I devoured this book. I found myself taking my kindle with me any chance I could, sneaking in a few paragraphs every moment my attention didn't need to be somewhere else. That is how you know you have found an incredible read. When you literally cannot fathom leaving the pages and returning to reality. When the characters are talking to you in your head and you cannot ignore their demands to be heard. This book consumed me. So much has changed, people, places, the entire world....and yet there is that one connection that makes everything worth it all. Knowing the love is real, feeling it pouring out of the pages, its so beautiful. Such an incredible world Jennifer Armentrout has created and I cannot get enough.

Het begin was wederom super, al voelde het verder in het boek steeds meer als overbodig extra.

It was good. I'm not going to lie, though, there were parts that were hard for me to get through, because I was so pissed off.

But overall, it was fantastic, and I'm excited to see how this all wraps up in the next book.

What just happened?
I'm like sitting here with- as Katy would say- a WTF look on my face. Just... Holy shit. That was a lot to take in.
I'm going to spoil some things now.
Just, oh my god Daemon's so fucking cute. He turned himself in for the girl he loved and now he won't stop saying I love you and AHH ITS TOO CUTE!
Katy, I have to give it her, she pulled some pretty badass moves in Origin and Opal. She is not the girl she was in Obsidian.
Now, the ending.
Matthew, I liked him. I like really liked him and was like aw, gimme a Matthew in real life to be like a role model to me. BUT NOPE, THAT THOUGHT WENT DOWN THE FUCKING TOILET! What an asshole, if you wanna fucking protect your family, protect ALL OF THEM not a select few. Thank god he's dead, Dawson one point for you.
So Andrew is dead. I was starting to like him. He wasn't Adam, but he was growing on me. THEN HE HAD TO DIE. And you know, I was thinking, that blast thing is fatal to Luxen but not to hybrids. So if Beth was hit with the pulse thing, she'd just get hurt instead of die until Ash who would most certainly die. Did Ash not know it wouldn't kill Beth or did she? Did Ash commit suicide in an act of heroism? I understand her actions if she did but like, damn. She was growing on me too.
Then the living group gets to the loaded fifteen-year-olds other mansion in the middle of nowhere Idaho, and Beth is pregnant, Katy is all over the news, and evil Luxens have arrived???
I'm still processing all of this but... Damn.
I need Opposition now.

I really loved this one. I love that she really cranked up the action and intensity. That's what makes it hard for me to put a book down. I liked the add in of Daemon's perspective. Another One-nighter for me:)

There is so much happening in this book and at this point I have completely forgotten what happens so it’s basically like I’m reading it for the first time again. What’s happening with Beth I guessed. I’m enjoying rereading this series so much and I’m so glad that I didn’t get rid of these books. To me, these aren’t reading like YA normally does and I think that’s why I’m enjoying it so much. I’m kind of sad I only have one book left in this series but I’ve been having such a good time reading them.

this took me a long time to finish because for some reason it didn't capture me like the other ones. It wasn't till around 60% in that it got interesting for me. Don't know if it was me or the book, but the previous books I would finish in about 2 days. The ending was very cool though so I will read the next one.
