A review by marianaagraca
Obsidian by Jennifer L. Armentrout
3.0
My thoughts:
I guess i will be in a lot of trouble doing this review and explaining why i gave only 3,5 stars.So i start reading obsidian cause everybody in goodreads was talking about daemon and i wanted to know what was the all fuss about it.So don't kill me because i only gave 3,5 stars!I already read Onyx and it was so much better and i will be definitely struggling waiting for Opal.The thing is..the series is growing up on me so who knows if Opal gonna get my 5 stars rating.
Main Characters:
Meet Daemon:
“Beautiful face. Beautiful body. Horrible attitude. It was the holy trinity of hot boys.”
I don't have any problem with daemon.Sure in the begging he was a sexy douche but a douche.What can i say,i love a "good" bad boy!When you get to know daemon you just fall head over heels in love. The smirks and the sexy comments just did it for me.
Meet Katy:
First i really love that katy loved books more than anything and had a blog about books.i can relate to that.But then she just give me the bella vibe sometimes.
In common with bella:
-She is beautiful but thinks she is just ugly and plain.Bella,someone?
But if you pay attention most of the girls from YA books think that way.
-Insecurities. Insecurities everywhere.
-And third,how can you see a alien and not to be afraid? or how can someone tell he is vampire and not run?
Differences:
-When Daemon humiliate Katy,she fought back.The stains in his shirt can prove it.
-Katy don't admit her desire or love for him in the first book,she need time to get to know him and decide if he's worth a shot.
-Katy is a spicy girl and her thoughts about Daemon are priceless!
Sum up:My problems were about Katy being a bit like Bella that's why i don't gave 4 stars.But Katy really surprise me by being daemon independent and not give in to the Alien hot mess called Daemon Black.
Favorite Quotes:
“I've always found that the most beautiful people, truly beautiful inside and out, are the ones who are quietly unaware of their effect." His eyes searched mine intently, and for a moment we stood there toe to toe. "The ones who throw their beauty around, waste what they have? Their beauty is only passing. It's just a shell hiding nothing but shadows and emptiness.”
“The day my internet was hooked up was better than having a hot guy check out my butt and ask for my phone number.”
“If she was mine, I'd cherish every inch of her. And I wanted to. Now”
“Daemon: I checked out your blog.
Katy: Stalking me again, I see. Do I need to get a restraining order?
Daemon: In your dreams, Kitten. Oh wait, I'm already starring in those, aren't I?
Katy: Nightmares, Daemon. Nightmares.”
