Okay so right off the bat I need the new book like yesterday, this book was soooo freakin good and that ending, how can she leave us hanging like that for real. Alright so now lets get down to the good stuff, this book was amazing I just can't seem to get enough, Jennifer writing is great, she really knows how to keep a reader engaged. The plot,story and characters, and by characters I mean Daemon "wink wink" were amazing. I did not realize I could swoon for Daemon more but I found out you very much could, Katy was great in this book she had to make some tough choices but she kept things together. Overall this book was truly amazing and I can't wait to read the next and I hope it doesn't take long to come out. :0)

Oh Daemon, Daemon, Daemon. And now Dawson! I can’t get over it. Even when they are fighting you can’t help but still swoon and fall for him. His cocky persona, his loving touches, and his all around jerkiness makes me wish that Daemon was real, because he really is one of a kind. So many things happen between Daemon and Katy in this novel and all they try to do is find a small amount of normalcy in their lives. Even going on a date and learning more about each other outside of the alien world is a very hard thing in their lives. This novel took me on a whirl-wind ride and I don’t even know how much of a review I can post without potentially revealing something. I will tell you that in this novel I find myself falling in love with Daemon all over again, just like in the first. I also felt for Katy…her life is a mess and there isn’t much she can do about it. And then there is the ending…I will tell you that it is a Cliffhanger, and that it changes the future of the series. Everything will be different and I cannot wait to find out all about it! Good: Katy—still a feisty book loving girl. Daemon—He’s Daemon as always Dawson—A new add to the mix. He brings something fresh and reminds me of Daemon Bad: Nothing that I can think of. Overall (Writing style, story line, and general): Overall, this book was another fantastic add to the series. I was captivated, drooling, sometimes frustrated and I simply want more, more, more. The humour was a plenty and the book was easy to follow. He story line in this book was pretty straight forward however there are some events that change the tone of the book making it far more serious than the previous novels. There weren’t many major twists until the end…that is when something really really big happens. It’s…crazy good. As per usual Jennifer L. Armentrout sucks you into her mischievous alien world probably with a large Cheshire cat smile on her face because, guess what?...She has you waiting impatiently for the next one and drooling over Daemon in your sleep. Let’s remember to bow down to her for her extraordinary writing technique and mad story-telling skills. What it would be like to spend a day in her imagination.

Once I got my greedy little hands on my Kindle edition of Opal I dived right back into the Luxen world. And boy was I not disappointed. With Opal I've fallen that much more in love with the characters and world Jennifer has created. I will admit that Opal is a slower paced novel compared to the previous 2 novels in the series, but don't let that dissuade you from grabbing a copy. Trust me if you are all for lots of steamy romance and a surprisingly ever changing element to the plot, Opal will serve it in spades. I devoured Opal in one day because I just couldn't put it down. I have read a few reviews saying that Opal is missing something and that is true. With the problems Katy is facing things are not the same as they were in Onyx. That friendship between her and Dee has taken a hard hit, and I really think that that is what people are missing. In all honesty the characters have grown and so has the direction of the story. We are seeing a more mature couple in Katy and Daemon, they are no longer the love/hate couple they used to be. So to all readers expect big changes because this is not the same characters way back in Obsidian. Katy, now here's my girl. I really enjoyed seeing the more mature and thoughtful Katy. Sure there are still some pieces of the old Katy in there, the parts that made us love her to begin with. But in Opal Katy is no longer an outsider to the Luxen gang, she's one of them. Finally we get to see Katy step up and take her place beside Daemon instead of the damsel in distress. I loved that she is trying to protect those she loves even though it is tearing her apart on the inside. Katy is seeing a darker side of herself and she is afraid, but that doesn't stop her from giving it her all. Sure she's scared and is afraid that any of her choices could lead to people getting hurt, but she pushes forward and keeps calm in the eye of the storm. OMG the swoonage between Katy and Daemon is just plain smoken! If my kindle could catch fire it would of. One thing to expect in Opal is that same witty sexy banter between this earth shattering pair. Daemon, OMG *swoons*. I have to say that Daemon has a forever fangirl in me! Not the stalker kind...okay maybe...just a little. In Opal we get to see a different protective side of Daemon, it's not the take Katy and throw her over his shoulder and take her back to the cave type. Daemon though he might not like it lets Katy make her own decisions even while entering dangerous situations. They are finally seeing eye to eye. I loved that he gave her the breathing room to be herself and didn't try to take over. There was a ton of growth between Katy and Daemon. Instead of the push/pull relationship we see some compromising. Katy stats the difference herself, with thinking on how they are like her parents. This is exactly what she wanted and needs between her and Daemon. I didn't think I could love Daemon more and once again Jennifer has managed to shove him into my heart permanently. Opal will capture your heart and leave you begging for more. I loved the new development, especially the one at the end. I knew a lot of people were shocked with it, but I can honestly say I have been waiting for this to happen since Obsidian. So truthfully I knew it would come, just a matter of when. I will definitely be waiting impatiently for Obsession to come out in March and Origin next summer. Overall Opal was a passion filled, more mature novel compared to the previous novels. It will leave you with a cliffhanger that will have you climbing the walls until the next installment is out. So what I am saying is, if you have not joined this Luxen gang, why not?
