying to hide from him. I worried about what was around every corner and behind every door.

So I left.

I spent a year studying abroad and bathed in the freedom of life without Jared. Now I'm back to finish up high school and get the hell out of here forever. I'm hoping that after a year of breathing room, he's moved on and forgotten all about me.

But even if he hasn't changed, I have. I'm not interested in avoiding him or turning the other cheek anymore. We're going to go head to head, because neither of us wants to back down.

Forever Too Far by Abbi Glines

3.5 stars

To be perfectly honest, I vacillated many, many times as to how to rate this book. Finally, after sleeping on it and thinking about it, I finally settled for 3.5. I wish I could give this one a solid 4 or even a 5 but there were too many things that bothered me.

Anyway, onto the review. Let's start with the good first.
