Información de este libro electrónico

No hay nadie como Daemon Black. Cuando se propuso demostrarme sus sentimientos, no bromeaba. Nunca volveré a dudar de él. Y ahora que hemos superado tantas dificultades, saltan chispas cada vez que estamos cerca. Pero ni siquiera él puede proteger a su familia del peligro que supone intentar liberar a los inocentes.
Después de todo lo que ha pasado, ya no soy la misma Katy.
He cambiado… Y no estoy segura de las consecuencias de este cambio. Con cada paso que damos para desvelar la verdad nos acercamos más a la organización secreta responsable de torturar y someter a experimentos a los híbridos, y me doy cuenta de que mis habilidades son mucho mayores de lo que imaginaba.
Recibimos ayuda de quien menos esperábamos y los amigos se convierten en enemigos. Pero jamás nos rendiremos. Aunque esto implique que nuestro mundo acabe hecho añicos para siempre. Juntos somos más fuertes. Y lo saben.

    This book wasn't as compelling as the previous two, and I was a little disappointed at the lack of character development for both Katy and Daemon. I liked getting to know Dawson though, and the ending almost killed me.While Obsidian was quirky and fun and Onyx was hilarious with a dark edge, Opal is quite angst-ridden and disjointed. There are steamy romantic scenes places haphazardly between nail-biting action and moments of extreme anxiety. Kat spends most of her time worrying about everyone and everything, but spontaneously forgets everything the moment Daemon touches her. The quick changes in mood took away from the pleasure of reading.Simmer down, Kitten, before I have to get you a ball of yearn to play with.****It sucked-sucked worse than people who pirated books, sucked more than a year for the next book in a beloved series, and sucked more than a brutal cliffhanger ending.I expected Daemon to stop being such a colossal tool once he was in a relationship with Katy, but he stayed the same incorrigible idiot and, instead of being amusing, mostly annoyed me throughout the novel. What made is worse, in my opinion, is that Kat is aware that Daemon is less than perfect but repeatedly asserts that his great looks, sexy voice and super-duper alien powers make up for it.I liked Dawson, and found his slow opening up to those around him really sweet. I expected a few more violent outbursts from him though, considering all that he has been through: in the end he was a lot more stable than I expected. I look forward to hopefully getting to know Beth in the next book, since I haven't read Shadows yet. I was disappointed (yet again) and how little interaction Katy has with others, especially since in this book Dee and Katy aren't exactly bosom buddies. Her human friends fade into the background and the other aliens are painted with quite a broad brush, which makes the story lopsided when it comes to normalcy. It doesn't help that most of the 'normalcy' in Katy's life comes in the form of smexy times with her boyfriend. The continued absence of her mother also slits the story.I really liked the book-blogger references in the previous books, but in this book I think they went a little too far. The stand out thing was when Katy expressed how unhappy she was with a situation by likening it to book piracy, year-long waits between books in a series and cliffhanger endings - it was just too much. I did like her excitement at getting books in the mail since it mirrored my own reactions, but the whole book blogger thing is starting to get repetitive and ridiculous.Overall, I think it's clear that Opal is the weakest book in the series so far, but it's still been good to read. The ending ensures readers will be back for more (a cheap trick if you ask me, but whatever), and I will be reading the rest of the series. The Lux series is a great, light science fiction for fans of young adult books looking for something filled with equal measures of romance and action.You can read more of my reviews at Speculating on SpecFic.

