Opal By Jennifer L.Armentrout

It's been such a long time since I last posted but I was too busy with school.No that Christmas is finally almost here,I have more free time.So once I saw that Opal was to come out sooner than expected,I made sure to get my hands on one of the copies......


Opal  (Lux #3)

By Jennifer L. Armentrout

My rating: 5 of 5 stars




"Do you ever stop talking?"

"When I'm sleeping," Blake replied.

"And when you're dead," Daemon threw back. "You'll stop talking when you're dead."

Blake's lips thinned. "Point taken.” -Daemon and Blake


What has just happend???

I cannot believe that I have to wait until July to find out more...

Ok.Let's start from the beginning!!!

When I started reading Opal I was all happy and I was right to be so.Later I was more than trilled especially when reading Daemon and Kat scenes.As I neared the end,though,I felt something was sooooooo wrong.And It was.In the very last page........

Oh my God!After I finished the book I couldn't stop crying and to think that I'll have to wait until July to read Origin.I want to get my hands on an advanced copy right now.I just can't wait.I'm so sad and pissed and want to kill Blake right now.The IDIOT.I can't believe he did that to her....

What I actually loved(except from the whole book)was this particular scene(THE SCENE) between Daemn and Kat.I just adored them.They have progressed so much.I loooooooved Daemon.Especially his behaviour around Kat.He was funny,sweeet,protective(over-protective actually),he cared so much for her and ok let's face it there were times that I wanted to choke him.Kat,on the other hand,has matured and is dealing with some problems,one of which is her friends or the lack of it.Dee is no longer talking to her,while her other friends are slipping away,as well.

Dawson,oh Dawson!!!There were times that I felt sorry for him and there were others(one particular) that I could but blame him for the tragedy that came upon Kat.

And finally,Dee,who apparently stopped grieving and is now seeking revenge.There was even one scene that she punched Blake.Well done Dee!!!

Blake(who I hope he chokes) is the character that confused me the most.I can't say that I liked him,bearing in mind that he killed Adam,but I didn't disliked him either(that until I read the last chapter).In the beginning of the book I kind of pitied him,as everyone was against him.That changed though.Pity became like,like became anger and anger led to this dangerous feelings that I have for him.I still can't believe that he not only betrayed them but abandoned them as well.

Poor Daemon.Poor Kat.They only ones that actually did win something were Dawson and Beth,who finally found each other.I don't have the patience to wait to till July.I want to know now.

Opal is must read and must have for every shelf.I would just suggest that you don't read the book right away(as I did and now regret) but wait until mid June so as not to wait for Origin.And believe me,from where I stand It seems a long wait(not to mention that I ruined my Christmas).But If you are desperate to read it,go ahead.But keep in mind that the following book doesn't come out until JULY...

Blurb:

No one is like Daemon Black.

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.

Rogue Rider By Larissa Ione

Rogue Rider (Lords of Deliverance #4)

By Larissa Ione

My rating: 4 of 5 stars




“Oompa-Loompa Land?” He shook his head. “No way. Orange people give me the creeps. I don’t even like fake tans. I’d never be their king.”

― Reseph

Rogue Rider is the fourth book of Lords of Deliverance series.Finally we get to read Peseph's story which I definitelly enjoyed....
To begin with,Rogue Rider starts where Lethal Riderleft off.Reseph is suffering from amnesia when he's found by Jillian.Jillian takes him in her home and looks after him until he gets better.In the meanwhile,the others(Ares,Limos and Thanatos)are not aware that Reseph still lives.Imagine their surprise when Reaver tells them that he's not really dead.They begin searching for him,when after some info they get from Kynan,they find him and take him away from Jullian.That's when Reseph starts remembering the things Pestilence did.

I really liked this book and I'm so content that the series isn't ending.The attraction between Reseph and Jillian is instant.I loooooooveed the new Reseph ,though,I hated the old one and Pestilence.Did I mention that we get to see all three???

In this book we also learn more about the other Horsemen and how their lives have progressed.I'm not going to spoil anything.You should definitely read it.I'm just going to say that Limos's dream finally came true...Oh,there are also many "surprises" in Rogue Rider.

If you have read the previous books then you should absolutely read this one as well.It's an amazing book with an incredible ending that prepares us for the following book,Reaver's story...

Blurb:

The prophecies were there but no one listened. Until now. They are the Lords of Deliverance and they have the power to ward off Doomsday . . . or let it ride.

Jillian Cardiff came to this remote mountain town to forget the demon attack that almost killed her. Instead, she rescues - and falls for - a gorgeous stranger who has no memory of anything other than his name. Handsome, charming and protective, Reseph seems like the kind of man that Jillian can trust. But with hints of a troubling history of his own, he's also the kind of man that can be very dangerous . . .

Reseph may not know his background, or why he mysteriously appeared in Jillian's life, but he knows he wants to stay. Yet when Jillian's neighbours are killed and demon hunters arrive on the scene, Reseph fears that he's putting Jillian in danger. And once it's revealed that Reseph is also Pestilence, the Horseman responsible for ravaging the world with death and destruction, he and Jillian must face the greatest challenge of all: can they forget the horrors of a chilling past to save the future they both desire?

