Jennifer L. Armentrout

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.

I've never finished almost 500 pages [romanian version] in 2 days. I simply couldn't let it down. Of course the sleeping hours were delayed :))) but I don't regret a second. I'm going to love this entire series.

4/5⭐️. Onyx picks up right where Obsidian left off. I definitely enjoyed this second installment. The angst and sexual tension continues between Katy & Daemon. I like Katy’s development and how she is flawed. Daemon has that devilish/jerk side, but I like that we are peeling back his layers to see the real Daemon underneath.

In book 2, Katy and Daemon are now linked through his alien powers. She has decided to try and resist him, but its hard. Now the Defense Department is in town and they know about him. To complicate matters, there is a new kid at school that appears to be keeping some kind of a secret. Can anyone be trusted?

Okay, okay, 
  what the heck
? This series is something new and thrilling every chapter, honestly, and it’s so addictive. I need to read more. I need more Daemon and Katy. I need more Daemon, basically.

There was a lot of betrayal in this book and I actually suspected most of it but it still took me by surprise when it happened because damn, Armentrout, you have me on edge! What’s going to happen? Blake? Will? DB? WHATTHEHECK?

One thing I was for sure of for majority of this book… Katy freaking annoyed me. She just frustrated me every chapter and I wanted to wring her neck! Daemon was stepping forward and she was being a bit of a… what’s the word… snob? I have another word in mind but I honestly love Katy despite how frustrated she made me the first half, and I’m glad she finally came to her senses near the end. ABOUT DAMN TIME!

I’m going to start Opal tomorrow after a good rest and hopefully recover from that helluva twist!

I hated Kat the whole time. She was so annoying and bad things happened because she did whatever the hell she wanted. Although, I'm not on Daemon's side, it pissed me off the fact that Kat was like "yes, I do the things that I want bc I'm me and I don't care"

I rated Obsidian with 5 stars, and I regret about it. What the hell was I thinking??? Daemon is annoying too and he believes he's right 99.9% of the time, and the 0.01% he's mad trying to prove Kat she's wrong too.

I don't actually understand why authors try to makes us believe that usually the guy is right and the girl no, and that drives me really insane. :/

STOP WHINING, PLEASE

Kudos to Jennifer L. Armentrout dedicating Onyx to book lovers and book bloggers. I love reading authors dedications and acknowledgements. Jennifer thanked book lovers and bloggers. She also gives thanks to Liz Pelletier, the editor behind the Lux series. Thanking her, because she is the one who demanded that Jennifer put more Daemon into Onyx. Thank you. Thank You. Thank you to Liz for demanding more Daemon in Onyx. 

I loved Obsidian, but Jennifer L. Armentrout out did her self with Onyx. Onyx has distrust, betrayal, sadness, happiness, edge of your seat action, jealousy, a lot of surprises, and it is more steamy.

Things between Daemon and Katy are a bit different. She has strong feelings for Daemon as he does for her. But she does not know if his feelings for her are real, because of the way he treated her badly when they first met and then he saved her in Obsidian and now she does not know if it is the connection between them that he is feeling or is it his true feelings. Now there is a new kid, Blake in school and is paying attention to Katy. She wants to put all the alien mojo behind her as much as she can and wants to be normal and date a normal guy. But things are not what they all seemed to be.

Daemon is still just Daemon. I loved how he finds out all Katy wants is to be wooed liked a normal girl. He definitely woos her and of course he loves a challenge. He makes it his mission to show her his feelings for her are real and not because of the connection they have now. You definetly see a jealous and over protective side of him when Blake starts paying attention to Katy.

There are tons of fun, cute and steamy scenes that are highlighted worthy. Daemon does and I mean does make it his mission to woo Katy. Loved how he brought her a rose too school...*Sigh*. Of course loving the Reindeer Sock and book video scene. All the scenes with Blake are definitely fun. Daemon is still the smartass and even funnier when jealous. Oh boy Daemon knows how to kick ass when any harm is done to Katy. Loved how he would never call him Blake, every other name that starts with a *B* but not Blake. In Obsidian I loved how he was always poking Katy in the back with his pen in class, yeah still got some of those adorable scenes. 

I was missing Dee and her friendship with Katy. I love Dee’s character but she is not in as much as in Obsidian. 

Enjoyed how Onyx is showing more and more on The DOD and Arums. They are creepier and just evil. 

Towards the end is intense and a nail biter. Things happen that I was not sure if ever can be fixed. At one point I was afraid to turn my kindle. I was not sure if it was going to end a cliffhanger, but to my surprise the story kept going and got to see a different side of Daemon. Daemon is still swoon worthy and more in Onyx. 

I love good cliffhangers but did not get it in Onyx and I was fine with that because Jennifer L. Armentrout has a way of ending her novels that you still want more now. Kudos to Jennifer for not making us wait a year for Opal (Lux #3). Still have to wait till December but hey I will take that than like some authors who can take up to a year before the next in a series is released. I look forward to see where Jennifer takes us in Opal. The Lux series is a keeper for me as one day would love to read it from the beginning and back to back. 

If you have not read Shadow yet it is a must to really get a better feel on Onyx. There are things that happen in Onyx that will be so much better if read Shadow before it. In my opinion I would read Obsidian, Shadows then Onyx. Save a day of just reading when read Onyx. It is hard to put down and you will forget everything and everyone.

I have to warn you guys that Onyx is just dripping with sexual tension. The whole book is basically just hot hot hotness between Daemon and Katy. Considering Katy doesn't particularly like Daemon, she has to stay close since she's lit up like the friggan Eiffel Tower. Imagine Daemon being Daemon, having to be close and around Katy all the time; at school, at home, in-between those two etc. That's how this book was, hot and sexy with a tad bit of danger. Onto the danger part, the DOD are here and there slyly checking out Daemon and his family making sure nothings out of the ordinary, of course that's when they notice a human is suspiciously close to them. Then that brings us to the big mystery of what the hell happened to Dawson, Daemon's twin brother that went missing with his human love, Beth. It's a sad and emotional ride from there on. 

This brings us to Blake. The new kid. The HOT new kid. Oh yeah, Daemon does not like him at all, considering Blake is all over Katy. Not that Katy is minding ya know ;) Little did we know that Blake has almost all the answers about the Arum, DOD and how to control what's happening to Katy. I REPEAT, Daemon does not like that. Can we just jump subjects and also mention that Katy is book blogger! How cool is that, I loved that little tidbit and Armentrout even writes us scenes when she's making book review videos, and opening book boxes for hauls. SO COOL. Of course, Daemon being Daemon even makes an appearance in one of her videos. Everything in this book is pretty light and fluffy, which should've been a Number 1 warning. SO you can imagine when I say that I didn't expect it to get as serious as it did! 

Something happens that is just a slap to the face, and makes you want to cry and scream out in frustrating!! I was so angry that I just wanted to get in there and kill everyone myself. UGH. This series really does pull you in and make you want more and more. Go read it, then come back and we can talk about a murder plan.
