Book Review: Obsidian (Lux, #1) by Jennifer L. Armentrout

Obsidian (Lux, #1) by Jennifer L. Armentrout YA sci-fi/romance Paperback/eBook, 400 pages Publisher: Entangled Teen Release Date: May 8, 2012 Starting over sucks. When we moved to West Virginia right before my senior year, I'd pretty much resigned myself to thick accents, dodgy internet access, and a whole lot of boring... until I spotted my hot neighbor, with his looming height and eerie green eyes. Things were looking up. And then he opened his mouth. Daemon is infuriating. Arrogant. Stab-worthy. We do not get along. At all. But when a stranger attacks me and Daemon literally freezes time with a wave of his hand, well, something... unexpected happens.  The hot alien living next door marks me. You heard me. Alien. Turns out Daemon and his sister have a galaxy of enemies wanting to steal their abilities, and Daemon's touch has me lit up like the Vegas Strip. The only way I'm getting out of this alive is by sticking close to Daemon until my alien m

Marked by Midnight (Midnight Breed #11.5) by Lara Adrian Paranormal romance ebook, 125 pages Published June 28th 2014 by Lara Adrian, LLC Determined to solve a string of brutal slayings in London, vampire warrior Mathias Rowan is forced to seek the help of Nova, a fiery tattoo artist who ignites an unexpected, yet undeniable, passion in the grim Order enforcer. Nova’s shadowy connections and dark talents may be Mathias’s best hope of unmasking a treacherous enemy . . . but falling for a woman with her dangerous past will risk both their hearts and their lives. I'm a huge fan of the Midnight Breed series and always wonder why the author gives us an occasional short story. Is it to fill the void between novels? Whatever the reason, I treat them as appetizers. Marked by Midnight felt like a snack, even if it was satisfying, well written, and the romance HOT, it kept me wanting more .  Mathias is an admirable Breed warrior, helping out a friend who works for JUS

Don't Look Back by Jennifer L. Armentrout YA mystery/thriller/romance ebook, 384 pages Published April 15th 2014 by Disney Hyperion (first published April 10th 2014)  Samantha is a stranger in her own life. Until the night she disappeared with her best friend, Cassie, everyone said Sam had it all-popularity, wealth, and a dream boyfriend. Sam has resurfaced, but she has no recollection of who she was or what happened to her that night. As she tries to piece together her life from before, she realizes it's one she no longer wants any part of. The old Sam took "mean girl" to a whole new level, and it's clear she and Cassie were more like best enemies. Sam is pretty sure that losing her memories is like winning the lottery. She's getting a second chance at being a better daughter, sister, and friend, and she's falling hard for Carson Ortiz, a boy who has always looked out for her-even if the old Sam treated him like trash. But Cassie is still missing, and