    If you read my other reviews, you know that I hooked to Daemon Black. And after reading this book, I can. Not. Compute.I'm going to start with the ending of the book cause my mind simply does not know what to make of it. Seriously?! What in the world just happened? I had to re-read the last paragraph a few times just to make sure I read what I read. And then I took a deep breathe, slamming the book to the floor. No. Just no. It can not....*smh*Alright, now that I got that out of my system I really loved this book. Despite the desperate emotionally ending, I'm officially in love with Jennifer Armentrout. Her writing is phenomenal and always on target. The plot of the book is so awesome, once I started the book I would finish it till the last page. The love interest is of course freaking awesome! Daemon is back and better than ever. Katy and Daemon love blooms to an enticing level you never want to get out of. I adore Katy's loyalty to Daemon and his family. She goes out of her way to make sure she does her part. Their fights make their relationship real. They don't sugarcoat stuff or lie to each other. They are a team, working together for the same cause.Back to the ending, it was awesome. In those small moments of change and declaration, my eyes teared up. I felt everything rushing back, the first time they met, the first kiss, the first fight, all for it to come down to this. Opal is an expertly woven tale of action and adventure. It's set the goals higher than ever for the next book. It creates a deeper depth of emotion that set me on overload. Even days after reading it, I still can't believe it. An indescribable story that keeps getting better and better, Opal is compelling.

    The third book in this exciting Lux series had me reading all day and into the night as I couldn't leave the book without wondering what was happening to my favorite aliens. They are sexy and the banter/sexual tension between Daemon and Katy never disappoints. It seems Katy can't be left alone for one-second without a new threat entering her house and ruining her love life. It's exciting to watch as Katy's powers increase and more of the Luxen world is revealed. Out of the entire series this book had the most twists and turns. July won't come soon enough for me and waiting until then for the next book will be torture.The only reason why I didn't give this book five stars is because it ended exactly how I expected it to, but hey thats how you keep a series going I guess. I just wanted to jump in the book and smack the characters upside the head and tell them to stop being so stupid. But I really did love this book and it kept stringing me along.

    Wow. Okay, first of all, let me complain. TWO CLIFFHANGERS IN ONE YEAR, JEN? REALLY? Ahem. I feel better now. This book was SO intense and emotional and beautiful. The ending was so "omg did this just happen?" As I've come to expect with JLA books, Opal blew me away. I couldn't get enough of this novel, and when I finished it (at 4am), it was all I could do not to scream "NOOOOO" at the top of my lungs. I did not see that ending coming, and I'm still not sure how I feel about it. I know I have to find out what happens next. I know that I'm quite concerned for everyone. I also know that July can't come quickly enough. The characters and their relationships evolved realistically. There were a lot of surprises. This, in my opinion, is the best book in the series. Katy and Daemon are turning into amazing characters, and their relationship was explosive in this installment. Katy sometimes sounded like she went to marriage counseling one too many times with her repeated proclamations that she "knows this is coming from a good place," though. I've always loved Daemon, but this side of him totally sealed the deal. He's got to be the most swoon-worthy YA male love interest EVER. Dee changed a lot, and while I understood what she was going through, I didn't like the change. She was slowly coming back to herself, but I missed the old Dee. Ash got on my nerves as usual. Andrew wasn't so bad, and I actually liked Matthew this time around.The plot was intense, emotional, sweet, soul-crushing, and amazing. I don't even know how to talk about it beyond that, really, and I don't want to spoil anything for anyone who hasn't read the book yet. There are TONS of surprises in this novel, and I'd hate to be the one to ruin them all, so I'll just leave it at the plot does not disappoint and fans of JLA and the Lux series will be thrilled with it. As I mentioned, the ending is a cliffhanger, and while I hate that, I understand. It totally sets up the last two books in the series. I have a feeling Origin, which comes out in July, is going to be a tough read though. I bet I'll cry a ton. Overall, I'd recommend this book (and this series) to EVERYONE. Opal is the best book in the series, and arguably the best book JLA has written to date. You can't miss this one, but be prepared to lose some sleep.