Poison Princess By Kresley Cole

Poison Princess  (The Arcana Chronicles #1)

By Kresley Cole

My rating: 5 of 5 stars






"Remember my titles? I don’t get poisoned, I do the poisoning. I’m the Princess of it." -Evie


I's been such a long time since I read a book by Kresley Cole.I thought that Immortals After Dark books were perfect but after reading this one I do not think words are enough to describe how I fell about it....

The story begins with our main character,Evie,trying to decide whether or not to get in an old man's home who lures her with food and warmth.Come again???Time for the background story:

The world has been destroyed by the sun's deathly rays,a phenomenon the survivors call Flash.Millions of people have died and those who survived are either dying or wish they had.You see when the Flash occured it destroyed everything.Food and water are scarce and people are killing each other in oredr to feed.

Back to our story,after being persuaded that this old man named Arthur is harmless,Evie goes into his house and shares her story before and after the Flash.That's how the book progresses and that is also how we learn the facts too.We learn how she and her mother survived the Flash and how her mother died later,how she and Jack met again after the Flash and how they much later found others in their age with extraordinary abilities like Evie's.

I loved this book so much.I knew I had been right when I decided to read this.One might say that the story is hard to follow but I promise you that once you begin reading it,you will not be able to put it down.It has a nice flow,solid main and secondary characters,many mysteries and lots of secters.Oh,did I mention that those who like solving puzzles will definitely love it???

I 1000% recommend this book to everyone......

Enjoy!!!!!!

Blurb:

She could save the world—or destroy it.
Sixteen year old Evangeline “Evie” Greene leads a charmed life, until she begins experiencing horrifying hallucinations. When an apocalyptic event decimates her Louisiana hometown, Evie realizes her hallucinations were actually visions of the future—and they’re still happening. Fighting for her life and desperate for answers, she must turn to her wrong-side-of-the-bayou classmate: Jack Deveaux.

But she can’t do either alone.
With his mile-long rap sheet, wicked grin, and bad attitude, Jack is like no boy Evie has ever known. Even though he once scorned her and everything she represented, he agrees to protect Evie on her quest. She knows she can’t totally depend on Jack. If he ever cast that wicked grin her way, could she possibly resist him?

Who can Evie trust?
As Jack and Evie race to find the source of her visions, they meet others who have gotten the same call. An ancient prophesy is being played out, and Evie is not the only one with special powers. A group of twenty-two teens has been chosen to reenact the ultimate battle between good and evil. But it’s not always clear who is on which side….

Empty Net By Toni Aleo

Empty Net  (Assassins #3)

By Toni Aleo

My rating: 3 of 5 stars






What can I say???

There were times that I really liked this book but there were other times that I couldn't take it anymore!So much drama...

I start with Tate because I adored him!Despite being young he is everything a woman can ever want.Sexy as hell,loyal and dedicated,funny but smart,young yet he his fully aware how hard and unfair life can be.I was totally impressed by him at some point and several long scenes.I also liked the fact that he didn't play hard to get.Really hate that type of men.

As long as Audrey is concerned I think that she was such a drama queen.Behaving childish and unable to stick to a decision.I think that she was so weak.Okay,I get it she had a problem so what???There are so many things that can be done nowadays for her situation that it shouldn't be considered a problem anymore.

Overall,I liked that I liked Trying to Score more than Empty Net but I have to admit that it was a nice book with many twists.I can't wait to read the next book in the series Blue Lines,which will be Piper and Eric's book(who I don't like much,you will understand if you read the book).I surely recommend the book to anyone who has previously read Taking Shots and Trying to Score.

Blurb:

Audrey Parker was in a horrible place.
She hated her job, her sister was getting married and moving out, but worst of all, she was in love with a total jerk. No matter what she did, every guy she met hurt her. All she wanted was her happily ever after. Her Prince Charming. Her Lucas Brooks! She didn’t know how to change her life but she knew she needed too.
Feeling like she was about to hit rock bottom, Audrey wakes up next to Tate Odder.

Tate Odder had lost everything.
After being brought up from the Assassins’ farm team, the Florida Rays to the Nashville Assassins, Tate hopes he’ll forget everything he has lost. He doesn’t. Each day gets harder to live in a place he doesn’t know. Even being the first rookie goalie to shut out an opposing team three times during the Lord Stanley Cup Finals, he still felt empty. With the loss of his parents and sister still heavy on his heart, Tate isn’t sure how to live like everything is okay.

But when he wakes up beside Audrey Parker, things start to change. She turns his life upside down with her kooky sense of humor and her bright clothing. She is intelligent and beautiful, and for once, he doesn’t feel empty.
Will Audrey be the person to fill the holes in Tate’s heart, making him whole again?
Or will another player ruin everything, leaving him feeling forever like an empty net?
