Title: Onyx
Author: Jennifer L. Armentrout
Series: A Lux Novel
Format: Kindle
Publisher: Entangled Teen
Published: 14th August 2012
Goodreads

Being connected to Daemon Black sucks…
Thanks to his alien mojo, Daemon’s determined to prove what he feels for me is more than a product of our bizarro connection. So I’ve sworn him off, even though he’s running more hot than cold these days. But we’ve got bigger problems.

Something worse than the Arum has come to town…

The Department of Defense are here. If they ever find out what Daemon can do and that we’re linked, I’m a goner. So is he. And there’s this new boy in school who’s got a secret of his own. He knows what’s happened to me and he can help, but to do so, I have to lie to Daemon and stay away from him. Like that’s possible. Against all common sense, I’m falling for Daemon. Hard.

But then everything changes…

I’ve seen someone who shouldn’t be alive. And I have to tell Daemon, even though I know he’s never going to stop searching until he gets the truth. What happened to his brother? Who betrayed him? And what does the DOD want from them—from me?

No one is who they seem. And not everyone will survive the lies…

Oh how i love this series!

If you love YA novels you must read the Lux series. Onyx is the second in the series and has a little more action in it compared to Obsidian.

Armentrout’s writing is addictive, clever and fun! The worlds she creates and her characters are full of wit and charm. You can’t help but fall in love with them.

Onyx had me laughing one minute and in tears the next. It has a roller coaster of emotions that i really wasn’t prepared for.

A lot of the question or assumptions we had in the first book have been answered and a few more twist have surfaced. We get to meet a new character thats stirs up the ‘will they won’t they’ relationship between Katy and Daemon.

There is also a heartbreaking event that i am still not happy about! And i was starting to get annoyed at Katy’s ‘Daemon doesn’t like me’ attitude but in the end i was dying to read the next book Opal.

Opal book three is out 11th December.

5 Stars: Amazing! I loved it and could not put it down. I highly recommend it.

Happy TGIF everyone 🙂

It is that time of week again.

TGIF is a weekly meme hosted by GReads. This weeks question is:

– Christmas in July: If Santa were to come down your chimney in the middle of summer, which books would you want him to leave for you under the tree?

I picked –

Oynx, because I am dying inside waiting for it and there is nothing better in summer than hot, sexy aliens!

And

The Alchemyst (Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel), because it has been on my to-read list for way to long 🙂
