Jalyn (jalynnie) | 3827 comments I won't be on here much longer tonight, but I'd be glad to discuss it with you when I hop on gr. Did you love it? Because I did. Daemon makes me swoon :)


Rachael (classycupcakezz) | 5933 comments I haven't finished it yet but wanted to discuss it as I go..

I just met Blake and I can already see a love triangle in the making... Or maybe him and Dee will fall in love? idk but he's gonna be an important character I think

Ah, Blake! I can't say much without giving things away...I'll just say that most of the time I was reading, I disliked him.


Rachael (classycupcakezz) | 5933 comments Through chapter 11 (view spoiler)


Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 91005 comments Mod
ha ha! you so don't want me to discuss this with you! I hated it.


Rachael (classycupcakezz) | 5933 comments Serious?? Ahhhh well I know Jalyn LOVES this series so she can fangirl with me :)

I wish others were reading it for the first time with me though wahh :(


Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 91005 comments Mod
I still can't bring myself to read Opal. Just thinking about it makes me feel sick.

I couldn't bring myself to reading it either. :(
I think i was being a bit too kind giving it 2.5!


Rachael (classycupcakezz) | 5933 comments That's really dissapointing :( I REALLY like the characters so I'm hoping it stays interesting


Rachael (classycupcakezz) | 5933 comments Did you not like the first one either or is it just this second one in particular that you don't like?


Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 91005 comments Mod
I liked the first one the first time I read it. The second time I read it I didn't like it quite so much. The second one I really disliked.


message 280: by Abi (new) - rated it 3 stars

Abi (abi_gr) | 27659 comments The first one was okay, but it did take me ages to get into it.
The second one i couldn't enjoy, because the first half was really slow, and Katy annoyed me way too much. :(


Rachael (classycupcakezz) | 5933 comments Hmm well I don't share any of those feelings with you guys so hopefully it won't be such a bummer for me.. Crossing my fingers!

Jalyn (jalynnie) | 3827 comments @Sarah and @Abbie What?!? How could you not...Why wouldn't you...I just..But...Daemon!


message 283: by Jalyn (new) - rated it 4 stars

Jalyn (jalynnie) | 3827 comments Onyx (don't read until you finish, Rachel!)(view spoiler) but Opal was amazing! And I have no words good enough to convey my feelings for Origin.

I know! Daemon is delicious! He's one of my favorite book boyfriends :)
I'm excited to see what you think about where this goes, especially in the next two books!

P.S. You don't have to hide your spoilers when you're the only one currently reading it :) The next time people want to read this series, we'll create a barrier of sorts, saying that so-and-so are starting this book on a certain date, don't read above this line unless you want spoilers.


Rachael (classycupcakezz) | 5933 comments Finished Chapter 14

Okay Katy is starting to annoy me how she keeps insisting that Daemon doesn't like her.... TO Daemon.. My boyfriend always gets mad at me for "assuming I know what he's feeling/thinking" and that's totally whats going on here and its annoying lol

But I can look past it because I love watching Daemon try and change her mind.. I literally LOL at him constantly, I love his snark

It just wasn't for me at all. Just thinking about it now makes me want to vomit. you can't put into words how someone couldn't like this, I can't put into words how much I didn't like this.

Katy is really annoying in this book. I just wanted to tell her to shut up and pay attention! He obviously liked her.

His attitude is so funny!! I'm pretty sure I did some unladylike snorting while reading. Lol

Wow, you disliked it that much? That's so hard for me to understand. But then again, everybody is different. I couldn't stomach Juliette in Shatter Me, and Aria and Perry in Under the Never Sky were incredibly dull to me. It just depends on what you like!


Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 91005 comments Mod
I didn't like under the never sky either. so dull.


message 290: by Abi (new) - rated it 3 stars

Abi (abi_gr) | 27659 comments I hated under the never sky. The second one is still in my bookcase unread.


Rachael (classycupcakezz) | 5933 comments Well so far I'm totally on Jalyn's side... I just LOVE this book.. I love the characters.

Yes Katy can be annoying but shoot... I can relate to her and her annoyingness. I'm about half way through now, Daemon keeps getting sexier and sexier..

I decided I don't like Blake and I don't trust him.. Mostly because Daemon doesn't and I'm on his side 100%

Something good is about to happen though, Katy just saw Dawson's girlfriend.. I hope Dawson is alive!

So glad you're loving it! And I felt the same way about Blake.

Did you read Shadows (Lux, #0.5) by Jennifer L. Armentrout ? If you haven't, then you should. Especially if you're interested in Beth and Dawson's story :)


Rachael (classycupcakezz) | 5933 comments Nope I haven't yet but I'm gonna!


Rachael (classycupcakezz) | 5933 comments I miss Dee's presence in this book.. I wish Katy and Daemon would stop being so secretive and let her in on everything!

And I think her and adam being all physical is totally cute


Rachael (classycupcakezz) | 5933 comments 85% UGHHHH Damn you Blake!! I want to hate him and I do (sorta) but I kinda feel bad for him.

The bad guys in this one (DOD & Arum) are so despicable and hateable.. I give mad props to the JA because she can make us fall in love with the good guys and despise the bad guys.. Loving this still but for some reason it seems a little longer than the other one..

Oh and ADAM!!!! :(((( Dee is gonna be a mess.

I hate Blake.

Adam (view spoiler)

This book was a little long for the first half for me, but it picked up towards the second half. Wait until you read the rest! The next two books are sooooo good! Aaahhhh!


Rachael (classycupcakezz) | 5933 comments I KNEW I HATED WILL OMG!

And mm-mm-mm that sexy scene with Daemon & Katy where she FINALLY tells him she loves him and then he stops their almost sexy time and says he wants to do it right.

I just love how their relationship has progressed... It's picture perfect


Rachael (classycupcakezz) | 5933 comments I just finished and OMG DAWSON!!!

I knew he was alive but something is off with him.. I'm def gonna read Shadows now.

The ending was sooooo good I can't wait for the next ones


Rachael (classycupcakezz) | 5933 comments So I'm reading Shadows now, is there a way for me to change the thread title or can only mod's do that?

Changed it for you. :)

The only way you can change it yourself is if you were the one who created the thread, if not, only mods can do it.
