LUX=
a unit of illumination OR
‘light’ in Latin OR
a planet far far away in a distant galaxy with inhabitants that are made of light and energy
When am I absolutely sure that I will love a book/series?
1. When it has more than 180000 ratings
2. When there are more than 15000 reviews in goodreads
3. When its average rating is more than 4 stars
4. When many of the popular young adult reviewers hate it, but they still read it in order to write bitter ("funny"?) reviews about how horrible this book is
But that’s just me. I just love naïve stories that try to copy other successful books and major film blockbusters….. Hahaha…NOT
This is a brilliant book! I don’t find easily good young adult romance sci-fi books. This is an exception, which I loved from the first until the last page. It is read easily, although it is sci-fi.
What did I love?
The chemistry between Daemon and Katy is off the charts
Holy Hawt Chemistry, Batman!
Dee, Daemon’s sister is adorable:
“Oh my God.” I gripped the cool marble of the sink until my knuckles throbbed. “My best friend’s an alien.”
And teenager hormones are all over the place:
I leaned over the table and turned my plate upside down over Daemon’s and Ash’s heads. Chunks of noodles and spaghetti sauce fell. Most of the red gunk hit Ash and the noodles covered Daemon’s broad shoulder. One long, stringy noodle slid over Daemon’s ear and hung there, flopping around. There was an audible gasp that rang out through the surrounding tables.
I had so much fun while I was reading this book and I will definitely read the whole series in 2018.

Γενικά είχε πολύ πλάκα ο τρόπος που προσπαθούσε να την απομακρύνει και κάθε φορά εμφανιζόταν σαν φάντης μπαστούνι μπροστά της.
Wonderful review, Sophia. I thoroughly enjoyed reading your review.. thank you so much for posting it.

I enjoyed this series too, although J. Armentrout definitely isn‘t my favorite author due to her lack of originality. The banter in this book was really funny, although the hot and cold behaviour of Daemon really grated on my nerves.
