Okay so I have to be honest here. After putting down Obsidian I wanted to jump straight to this book but something inside me told me not to do so.
You know how sometimes you can just totally ruin good books by having to read the entire series in one week? Well I was about to do that. I had to stop myself, take a deep breath and decided to wait a little but to pick it back up.
I can't believe how much of an emotional rollercoaster this book was. It's like it doesn't really start of with a story line.. Katy and Daemon just... Well.. They are who they are which is amazing. I love how they piss eachother off so much because neither of them really want to admit to show any "weak" sides to the other.
God I just love the chemestry between them. At the first book I wasn't sure if I was going to completely and irrevocably fall in love with this serie but I did. I'm hopeless. Sometimes I think I'm just simply unable to not love a book.
I admit that it's very hard for me to read a book and hate it. Eventhough sometimes storylines and plots colide with other books. I can't help it.
In a way I feel like people who dislike this sort of book saying it's too much like this or that or too much the same story line all over again and just couldn't get through it should just start looking for a new genre. Obviously this isn't it for them, which isn't a problem at all for me! Everyone read what he or she likes to read but it makes me sad that they decide to dish it.
Anyway back to the book..
I can honestly say that this book is a must read.. I think you could even get away with skipping the first book but in a way that would mess up the chemestry and history Daemon and Kat have. The only thing that I could have done without is Kat's endless doubt. I think most people would've not given it a second thought after the first book!
But I get her doubt. She wants the love she reads in her novels. The romance all of us dream of.
The characters really seem to grow with the story and you get a lot more upclose to them and their history. I feel like this has been the best book so far I've read from JLA and I'll gladly move on to the next without doubt.
With this book, get ready for an emotional rollercoaster that takes you from a book with no real plot (which is fine) to a book with a plot that will blast you away every 10 pages or so.
The cover could be more special but it's nicely done (they look kind of too old and I remeber Kat complaining a lot about not being skinny skinny), it gives a little bit info on how Daemon and Kat feel but yet don't feel about eachother.
I payed about 5 for this book as an ebook which I think is a more than fair price. Obviously I can't say anything bad about the story today and I'm happy with the Character Development.
Cover: 1/2
Price: 2/2
Story: 2/2
Characters: 1.5/2
Overall: 1.5/2
Leaving me at an 8/10 for this book. Well deserved. Nice work Jennifer L. Armentrout!
