Happiness is....

Review Lux Series by Jennifer Armentrout

My first introduction into the alien/human world created by JLA was by reading Obsession, and I loved it! Over a year later (because I'm cheap and have been stalking this series yet never reading), Obsidian goes on sale for free and I finally swoop down and dig my claws into that mother, and I couldn't put it down.
So here I am, having read the entire series in 7 days (so lucky that the last book was just released), and I loved it all!
This series starts out as YA romance, but I feel by book five all of our favorite characters have definitely become adults, matured & changed, and the romance is very strong, especially in the last 2 books, but it's not overwhelming as in some YA books, there's a whole lotta plot and twists and turns and ups and downs that kept me on my toes and kept me reading. Plenty of humor and awesome one-liners. The ending had me scared for a bit, but it turned out to be perfect.

Now I'm sad that it's over :(
Enter ensuing book hangover...

I'm just going to go ahead and rate all the books in the series 5/5 stars

Review of HORNS by Joe Hill

Overall, this was a thrilling read! A great mix of love, heartache, godliness, and the supernatural. I enjoyed the ups and downs of the story and many times I felt like I was hanging around my brothers as a kid, the dialog was real.

The only negative I have about this book is the ending, which seemed to drag on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on. People were supposed to leave but then showed up again, other characters showed up and the interactions that followed didn't seem to add anything to the story, just drew it out. And how many times to we need to read about Lee beating the crap out of Ig in the bowels of that building? It was a repeated scene that got old.

Overall, a good read. The ending could have been a bit better, and less drawn out. I'm excited for the movie!

4/5 stars

A movie I'm kinda excited about!

I'm reading HORNS by Joe Hill right now (finally)! I was a bit nervous, since Joe Hill is Stephen King's son, I was afraid of never sleeping again. But it's good. I'm about 1/2 way through.
Oh, and the trailer = pretty awesome!
