Oh this kept me on my toes and I have loved it. Any one else wanted to throw a certain someone through a window and call it a day? No just me?

Opal es la tercera entrega de la saga Lux, los primeros fueron Obsidian (reseña acá) y Onyx (reseña acá), pero no sé que es lo que me sucede con las sagas que más que frecuentemente sucede que la tercera entrega me gusta más: Harry Potter, Hush Hush, Crepúsculo, Los Juegos del Hambre, etc, etc, etc... Lo juro, siempre el tercero, y Opal se convirtió en mi favorito de la saga.
No hay tanta acción como en los demás y eso me gustó, un poco de relax por favor, si no, es todo demasiado aventurero. Pero el misterio y el romance estuvieron allí en todo el libro. Hay muchas pautas que te dan al misterio que poco a poco los protagonistas (Katy y Deamon), van desentramando, lleganddo así al final del cuál voy a hablar más adelante.
La relación de los protagonistas fue sublime... ¿Se dan cuenta que amé a Deamon antes? Bueno, ahora mi amor por él es gigantezco, tanto que me enamora y mata. Lo adoro, es tan dulce y tierno, pero a la vez, es tan idiota que lo querés golpear y besar a la vez. Sin duda me mata.
Katy por otro lado, está más guerrera y decidida a todo, y eso me encantó. Si bien ella en las otras dos entregas también me gustaba, en esta, es más que gustar. Adoro que su personalidad no sea la de una blanca florecilla, si no que sea valiente, tenaz y que sorprenda con su carácter más de una vez a todos.
Los otros personajes, que si bien van y vienen por la historia, y que fueron cambiando en el transcurso del tiempo del libro, no me llamaron jamás la atención, y por ello, ni los menciono.
El final -SPOLIERS ACÁ- fue algo... AHHHHHHHHHH! Me muero ¿saben? Todo el final es una cosa de acción, emoción y no sé ustedes pero yo tuve el corazón y el estómago en un puño diciendo todo el tiempo: algo malo va a pasar, algo malo va a pasar... ¡Y pasó! ¡Y si que pasó! La secuestraron, agarraron a Katy y yo me quedé como WTF? NO! Pero si, la secuestraron, y cuando la están agarrando Deamon le dice que siempre la amo, que la ama y que va a volver por ella, y yo en ese momento morí por segunda vez. ¡Es demasiado! Adoré el final, que sin duda me dejó con ganas y más ganas de leer el cuarto libro que se estrena en exactamente 18 días! ¡Traducción! ¿Por favor, amada gente lectora?. Conclución: ¡Lo Adoré! JAJAJA. Saludos, Danna

deevarr's review against another edition

it just doesn’t work for me
I am trying so hard to power through this series but it is so hard. It drags and I find it to be so uninteresting. I am so tired of the main character Katy and her lack of seeing people and things for what they really are. The crying over people who try to kill her, that she is forced to kill in self defense, doesn’t make sense to me. I cannot get into the lives of a bunch of teenagers, I can’t relate at this point in my life. It makes no sense to me how they could ever trust Blake after everything he has done. Katy never learns and continues to keep things from Daemon when it pertains to Blake and his malfeasance.
So many things annoys me with this book/series

Thirteen hours later and I still can't wrap my head around that ending. I am an emotional reader, and that ending. Whoa. I just want to cry. Jennifer Armentrout did in amazing job with her third book in the Lux series.
Kat and Daemon are official! Ahh! (I think we all knew this though, right?) Their relationship is my favorite part of this series. They aren't a typical couple. They aren't even of the same species but that is beside the point. They are all lovey and mushy with each other, but they still argue and bicker. Deamon still has major ego issues, that Katy has fed into this book.
The development of Deamon and Katy since Obsidian is amazing. Daemon isn't as infuriating anymore. Don't get me wrong, he is, just not as much. Example:
"There’s a lot of spontaneous combustion going on..." You can say that again. I love books with lots of kissing in it. I am not embarrassed to admit it. This book did not fail to deliver at all. Especially in the romance department. Especially on Prom night what Daemon sets up for Katy. Talk about swoon worthy.
I will never like Blake. I don't care if there is money on the line. There is no way I will ever like that boy. After what he pulled last book and now he has black mailed Katy and Daemon into helping him or he will turn them into the DOD. Freaking weasel!
Just when I thought Katy learned not to trust the boy. My blood is boiling over the end still. They should have never helped him and took their chances. Nothing good comes from helping Blake. I did enjoy the amount of time Daemon threatened to kill, maim, hurt, or destroy Blake, it was pretty entertain and earned a few laughs.
I am keeping this review painfully short because I am afraid if I write anymore I would give away important things that will happen. Both good and bad of course!
HERE ARE A FEW QUOTES AND SAYING FROM THE BOOK I ENJOYED:
- Dee to Katy and Daemon
- Katy and Daemon
- Daemon to Andrew (What could he have been interrupting? *wiggles eyebrows*)
- Katy about Daemon
- Daemon to Katy
*My parting message to Daemon*