    With the second book surpassing the first, I was expecting things to keep getting better and for this to be my new favorite, but unfortunately that didn’t happen. This was my least favorite of the three.While it was nice that Katy and Dameon were finally an official couple, I got tired of reading page after page of them making out. The romance was really steamy in this one, a whole slew of descriptive make-out scenes along with one sex scene. I was really getting tired of hearing about Dameons rock-hard abs and great body. It’s book three, I’m pretty sure we all know what he looks like at this point and the fact that he’s hot! I don’t need Katy to go over these points every time he enters a room!The story was pretty slow going. There was a little action at the beginning followed by a lot of training and build up for the big action scene at the end. And to make matters worse, that scene it had been building up to for 366 pages cuts off during the most intense moment of the book. Bam. Gone. Nothing. I cannot even believe it ended where it did. Probably one of the worst cliffhangers I’ve ever read! I was one Miss Cranky Pants that night, that’s for sure.I loved getting to learn more about Dawson in this one. I wasn’t sure how I felt about him at first since he hardly ever talks, but he really started to grow on me by the end. I discovered that there’s a short story called “Shadows” that is all about Dawson and Beth before all the crap hit the fan. Hopefully that will give us a better look at what’s going on inside that brain of his ;) I’ll definitely be reading it sometime during my three-month wait for book number four!

    Okay, so even though I was prepared for a cliffhanger ending, I still wasn't truly prepared for the torture the author is putting us through. I will admit to not being a fan of cliffhangers as a rule and have even been known to avoid them all together, but I make allowances for series I find especially good and this is one of them.

    I liked this book quite a bit. We are seeing a lot of character growth for Daemon. I would love to see more from Kat, but she did avoid some of her major mistakes from the previous book this time around. I find Dee and Dawson wonderfully fascinating and would be thrilled to see novellas focusing on their storylines in the future.

    There were a few nitpicky things for me toward the end of the book involving the opal that Daemon gives to Kat. He puts it on a necklace for her and then there is some mention of it being in her pocket when they were going into the facility, then it was on her neck again when Blake managed to snatch it.

    Other than that this was a really great addition to the series and I'm epically impatient for the next book.

    I usually don't review this author's books as they usually heap a truck load of conflicitions on me due to similarities to other books I loved.

    That said, I still love her books because Armentrout knows how to engage you completely in her writing...

    Sadly there's a but, I had trouble gettng into the story with Opal. The chemistry and banter between Daemon and Katy is awesome and I enjoy it very much but I just can't help the feeling that this was the weakest book of the series so far.

    I was glad for the reunion with Dawson, although he was a lot creepier than the first time around but he's had his reasons.

    Other than that, it was crystal clear what was going to happen. The end was utterly transparent for me and I, more often than not, hate that so much in a book. So turning the last page all I could come up with was: "Well, duh." and that's not how the end of a book should make you feel.

    I know many of my GR friends don't agree and I'm glad that you guys loved it but for me this was an average read that just kept me reading because I wanted prove myself right.

    I was so excited to read this book! So damn excited! I LOVE Daemon! I LOVE Katy! I LOVE their banter! I LOVE this series! I LOVE every damn character and I would gladly gobble up ANYTHING Ms Armentrout would give me. My disappointment with this book does not change the fact that I am a fan of Jennifer's writing. But I still couldn't like this book.

    THIS BOOK WAS SO DAMN PREDICTABLE!

    AND CHEESY!


    ... and those are the two characteristics I CANNOT tolerate in a book. Each time Katy or Daemon opened their mouths to say something sweet and romantic to each other, or act sweet and romantic around each other, or talked about sweet and romantic stuffs between them to others(this was mostly Katy because we aren't in Daemon's head... yet) I was rolling my eyes. In short, you can say I was doing a lot of eye rolling during this book.

    And without any spoilers about the cliffhanger ending (which I oh-so-saw-coming) it didn't torture me as much as it should. That was definitely a bad sign. Also I felt bored (*gasp*) while reading the book and even Daemon's hotness and Katy's sarcasm couldn't hold my interest. I read both the Lux Novels, the Novella and every Extra from Daemon's PoV in a single sitting - without even blinking my eyes. And it took me entirety of TWO days.. with putting the book down every few pages and thinking what is wrong with me for not being to get into this book I was oh-so-excited about!

