December 18, 2012

Title: Opal (lux #3)

Author: Jennifer L Armentrout

Summary:

When he set out to prove his feelings for me, he wasn’t fooling around. Doubting him isn’t something I’ll do again, and now that we’ve made it through the rough patches, well... There’s a lot of spontaneous combustion going on.

But even he can’t protect his family from the danger of trying to free those they love.

After everything, I’m no longer the same Katy. I’m different... And I’m not sure what that will mean in the end. When each step we take in discovering the truth puts us in the path of the secret organization responsible for torturing and testing hybrids, the more I realize there is no end to what I’m capable of. The death of someone close still lingers, help comes from the most unlikely source, and friends will become the deadliest of enemies, but we won’t turn back. Even if the outcome will shatter our worlds forever.

Together we’re stronger... and they know it

Review:

(spoilers for the first 2 books!)

Holy cow!! So… This book was AMAZING, of course! But Im gonna warn you right now, like all of her books, there is a KILLER cliffhanger at the end!

So, the story follows Katy, Daemon, and the crew as they figure out what to do now that Dawson is back. He isn’t the same though, and all he wants to do is find Beth. BUT they have to trust someone who is totally untrustworthy in order to even try to do anything.

There are some crazy ups and downs though. MAJOR pro: the romance between Katy and Daemon is JUST as awesome as ever!! LOVED it! Loved everything about it.

The plot was great, and flowed smoothly. There were no downtimes. You went from one scene to the next seamlessly!

All the characters are still there, even some you weren’t sure would show up…

Katy really has changed from the first book to this one. She really grew as a character, and though she may not like the changes, I do! She is one total bad ass heroine now!

ONLY downside to this book: the freaking ending is SUCH a killer cliffhanger! I mean, it’s a brutally epic cliffhanger! UGH

Rating: still 5 stars even though I HATE cliffhangers like this!
