Author: Jennifer L. Armentrout
Series: Lux (book 5)
Synopsis: Katy knows the world changed the night the Luxen came.
She can’t believe Daemon welcomed his race or stood by as his kind threatened to obliterate every last human and hybrid on Earth. But the lines between good and bad have blurred, and love has become an emotion that could destroy her—could destroy them all.
Daemon will do anything to save those he loves, even if it means betrayal.
They must team with an unlikely enemy if there is any chance of surviving the invasion. But when it quickly becomes impossible to tell friend from foe, and the world is crumbling around them, they may lose everything— even what they cherish most—to ensure the survival of their friends…and mankind.
War has come to Earth. And no matter the outcome, the future will never be the same for those left standing
How I got this book: Bought
WARNING: THIS REVIEW CONTAINS MINOR SPOILERS
My Thoughts:
This book was so fast. Like, seriously, I read 150 pages without even realising it.
Everything just happened So. Damn. Quickly.
The book wasn’t even that long…less than 400 pages, but so much happened.
And it was so stressful…it was like watching this:
But it was awesome.
It had everything you could want from a series ending. I’ve read some books where ‘so many people died and it was so horrible’, but really, none of these character’s are named, because nobody important died, just background characters.
That did not happen in this series! And while it was pretty horrible, I liked it. Because if everyone had survived it would have been very “Oh, come on! Really?” (I hate big wars where nobody important dies, in case you couldn’t tell).
Final Opinion:
This series started with a ‘girl meets mysterious guy who, as it turns out, isn’t human’ and ended with ‘apocalyptical event that is usually the back story to some dystopian novel’…
Not entirely what I expected, but still totally awesome!
I haven’t read this series yet, but I thought the same thing as you a novel about a girl falling for an alien boy. (Sort of like that old show Roswell) This is so much better! 🙂
Well, the first three books are about a girl falling for an alien boy.
Then everything escalates rather quickly, and the last two books are totally different from the first 3.
I loved this series! You’re right — it went super fast. I really enjoyed the dialogue though, and the characters. It took an unexpected turn and I liked that. 🙂
Yeah, I loved it 🙂
Nothing about this series is what I was expecting. It was wonderful.
