Opal (Lux, #3)

by Jennifer L. Armentrout

I was totally kicking myself for not starting this series sooner, but now I wish I had waited! The ending of Opal is a killer! It's a huge cliffhanger and I need the next book! Lux is definitely one of those series that gets better and better with each book. In Opal there is more of everything. More tension, more danger, more steamy Kat and Daemon scenes, more bickering between Kat and Daemon! There only thing that there was less of was Dee's bubbly personality, which is understandable after the events in Onyx, but I missed her.

Katy and Daemon have most definitely made my list of favorite YA couples. It took them forever to finally get together, but not much has changed. I like that. Just because they're dating and totally hot for each other, doesn't make their faults go away. Katy still finds Daemon to be an insufferable jerk from time to time, and Daemon still makes fun of all of her crazy quirks. They are not the super mushy, everything is rainbows and butterflies type of couple. They fight, they bicker, they make out. But they also talk about their problems instead of going behind the others back then forgetting about it. Thumbs up to Katy and Daemon!

I really cannot think of anything to say that I haven't said before. These books are great fun, exciting, and sexy! Opal definitely takes everything to the next level as Katy and Daemon try to rescue everyone while simultaneous trying to protect themselves and each other. The DOD is a tough opponent, and they are just teenagers. I like that the author hasn't included some magical solution that enables a group of 18 year olds to take down a government agency, even if they all have supernatural abilities. There are complications and a lot of them. That ending...holy crap...even the best laid plans can go terribly, terribly wrong. I can't wait to see how they get out of that one!
