I am not really into Young Adult-Paranormal stuffs, even
though it is PNR. The fact that it’s YA doesn’t appeal to me. I’ve only
read HP and Twilight in that genre, and even tho I like it, it’s not considered
one of my most preferred. I’m into more mature PNR reads, like DH, IAD, New Species, LOTU, and other series that’s
in line with those. I so much love PNR with a lil smut in them, or Eroticism as
it may popularly be known. Haha. I’m such a smutter and I’m very proud of it. xx
But then, yesterday, Aug. 27- while I was patiently waiting
for the new releases of my fave authors to go live, and I was idling in DP when I saw ORIGIN by J.L Armentrout. It was one of the very most awaited book releases. I’ve seen it being recommended by the blogs I
followed on facebook and twitter but I did not pay attention to it since I am
not quite familiar with the author plus it’s YA. Yes, I know I’m one of those
readers who’s afraid (well, not really afraid), more on lazy to try reading
books from authors am not familiar of. I always go for the ones I’ve read a few
books from and from the ones I am marking as my fave. Not a good characteristic of a reader I know.
That’s just me. So I just let Origin be posted and not making an effort to
check it out. But when I read some
quotes posted by Paranormal Book Club (because it’s their Quotes Day) about Obsidian
(Lux #1), I find it good even for a YA-PNR. My interest is piqued and the fact
that I’m not usually reading stuffs in that genre makes it more appealing to
me.Then I learned that OBSIDIAN is written by none other than Jennifer
L. Armentrout. Waaaaaat? Why did not not read this book sooner? Ghaad. I'm such a.... Ugh. I am so rectifying that now. As in ASAP.
This is the exact quote that got my interest plummeting into oblivion:
This is the exact quote that got my interest plummeting into oblivion:
"Why are you such an ass?"
The words came out before I could think twice.
"Everyone has to excel at something, right?"
"Well, you're doing a great job."
"Everyone has to excel at something, right?"
"Well, you're doing a great job."
Darn. After reading that one, I
instantly developed a certain liking to the hero whoever he may be. You see, I
really have a thing for sarcastic-like hero and that line says it all. So I
immediately searched it on goodreads and read it’s blurb and reviews. One read
at the synopsis and I’m hooked. And while browsing its reviews, my interest got
hyped-up. I am itching to read the first book Obsidian right there and then
(2:37Am). Haha. So I got hold of the 3 books and the fourth one which was
released yesterday. And right now, I am starting to read
OBSIDIAN and was able to meet the infamous “holy trinity of hot boys” DAEMON
BLACK. Yay. And I LOVE HIM! God, he
makes me forget it’s YA I am reading! And I know it will become one of my fave
YA-PNR series.
That’s it. I will now continue
devouring him. Check it out also, you might like it. Off to my date with DAEMON
BLACK! ❤
NR: OBSIDIAN ( LUX #1 ) - And I am LOVING IT! ~