    The fault's with me I guess. I love fight and tragic separations more than romantic kissy scenes. On that note I hope I will like the next installment better *winks*

    After a bit of back and both I'd have to say 2 Stars.

    Review coming soon; just wanted to get a "wow" in here right now!

    Update 1/20/13: I am way behind on my reviews, so it doesn't look like I'll be getting a formal one up for Opal. I did want to say, however, that the "wow" definitely applies and I enjoyed this installment a LOT more than Onyx. The ending was absolutely crazy and left me screaming several bad words since book four isn't due until later this year! Exciting, action-packed, twists/turns, betrayals, romance...and Daemon Black. Incredible.

    For reals? December 2012? Now, that's awesome. Just few more months. Please don't let the RD be moved. >_<

    12.04.12 (in my time) UPDATE: Dammit! They released it early!!! Weeee! :) LMAO. I'm gonna read it next after Wallbanger! :)

    JUST. WHAT. THE. HELL. WHY DID I EVER READ THIS SERIES?! I blame you, Katy! >:(

    I don't even know what to say! As soon as I read that last line, I plugged in my laptop and while it was booting up, I was busy pacing around my bedroom. I was so frustrated that I need to exhaust myself or something. I then reached for my phone and opened my email to compose one for Katy. I ranted to her as much as I was ranting right now.

    First of all it started off a bit sad. With Dawson being not Dawson... You get the point? Well anyway, I still laugh, smirk, and love jerk Daemon but as many pointed out, he is not that much of a douche in Opal. He is so wise that it is surprising. I mean, he got lots of answers for Katy's questions and not the sarcastic answers or smart-ass one. But answers that have really real meaning.

    Second, we all know what happened to Adam at Onyx... So there's a strain in Dee and Katy's relationship. I was really sad about that and I kept thinking they would never be together again. They would never mend their broken friendship... Sorry is not enough...

    And I really hate Buff, I mean Biff, I mean Blake now. >:( How could he... They should've fried him on book two. They shouldn't let him go. Just kill that damn guy! >:(

    Then then.. then... I can't tell you without spoiling it! I don't know how. :( Just... It was so frustrating to end like that. Ugh. I don't know how will I say it anymore.

    AND BTW, that SEX scene? I didn't even notice they were doing it. Just when they already finished. The make-out scenes from the first book was much hotter than the sex scene. How in the world that that happen, I don't know but that's what I felt about it.

    I am so done with ranting. I need to cool off.

    BTW, It's a total CLIFFHANGER ENDING THAT I JUST WANT TO SLAP THEM IN THE FACE. LOL. But yes, I did get teary eyed cause of what Daemon said before it ends!

    4.5 STARS!!

    OH MY FUCKING GOD. I don't even have words. The ending left me speechless! Believe me people after reading the book you'll feel like ripping out your heads! It was a complete *Torture You* cliffhanger!

    I've already read the book like 10 times! Imagined 100 different scenarios which could happen! And to wait for the next book till next year?!?!!?

    This is the ULTIMATE torture! I haven't read such a mind shattering cliffhanger since 'The Goddess Interrupted' !! Ugh. The ending is killing Me.

    Anyway back to the story, so Opal is basically about how Daemon and Katy try to save Beth along with Chris! That name sound familiar?? Yeah....Blake is back guys!

    Well, I won't reveal much coz then it'll spoil all the fun! However this book does have alot of Daemon and Katy moments! I fell in love with Daemon all over again. *Sigh* Their chemistry is awesome like always! Lot more romance! Dawson's cool too but well, nothing compared to Daemon! And what to say about the ending.

    I can't help but scream when I read it! Gohd, I wish I'd die. Better than sulking around and going crazy for the next book!

