WARNING. Hardcore
fangirling and a flurry of gifs ahead. Keep distance from the screen.
In the beginning, there was…
And yeah, that’s me in all my different swooning glory. Adorable,
no?
Starting over sucks.When we moved to West Virginia right before my senior year, I'd pretty much resigned myself to thick accents, dodgy internet access, and a whole lot of boring.... until I spotted my hot neighbor, with his looming height and eerie green eyes. Things were looking up.And then he opened his mouth.Daemon is infuriating. Arrogant. Stab-worthy. We do not get along. At all. But when a stranger attacks me and Daemon literally freezes time with a wave of his hand, well, something...unexpected happens. The hot alien living next door marks me.You heard me. Alien. Turns out Daemon and his sister have a galaxy of enemies wanting to steal their abilities, and Daemon's touch has me lit up like the Vegas Strip. The only way I'm getting out of this alive is by sticking close to Daemon until my alien mojo fades. If I don't kill him first, that is.Goodreads

DAEMON BLACK
IS THE LIFE OF A BOOK!
-Confessions of a shameless fangirl (aka
Johanna)
Stunningly
engrossing, intensely provocative and raving hot, Obsidian is a book where
boredom is a forbidden thing. The sizzling romance is what fuels the urge to
swoon, swoon and yeah, swoon some more. It
is every fangirl’s dream book. Because seriously, guys, it is nonstop scorching
hot and dayum-ness sci-fi with the sexiest alien I’ve ever meet in my whole
freaking existence. It definitely blew me away to the farthest planet where
Daemon lived *smirks*
Katy is a book blogger
(Huzzaaahhhh!!) who is apparently vying
for a top position in my “MOST ENVIABLE HEROINE OF THE CENTURY” list. I mean, c'mon, why is she--
*someone throws
Daemon Black in*
KYAAAAAAAAAAA!!!
*melts into fangirl
puddle*
*revives*
So he’s Daemon, alien HOTNESS
PERSONIFIED. There was once a time while I was reading (or ravishing,
either way works fine), I asked him through my screen, “Daemon, why are you
such an asshole?” But damn Greek gods in Olympus! He’s the hottest asshole and
jerk in the whole freaking Earth. Pardon my unsophistication, it’s healthy for
a damsel to act like this sometimes. I’m really not into aliens but hell, this
book gives me the tingles.
The plot is surprisingly interesting and it would draw you
in as quick as lightning. Witty and sarcastic dialogues from Katy and Daemon
plus the thrilling build up is what makes Obsidian a champion. By the way, it’s
in Katy’s POV and we are literally seeing things in her eyes. Like THE Daemon.
First look at him and bam! Hell, man you are definitely joining my
harem this very minute!
Romance is a big factor in Obsidian what with Katy’s
oh-so-sweet resistance to Daemon’s expert seduction (is it even legal to use
this? XD). Absolutely to die for. Like you wanna experience the real deal yourself.
Jennifer Armentrout has gained herself another stalker in disguise of a damsel
*points at self* She writes scenes that make me feel like I am Katy. Heh! And
of course, Daemon’s invincible love to Dee added about a million points from
me. It is also advisable that while you are reading this book, you may fan yourself
or hug a pillow at the same time. I did. I was giggling and LOL-ing every
minute Kat and Daemon talk. The two main characters’ love-hate relationship
never gets old. Reminds me of my own…*audience groans* Yeah, yeah, whatever.
The concept of the Luxen (light) and Arum (darkness) has given a tasteful twist
in this riveting book.
Obsidian is the physical evidence that triggers decadent thoughts
and actions (squealing, drooling, screaming etc…) It will leave you yearning
for more Katy and more (mooorre) Daemon. And warning, BE PREPARED TO BE DAEMON’S FANGIRL FOREVER!!!
P.S. Sorry for the abused words. : P
“Why are you such an ass?” The words came out before I could think twice.
“Everyone has to excel at something, right?”
Moving over her, against her, I loved the sound she made—a soft, wholly feminine murmur that scorched every piece of me. “You’re perfect for me,” I whispered in my own language. -Daemon
*Me after their kiss.
