The Lux Series Part One by Jennifer L. Armentrout

Sorry I'm not sure why but I've tried posting this book like two times already but it isn't showing up so here is what Obsidian by Jennifer L. Armentrout:

12578077

When Katy moved to West Virginia she thought all she was getting was a whole lot of boring... that was up until she met her next door neighbor,  Daemon Black. He was gorgeous... up until he opened his mouth. He was  arrogant and infuriating. They don't get along until he saves Katy's life by freezing a truck in place. And that is when all the secrets come out. Daemon, and his sister Dee, are actually aliens and they have enemies on Earth that would do anything to get to them.

Now before you go, find that book, and start reading, stop for a moment and think about what I have to say. I was a sucker, read that,  and flipped it open diving right in head first. Not such a good idea. Like I've said before,  I can easily deceived by some books. Some of them just sound so good, they have great covers, their plots are awesome, and everything seems perfect with them. Now before I say this,  I know now that I was so wrong to let myself get sucked into this series and I was wrong to keep reading it. I should have shut the book and sent it back to the library when I saw the first swear word. But I didn't. Don't get me wrong. The dialogue is awesome (to me at least) the plot wanted to make you just keep going and going and the characters were incredible. Just that... I could have done without all the swearing. I got to the third before I couldn't take it anymore and this is why I split this post into three parts. This part is about Obsidian. The swearing, and few... heated kissing scenes aside it was a great book. I seriously loved Daemon's witty dialogue and his perky smiley sister. Now let me just get this out of the way. I am not an alien person. Don't believe in them, don't read about them. But Daemon was just so likable or more like unlikable that I was willing to look over the whole alien thing. Plus their powers are pretty cool. The whole dynamic was interesting, though for some reason it reminded me a bit of Twilight. Especially, how Katy wasn't scared of Daemon and didn't back away from him when he said he was danger. It sounded like Edward and Bella. I don't recommend this book to anyone. But if you wanted to take your chances with it, I would say sixteen and older... maybe even seventeen and older,  if only for all the swearing and kissing scenes. So  just be careful and use caution with this book. :)

Cover Reveal: Golden Touch!!

 Happy Tuesday!!  Today's the day! I turn 23 and I couldn't think of a better way to celebrate than to share the cover for Golden Touch! I think this is by far my favorite cover my mom has ever done. It's crazy to think that this time last year Golden Touch was still just a first draft and I was in the middle of writing book 2 of the series. A defining part of my twenty-second year will always be having revised Golden Touch and written almost the entire Archive Series. And now I get to open up my twenty-third year with sharing the cover and writing book the first draft of book 5, the very last book in the series. God is so good guys. I really think He gave me Golden Touch and this whole series a few months before the events of 2020 started. He gave me a story I could get lost in, I could find joy in even during some of the hardest times of the year. And now I get to share the cover and I get to close out the series and I just pray and hope that God will use Golden Touch and...

How to Write A Survivalist Character During The Apocalypse

Hello friends! It's been a while... The last two weeks have been kind of nuts. The entire world is freaking out, everything's been turned upside down. Last week was rough... I had wanted to write out a birthday blog post and do something special on here for turning 22, but then everything happened and I was too stressed and I forgot to write anything, so that's kind of a bummer. I guess I could do it this week, but I feel like something else is needed for this week. I was thinking I should write some meaningful, hope-filled blog post. Write about what's going on in the world... but then I realized, everyone is already doing that. Social media is saturated with hope-filled positivity. And don't get me wrong, that's great! It's needed right now. To be honest though, Sunday night and into Monday I was getting pretty fed up with all the positivity. I think I was just overwhelmed and stressed, but I got pretty bitter and told my mom I was sick of hearing all th...

Five Tips for Getting in the Writing Mood

Happy June everyone!! I am both excited and a little anxious for this month... Excited because the twenty one pilots concert is at the end of the month and because my college class starts at the end of the month too (while also being a little anxious about it as well haha). Honestly, I don't know why I'm feeling a little off about this month... Maybe just cuz it feels like there's going to be a lot going on... I have an over the phone adviser meeting tomorrow and am helping at my church's VBS from 8 to 3 Monday through Friday next week. It'll be good but it's still a little daunting to think about :o But anyways! There's been this weird trend going on right now in my life. Just in the past week I've watched several live videos and authortube videos and read blog posts (most all of them about pantsers or having to do with pantsers in some way) and they all have included, well, pantser stuff but also how to stay in a writing mood. No one has mentioned h...
