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. :)

March-May Wrap Up!

 Happy Tuesday!  So I had a March/April blog post all written out and forgot to post it! So here's a March-May recap! How has the last three months gone for you? March ended up being a really good month. I turned 25 and had a really great birthday I got to hang out with friends, watch some new shows and am almost done with the Throne of Glass series. April and May have also been really good months for me. God's blessed me in so many amazing ways over the past three months.  I feel bad that this blog has fallen so to the wayside for me. I used to post every week and be so excited and now I just really struggle to keep this updated. I'm starting to think it might be time to let this blog post unless I somehow get renewed motivation/inspiration for it.  March-May Writing:  March was a very good writing month. I just reached 65K in Immortal Circus #3, and despite a few small hiccups, it's been flowing really well. I'm enjoying getting to draft a book after spending ...

Turning 25!

 Happy Thursday!  At the end of February I was looking back at my wrap ups on my Instagram and on here and it almost made me start crying because of how far I've come. It made me stop and think about where I started my 20's versus where I am now. So much as changed and so much of it for the better. Just looking back at the pictures and wrap ups I've done over the past year, I feel like I'm thriving. I'm at a place I honestly didn't think I'd ever get to and maybe that was just me being dramatic or living in on and off depression for so many years, but it makes me tear up and so thankful to see how far I've come since 20.  At 20 I had a best friend I thought I would still be best friends with when I turned 25. I had him and two other friends at 20 and that was it. I don't even remember what church we were at five years ago, but it wasn't the church we're at now and I know I definitely was not thriving there. I felt so behind everyone else my a...

A Goodbye to The Archive Series

Happy Friday!  The final book of The Archive Series comes out next Tuesday. This has been almost three years in the making and I don't know what to say to properly say goodbye.  I started this series in December 2019 with Golden Touch. The idea had been sparked by me watching The Road to El Dorado and having a desire to write a treasure hunt story for most of December. Little did I know that the story of a girl finding a boy with a Midas touch up in the mountains to help her family with their money issues would turn into a five book series and be a huge part of my life for the next few years. I also had no idea that that series would get me through one of the hardest years - 2020. Honestly, God knew what 2020 would be like and He knew I was going to need a story and characters that would make me happy, give me joy and focus on during that very hard year. And for me, that was Amaya and Darren and this whole series.  I poured a lot of myself and my story into Amaya and Darr...
