Obsidian by Jennifer L Armentrout

Obsidian (Lux, #1)

by Jennifer L. Armentrout

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.

Uhm...uhm... I wish I could love this book more but it was all cliche from the beginning until the end. And the way Katy lusted after Daemon made me want to puke over and over again. Honestly, it seemed that every paragraph in this book contained sentences that described how hot Daemon is and how his eyes turned into such a magnificent hue of green that one couldn't help but get lost in them. What the fuck?! And the worse thing, I'm gonna have to finish this series because I'm a masochist that way.
