Last night I finished reading Obsidian by Jennifer L. Armentrout, the first book in the Lux series. I really enjoyed this one and would recommend it for anyone who likes to read young adult paranormal romance.
This book starts off with the lead female character, Katy Swartz moves to West Virginia at the beginning of her senior year of high school. When her mother convinces her to ask the teenagers next door where the local grocery store is, she meets Daemon Black, a guy she deems hot, but infuriating. While at the store, she meets his twin sister, Dee Black, who desperately wants to be friends with her. Even though Daemon continues to try to scare her off, Katy is determined to keep him from ruining this friendship. Then, she finds out the reason behind his desperate attempt to make her leave his sister alone. The two are aliens, beings of light that must keep under the radar of the United States government while also using their powers to keep their enemy, the Arum, from killing them.
I liked Katy's ability to stand up for herself and enjoyed the constant banter between her and Daemon. I was quickly won over by Katy's wittiness and love of books. This made me want to defend her when Daemon said some awful things to drive her away. I'm sure those of you out there who enjoy this genre will love the book as much as I did.