“A slow, wry smile teased Daemon’s lips. "Simmer down, Kitten, before I have to get you a ball of yarn to play with."
Annoyance flared deep inside me. "Don’t start with me, jerk-face.”

HERE ARE A FEW QUOTES AND SAYING FROM THE BOOK I ENJOYED:
“Oh, dear God and baby Jesus in the manger, my eyes!” Dee shrieked. “My eyes!”
My own eyes snapped open. Daemon lifted his head, eyes luminous. Then I realized my hands were still up his shirt. I yanked them out.
“Oh my God,” I whispered, mortified.
Daemon said something that burned my ears. “Dee, you didn’t see anything.” And then he added much lower, “Because you have impeccable timing.”
“You were on…her and your mouths were doing this.” I could just imagine her hand signals at that point. She went on. “And that’s more than I want to see. Like, ever.”
- Dee to Katy and Daemon
“I have the feeling we just made a deal with the devil, and he's going to come back and want our first-born child or something."
Daemon waggled his brows. "You want kids? Because you know, practice makes--"
"Shut up." I shook my head and started walking.”
- Katy and Daemon
“A few seconds after he stepped out into the hallway and closed the door behind him, there was a fleshly smack and then Andrew yelling, “Ouch. What in the hell was that for?” “Your timing sucks on an epic level,” Daemon shot back.”
- Daemon to Andrew (What could he have been interrupting? *wiggles eyebrows*)
“He was such an asshole, and I loved him.”
- Katy about Daemon
“Daemon snatched the yellow packages from my hands. “Oh! Books! You have books!”
I laughed as several people waiting in line looked over their shoulders. “Hand them over.”
He clutched them to his chest, making moony eyes. “My life is now complete.”
“My life would be complete if I could actually post a review on something other than the school library computers.”
I did that about twice a week since my latest laptop went to the big computer heaven in the sky.”
- Daemon to Katy
*My parting message to Daemon*

NO NO NO stupid Blake.
I am so sad dee and Katy's relationship was wrecked but I loved that it got patched up a bit.
I knew Blake was horrible and he shouldn't of been trusted but they had no choice.
Poor Carisa. I think the DOD got to her.
I hate that Katy was separated from everyone.
I NEED BOOK 4

This one was the best.
The ending ripped my heart out and into a million pieces. I am really debating dropping the series. I understand that Dee is heartbroken in ways that words can't describe but she really can't take it out on Katy. She chose to take Adam in there with her when Daemon told her to wait outside.
Anyway, there is a little too much angst for my liking so I'm going to find a new series.

4,5/5
J’avais trouvé le tome 2 un peu plus lent et rythmé plus sur la relation entre Daemon et Katy mais ce tome 3 était génial. L’ambiance plus sombre était parfaite pour rentrer dans l’histoire à tel point qu’on aurait pu se croire avec eux.
Cette ambiance s’explique par la finalité de ce troisième tome, leur mission s’avère tellement impossible et parsemée d’obstacles, cependant ils vont trouver à chaque fois une solution pour les surmonter. Cependant, aucun d’eux ne s’attendait à la fin et je n’accepte toujours pas cette fin j’étais tellement en colère et triste contre un personnage qui ne cesse de les trahir encore et encore pour accomplir sa propre mission.
Katy, malgré tous les obstacles qui se dressent devant elle reste forte et désire tous les protéger plus que tout même si elle doit se mettre en danger et elle refuse d’être la demoiselle en détresse que Daemon aimerait qu’elle soit pour éviter les problèmes.

I don't even know how to describe how much I love this series. The love story, the connection, the constant drama/fighting, this book is a whirl wind of excitement. This series just keeps getting better.
