A review by yviie_reads
Obsidian by Jennifer L. Armentrout
5.0
"I was always able to lose myself in reading. Books were a necessary escape I always gladly jumped into headfirst."
FREAKING AMAZING!! That first quote leads me straight to Katy - she's a passionate booklover with her own blog - and i felt instantly connected to her! She was very sympathic but also stubborn and brave! A very, very likeable main character!
Especially her scenes with Daemon were hilarious! I shipped them from the very first scene and throughout the book it got worse - I was so looking forward to their little fights and arguments and grinned like a cheshire cat! Seriously, the dialogues were one of the best parts of the book!
"His face was something that any artist would die to get a chance to sit and sketch - no light reflected badly off him. But he could also be the biggest jerk on the planet."
Now let's move on to Mr. Hottie himself, Daemon Black. Damn, the bookcover made be feel even more attracted to him than i already was! I enjoyed his cocky and arrogant attitude way too much - plus he always made me laugh and blush because he's so damn awesome. He might even be one of my favorite characters ever!
The fact that this book is about aliens bothered me at first - i never read anything about aliens and i didn't really know what to expect but holy cow! I'm loving it!
I can't really say anything about the plot itself, i don't want to spoil anyone - just this: It was amazing!
There were so many great scenes and dialogues and i had a hard time reminding myself that it's a BOOK and not a movie! Jennifer L. Armentrout's writing style made it so easy to visualize every scene! I had REAL PICTURES in my head, the scenery and how they looked and the way the interacted with each other. It was so easy to get lost in all that awesomeness.
I even liked all the other characters - especially Dee! She seemed so nice and cute and just generally loveable! Definitely a friend you want to keep forever! I'm not sure about the others - although i quite liked Adam! He seemed nice and different.
I could go on like this forever but I think everyone knows now that i absolutely ADORED this book! I was hooked right from the beginning and now i can't wait to continue with the second book! Damn, this is gonna be awesome! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! ;)

And the bonus paged in his POV were genius! It made me understand him better and I loved the short glimpse into his mind and thoughts!The fact that this book is about aliens bothered me at first - i never read anything about aliens and i didn't really know what to expect but holy cow! I'm loving it!

I was very pleased by their "true form" and i expected worse, to be honest, but this? Just beautiful and the idea was awesome! Also the talk Daemon and Katy had after he stopped the truck - and saved her life *happy sigh* - was perfect! The way they talked and he showed her everything was so intimate and made me really, really happy!I can't really say anything about the plot itself, i don't want to spoil anyone - just this: It was amazing!
Spoiler
Arum and Luxen and their history and damn, really good and well described! I was so fascinated by the Arum and that they're the opposite of the Luxen! And don't get me even started on the endscenes! THE FIGHT?! EPIC! I have so many questions about Kat and how she could kill him ... anD AND DAEMON! His pain when he thought Katy is going to die and the words he whispered - OH MY GOD! MY FEELS!There were so many great scenes
Spoiler
When they went swimming, the spaghetti scenes - hilarious btw! -, the kind-of-snuggle on the bed, their almost kiss - that almost killed me! - and of course when KATY saved DAEMON!I even liked all the other characters - especially Dee! She seemed so nice and cute and just generally loveable! Definitely a friend you want to keep forever! I'm not sure about the others - although i quite liked Adam! He seemed nice and different.

Also i'm super interested in Dawson's story! Looking forward to read everything about him and Bethany!I could go on like this forever but I think everyone knows now that i absolutely ADORED this book! I was hooked right from the beginning and now i can't wait to continue with the second book! Damn, this is gonna be awesome! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! ;)
