Onyx blew me away!!!There is a lot of action and turns happening that will keep you reading and reading. And the tension between Daemon and Katy is electric!!!!!!
It’s one of those books that you just don’t want to end!!
Daemon ofcourse was as hot as ever!!!I really liked him in Obsidian but he was kind of a jerk at times but in Onyx he completely won me over!!!!

Onyx by Jennifer L. Armentrout

Second in the Lux series

5 stars!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There may be spoilers from Obsidian in here. You have been warned.

Katy and Daemon Black are connected and it sucks. Daemon has decided he wants to be with Katy and she’s determined to make sure it doesn’t happen. After all of the things he did to her she isn’t going to be with him just because of a “connection”. But it’s harder said than done. Bigger problems are arising for both Katy and Daemon. The

Omg!!!! This book was so good that when it ended I cried like seriously I'm such I baby. I loved this book so much there were parts when I squealed with joy, threw the book across the room in anger, and literally just cried because I was so happy. I loved Daemon, Katy, and Dee so much more in this book then the first. Daemon just showed his sweeter side so much more and all these other emotions that he didn't show in Obsidian. Katy is just Katy, sweet, sarcastic I just love her so much. She is j ...more

I don't think I've ever swooned so much while reading a book!!It never happened before.While Obsidian was kinda like the starting point and didn't have that much action,Onyx was full of action that had me on edge and furiously reading to see what would happen next.Everything was so beautifully described and I loved how Katy developed as a character because truth be told,she was really different from the Katy we met in Obsidian.But she's still caring,loyal and would do anything to protect the ones she loves.Even lie and risk her life which she kinda did since the last chapters really broke my heart.Reading about her being tortured that way was awful and I was so glad when that scene ended.I have to admit that I disagreed with some of the choices she made.However,they taught her some things and I could understand why she wanted to learn how to fight and why she chose Blake to train her.There are always moments in life where we do the wrong thing without realizing it but the choices we make in the end are the ones that really count.

What really frustrated me,but not in a bad way was the fact that Katy kept denying her feelings for Daemon.The guy freaking confessed that he liked her,apologized multiple times and went from being a jerk to being this gentle and tender guy who I adore even more.He even brought her things every single day and she was still like...I want something normal and Daemon is anything but normal.Even though I was annoyed by that small detail,I loved the scenes between them and felt like jumping up and down when I was reading about their tender moments together.I laughed,I got angry,I got frustrated...It was a roller coaster of emotions which I immensely enjoyed being a part of.

I'm gonna say it again though that Katy is one of the most loyal and caring characters ever and I'd love to have a friend like her.She's always there and even though she becomes tougher and kinda finds her inner strength,she's still the same Katy ...maybe a bit more mature which is never a bad thing.

And what can I say about Daemon?I can't express how I feel about Daemon with words.He's the definition of perfection and I think I'll never stop loving him.He has officially become my fictional boyfriend and I'll be really sad when the time comes for me to say goodbye.He's obviously changed and the process was more than fascinating.He also develops as a character and does so many wonderful things to make Katy feel better.He's also caring and loyal and like Katy,will do anything to protect those he loves.Which shows that they're not that different.

Moving on to the writing.I love the way Jennifer L. Armentrout writes and the fact that she can make me feel so many things in such a short time.The concept was amazing and the characters she creates feel real and alive.It's just so easy to imagine Katy and everyone else living next door and doing all the things that are described in the book.It creates this connection between the reader and the characters,this bond that can't be broken.It makes you wanna do something to help them and you'd do anything to live in their world.

I think Onyx was the perfect sequel to Obsidian which of course left many questions unanswered.Everything was so unique and I can't wait to read Opal which I'm pretty sure will be even better!It will also answer a lot of questions and probably clear a few things up!

This was such an enjoyable and fast paced read with a more than satisfying ending.It's kind of addicting since you just wanna keep reading and never let go and it took me to an amazing journey full of swoon worthy moments,action,pain and happiness.Because the one can't exist without the other....There's no happiness without pain,no light without darkness.Does that make any sense?Highly recommend the series if you haven't checked it out yet!

I would hate to spoil the story for anyone because it is just that good.

Katy has had a an odd connection with Daemon since he healed her. She believes it to be the reason why Daemon is always hot for her. If you enjoyed the laptop scene in Obsidian, you will frickin' love Onyx!! There are a lot more romance scenes with Daemon and Katy :::wags eyebrows:: Now don't go getting all excite ...more

This book is as good, if not better, than the first. Most sequels don't live up to the first book, but this one did. It has you laughing, crying, even pacing around your room in frustration. All the characters work, even if you didn't like them in the beginning, you grow to like them now. It's beautifully written and makes you feel exactly what Kat feels, and it's nice to have a book make you feel that way. Even though you think you know what's going to happen, call it reader's intuition, it's s ...more
