OBSIDIAN (LUX 1) - JENNIFER L. ARMENTROUT
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 mojo fades.
If I don't kill him first, that is.

okay, so i'm just going to say that this is a book that i can most definitely add to my favourite books of all time . i loved this book and the characters in it.
i must admit that at first i thought it was a bit hyped up but man was that not true, this book encompasses many things and while i'm not going to give spoilers because why ruin it? go girl power!
i have to say when i picked up this books i was a bit like aliens? WTF? but the way Jennifer has presented the Luxen is amazing and refreshing.
this review is going to be short because i honestly don't think anything i can say will do it justice
the characters are amazing and realistic (and there definitely isnt any of that love at first sight) well as realistic as aliens can be. in all honesty i just think you should pick up this book and decide for yourself, but i think i might be a bias.
as my mother would say dont like it lump it.. no idea where lump it came from but yeah, i enjoyed the book very much and hope you will to. can't wait to read the rest of the series.. promise there will be more detailed reviews then ;)