    Concluding :

    Uber hot, smart-ass guy like Daemon Gorgeous but can-kick-your-ass heroine like Kat Amazing *MELT YOUR HEART* romance Awesome plot & a Heart-wrenching ending --> Gives you an "EPIC" !!

    Don't waste time guys, buy it, read it and well yeah, beat yourself up over the ending! Jennifer Armentrout will leave you craving for more with this book!

    P.S What Daemon says just before the ending will get you even more sad..:(

    This novel was more romance-centric than the previous two. I feel that a romance like this can only carry a series so far and there has to be more story beyond that in order to keep my interest. The story on the Lux / Arum did not progress very far, and took a backseat to Daemon and Katy. I wanted more on the aliens! It will probably please a lot of Daemon / Katy fans, and teenagers, but it's just not really my cup of tea.

    Oh my! *fans herself* Such a cliffhanger. Gosh! It's mean. Seriously mean!!!

    I so did not expect to love Opal more than Obsidian and Onyx. But I did. And it had nothing to do with the hot scenes, though I won't lie, I liked them too.

    But let me say that the way the story develops is breath-taking. We get to see all sorts of different qualities and sides of all the characters. Where Daemon was mostly a jerk in the previous books, here he's grown into an overprotective boyfriend. He's also understanding, loving, romantic and adorable. I believe it's safe to say I want one of him for myself ;)

    Then Katy goes a long way from being defenseless to being a kick butt heroine. I loved how well she was developed. I only didn't like how she hid things from Daemon... very important things I might add. And of course she hid things from her mom.

    Dawson was slowly returning to himself, not that we know what he was like before, but still.

    I hated how Dee had to be all alone without Alex. *Sigh*

    I just don't know why everyone just goes ahead and trusts the wrong guy time and time again. Seriously, it gets old. I mean, how stupid do you have to be to put your faith in the one person whom YOU KNOW you CAN'T trust? Is it really that difficult to be suspicious? So many things could have been avoided...

    Anyway, the cliffhanger is a killer. I want more. And when I say more, I mean MORE!!!! You get my meaning. ;)

    2.5 star reviewDue to copy and paste, formatting has been lost.You remember how I said that I was devouring this series? I was. I was really enjoying it, averaging a book a day - until I got to this one. For whatever reason, I just read this one so much slower - and I didn't like this one as much as the others in the series.Now that Daemon has Katy, obviously the angst is gone - and that's a nice thing. I kind of thought that we would see more of them as a couple in this one - and while that did happen, the moments were just too few and far between for my taste.And don't get me started on the introduction of a new character - Dawson was... interesting, I guess. I wanted to like him, I really did. But I feel like as a character, Dawson didn't really get the development that I hope for in all characters. As in all of these books, development of Daemon won out in the end. That's where my problems truly start - I think that the other characters should get better personalities too! I WANT MORE CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT.And in other news, DAWSON IS CREEPY. I want to like the boy, because he's related to Daemon... but I just find him creepy. I don't even know why I do, but... he is. So many things happen that make me sort of doubt the boy, but I guess I'll have to keep reading to find out... and I'm not so sure that I want to do that anymore.I feel like the longer this series goes on, the less unique the plot becomes. It just seems like it's dragging butt now, so I can't imagine what it'll be like with a few more books! The ending wasn't even surprising at this point.All in all, Opal disappointed me. It wasn't as good as the first two books in the series, and I don't really know if I'll continue reading it now.

    **3.5**

    The third book in this series may be my favorite of them so far. In this one Katy and Daemon are finally officially together and we get to see the sweet side of Daemon Black. And boy, what a sweet side it is. Even though he has yet to tell Katy that he loves her, it is obvious in everything he does for her. He is still arrogant and conceited, but its now tempered with an unbelievable sweetness with Katy. He is thoughtful, overwhelmingly protective, considerate, even affectionate. This was a Daemon I could get on board with! I loved seeing how their relationship had finally gotten to this place. There were still insecurities between them, but they had come a long way and finally were able to enjoy being together.

