Book Review: Onyx (Lux Series, #2) by Jennifer L. Armentrout



Goodreads Synopsis: Being connected to Daemon Black sucks…

Thanks to his alien mojo, Daemon’s determined to prove what he feels for me is more than a product of our bizarro connection. So I’ve sworn him off, even though he’s running more hot than cold these days. But we’ve got bigger problems.

Something worse than the Arum has come to town…

The Department of Defense are here. If they ever find out what Daemon can do and that we're linked, I’m a goner. So is he. And there's this new boy in school who’s got a secret of his own. He knows what’s happened to me and he can help, but to do so, I have to lie to Daemon and stay away from him. Like that's possible. Against all common sense, I'm falling for Daemon. Hard.

But then everything changes…

I’ve seen someone who shouldn’t be alive. And I have to tell Daemon, even though I know he’s never going to stop searching until he gets the truth. What happened to his brother? Who betrayed him? And what does the DOD want from them—from me?

No one is who they seem. And not everyone will survive the lies...

Onyx is even better than Obsidian! And as usual I couldn't stop turning the page for more. There is more Daemon which I love.

Daemon and Katy are now connected because of a major thing that happened in Obsidian. Katy keeps denying what Daemon feels for her. She assumes that what Daemon feels is just because of the connection. But Daemon will not give up until he proves that what he feels for her is real. It's really adorable when he tries to be sweet. On the outside he's a real tough guy but there's this soft side of his that I adore so much.

There's a new character (Blake) that will be the reason for Daemon's jealousy and also the reason for most of the tension that is building up between them. In some parts, I'm screaming at Katy in my head telling her to trust Daemon. There's a part of her that wants to really trust him but she also doesn't want to be told what to do. And I think that that's what makes here a badass character. She wants to prove that she is not just a weak human and she will really prove that in Onyx. There will also be a character that will be dead by the end of Onyx (it's for you to find out if you decide to start reading Obsidian) There will be stuff that Daemon will do and say that will sweep you off your feet! It is a perfect 2nd book to the Lux series! Swoon-worthy! It was another thrill ride!
