Obsidian by Jennifer L. Armentrout
5.0
Why has it taken me so long to start this series!? *face plam* -- full review soon.
Update:
Yeah this book rocked. Although most of it was very similar to other reads (we all know which ones make that top list) I tried to get over it because I knew the whole paranormal aspect of it would be different then pretty much all other paranormal books that I have read.
I mean aliens?! Really?! When I first found out what they were I won't lie I was actually kinda disappointed. Really, Aliens?!?! I kind of did an eye roll and continued on my way.
So yes, I totally take that eye roll back. Once you heard the complete story, the history etc I was intrigued. Armentrout did an amazing job with this one!!
Characters - Yeah I always have to get into them.
Dee - Yeah can I please have a best friend like her? A spunky, excited, sweetheart that only made you smile.
Daemon - Alright ladies and gents, before you go all "OH NO YOU DIDN'T!" on me let me explain. Unless you have extremely low standards -- he is an asshole plain and simple. Any guy with that much cockiness and bad attitude would be a rug under my feet for all I care. Waste of skin to me -- or in this case, a waste of bright light. I'd rather sit in the dark. BUT -- yes calm down there is a "but" he kinda grew on me. For once we saw those "good" sides of him which actually yes, made me like him a little bit more. Who am I trying to kid, I love the bad boys and hes definitely one of those. Plus being sexy gives him bonus points haha. Just wish he was little less jerky in the beginning.
Katy -- You go girl, that's all I can say. For maybe the first time in a fictional book, I have seen a girl actually stand up for herself against a meany like Daemon. There were moments where I had to clap and cheer and spread some womenly praise for her actions. I like you Katy Swartz -- I like you very much ;)
In the end -- I picked up this book and pretty much didn't stop reading it until the end. It was great, really great and I don't know why I have waited so long to start this series.
I will give myself a slap on the hand so you don't have too.
Besides, I may already be half-way into the second so yeah -- I'm with the rest of you fangirls about swooning over Daemon. He's proven himself ;)
yum.