    Spoiler alert

    Anyway, this book picks up right where the second one left off, with the return of Dawson, who immediately wants to rescue Bethany from DOD. With the added return of Blake, who blackmails them for help rescuing Chris, the plot of this book focuses on their rescue mission.

    As the synopsis of Origin will already tell you, at the end of the book Katy is captured by DOD during the rescue mission. This definitely is the biggest cliffhanger yet of the series and, for yet another cliffhanger, I had to knock off another half a star. If it hadn't ended on such an upsetting note, it would have been a full four.

    Katy is right "brutal cliffhangers suck". Why couldn't it end with a sweet cheery cliffhanger, uh? Okay fine it's not a HEA novel but I was so hoping for a not so heart-wrenching end.

    Anyways, Opal was not as high-octane as the previous books but it was still a great read. As usual, Armentrout's is such a great storyteller she could probably write about stamp collecting and I would love it. This was more focused on Katy and Daemon's growing relationship and Dawson being back. It's hard to believe that a guy considered a jerk and a bully could be such a sweetheart and a romantic, of course Daemon wouldn't be too happy if that gets out, he does have a reputation to uphold.

    Opal might not have the intensity the other books had for me but I see it as more of a sweet love story. There was definitely some action and drama but it was spread throughout the story. Can't wait for the next one.

    Okay, so after a little work Ive read Opal. Maybe its just the 16 hour daily shifts, the need to move YET again three weeks after just moving and dying from a god awful virus, but I just wasn't feeling it this time.

    Katy and Daemon are helping Dawson get Beth back. The must break into DOD's headquarters to get Beth. Begin tale.

    Katy and Daemon bored me. I think perhaps the series is done for me because all their endearing moments just kind of didn't do it for me. I think I should have read the last look just to re-hype myself on the Katy and Daemon train. I just wasn't feeling it.

    The action scenes were short. We need more action like the initial days of Lux. And more focus on the LUX species and less on Katy and Daemon's rather yawn worthy sex life (Really, she kills Will and then sleeps with Daemon, worst reason ever).

    Hating on book pirates randomly made me roll my eyes.


    It was nice to see all the old characters again, and the cliffhanger ending will of course bring me back for one more book. I don't think I can do much more though unless there is a major upheaval somewhere in the storyline. Cant wait to see how Daemon saves Katy - but also curious how Jennifer will write about that since we have never done Daemon's side of things. Either way, for a series losing its steam so quickly I can see this being salvageable with a little more "Luxianism" and a little less romanticism. Sure this is YA Paranormal Romance - and maybe I'm getting bored of the genre, but I want more details on the Lux race!

    I have a hard time clearly defining my feeling for this series. It's very up and down. I liked this installment of the Lux series but I didn't love it. It was very easy to put down and even occasionally pick up another book that I'm in the middle of reading in favor of Opal. Despite this novel having a cliffhanger ending, I don't feel that compelled to pick up Origin...yet. I'll definitely finish the series and read Shadows too, but I think I'll finish the other two books I'm reading right now first.

    3.5/5 Stars

    I don’t know why it took me so long to read this book. I’ve read the first two in the series in the beginning of the summer and really enjoyed them. But I finally got to this one and it did not disappoint. The majority of this book was the preparation for the showdown and the saving of Beth and Chris. Katy, Daemon, and the other Luxen were all preparing for breaking the others out.

    First off let me just say how much I hate both Will and Blake. I know they are the antagonists and part of the DOD problem. But they are just horrible individuals who ruin everyone’s happiness. And throughout this whole book, I wanted my gut feeling about Blake to be wrong. It bothered me that they had this sort of truce with him about breaking into the DOD facility.

    Daemon and Katy are so perfect with each other. I absolutely love their interactions. I love that Katy is still a strong, independent character. She does not need Daemon to save her. While he is overly protective of her, he still respects her wishes and still lets her make her own decisions about helping them. I really appreciate how they respect and work with each other, it is refreshing to other novels.

