Synopsis:
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.
Together we’re stronger... and they know it.
Holy freaking HELLL!!!!!!! Can I just say HOW COULD YOU MS
ARMENTROUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think this woman lives to torment and destroy
our souls because honestly the ending of Opal was brutal to put it mildly. My
jaw hit the floor when it ended like I honestly couldn’t believe that this is
the cliffhanger she went with. It’s terrible and now I have to wait until JULY
FOR ORIGIN?????? Yeah I’m not gonna make it. Be prepared to plan my funeral
people because I’m gonna shrivel up and die while waiting for this book.
This is by far my absolute favourite JLA book ever! Three
reasons why that is.
Reason 1: DAEMON DAEMON DAEMON DAEMOOOOOOOOOOOON!!!!!!!!!!
The dude steps up his game in a huge way. Here we see his romantic side and boy
what a romancer he is. The guy made my insides all gooey and I melted so many
times I have no idea how I am still fully functional. He and Katy are the
perfect couple and he does everything to show her he loves her, even though he
doesn’t say it till later. He is a tad over protective of Katy during times
where she calls him a he-man (giggles) but I loved his over protectiveness.
Rather have a guy who cares too much, than a guy who cares too little is what I
always say.
Reason 2: This reason might be a bit spoilery if you haven’t
read Onyx so If you don’t want the spoiler skip over this reason!!!!!!!!!!
I must say that I completely love Dawson just as much as I
love Daemon. It was a bit sad that he was so distant from his sibs but I loved
the fact that he felt so comfortable with Katy and that he would mostly talk to
her and stay close to her side. Like at least he approves ya know? Dawson isn’t
as screwed in the head as I feared he would be. I think that he will actually
really recover.
Reason 3: Katy! I love this girl so much. She is so funny
and I really love that she is as much of a book freak as I am. She goes through
so much crap but she still keeps her wits about her. She is so stong and
admirable. She always puts everybody else’s needs before her own. She really is
just an amazing person.
What I disliked about this book is Dee. I had a huge problem
with her attitude and how she acted. I know she lost Adam but seriously? She
didn’t have to make Katy feel worse than she already does. It may have been her
fault but it’s not like she did it on purpose.
I really wanted to slap her most of the time.
Other than that this book was CRAZY GOOD IN EPIC
PROPORTIONS!!!! It’s a bone-chilling, toe-curling, inside-melting,
arms-flailing and bouts of rageful screaming read. If you haven’t read this
series yet I am ordering you to drop everything you are doing, run to the
bookstore, or drive you know whatever, screaming with your arms flailing above
your head until you have it. People might think you are weird OR they could
join you and you would have started a mass trend in buying the book!