    Overall, I really enjoyed this 3rd book and with that ending, I really cannot wait to read Origin. I must know what happens to Katy and how everyone deals with the aftermath of this book.

    Dawson is back but he isn't the same. Dee is devastated over Adam's death. Dee and Katy's friendship is broken. Katy and Daemon are finally together but with enemies old and new coming at them from all sides will they or their friends and family ever be the same again.Poor Daemon and Dee to get their brother back but only a shell of his old self must be devastating. Plus Dee dealing with Adam's death. Just when they are happy together and he gets killed by that SOB Blake. Poor Katy.She can't tell her mom about Will. Which I didn't see coming as one of the bad guys. It was a big shock to me last book. I loved Dawson and missed the old Dee. Dawson's love for Beth is beautiful. Both brothers love with everything they have.Daemon and Katy's relationship seems to be maturing and it's great seeing them together. They go though real relationship struggles like jealousy issues and overprotective issues along with all the alien issues. Katy and Daemon's sexual chemistry is still off the charts hot. If you weren't in love with Daemon after the first two books you will be while reading this book. I love his character more and more. That scene after Prom was magical and romantic.Watching Katy process not being the same girl after all she went though was understandable and very real. You meet an another hybrid named Luc and I wonder what future role he is going to play. This book grabbed me from the start and I had so much trouble putting it down. HOLY COWS that Cliffhanger ending. Thank God I waited for all the books to come out before I started this series.Rating: 5 out of 5Content Rating: PG-13 but recommend for older YA readersKeeper: YES!

    I was truly disappointed in all the juvenile behaviour, teen drama, exceedingly poor attempts at humor and unexciting events. The ending made up for some of that, though. Way to leave a reader on a cliffhanger like that! Alright, this may have been a little too harsh; it is, after all, a YA book, therefore juvenile behaviour and teen drama are expected. There were definitely some things that were likable, and even lovable. Kat & Daemon's relationship, for example. If in the previous book I did not feel any real chemistry between them, than this book completely made up for that. I like how their relationship was constantly growing and evolving. Plus, Daemon saying that three-letter-word to Kat at the end was incredibly touching. And words I'll come back for you made my heart skip a beat.

    Oh Daemon… swoon picturing the romantic things you would do to me.. I mean for me.

    On to how I feel about this beloved book. I was excited the day Opal came out, but I did not jump to buy it because I knew that I would read it in a matter of hours, and once I was done I would not be satisfied again for a very long while. I put it off as long as I had it in me, which was not long at all.

    I was not disappointed from the first page to the last. You know that it was going to be the cliffhanger of a lifetime towards the end because Armentrout pretty much tells us while Katy is thinking. Although I am now wishing I savored instead of devoured this book I am altogether happy..ish

    I like how it starts off pretty much where the last one lets off and you get glimpses of past senses you may have forgotten about in the earlier books. Katy is more feisty than before and has more confidence in herself, we feel Dee’s pain and wish ASh would just go away or play nice all the time. Blake, well we just want him to go away but he is always there and creepier then ever. Daemon has a sweet romantic side that we just can’t get enough of and when him and Katy are together is just lights the room up. No bun intended. While we get to see new sides of characters we love we also get to meet new folks we can’t wait to learn more about, like a 15 year old who acts like he is 30.

    At times I wished there was a little more action going on, but then I would turn the page there it would be waiting to surprise me. Speaking of surprises if you like them, this book is filled with them. I only gave the book four stars because as much as I love this series and all the characters I just felt that there should of been more to some of parts of the story or they could of been left out all together. or maybe I am just being spiteful because when I read the ending all I wanted to do was scream till I sounded like Katy while she was in her Onyx cage.


    If you have not read this series yet, you are missing out and I recommend you start now.
