Hey everyone! I know it’s quite late but I really wanted to get this post up anyways! Teaser Tuesdays are always my favorite and I hate missing them. And once again, I almost missed it. *sigh*. But, it’s only 10:00pm here so technically I’m still on time!
For those who don’t know, Teaser Tuesday is a weekly segment I do here on my blog where I feature an excerpt from my current read. I usually pick the page I am currently reading or I pick one close to it. So basically you get a little taste of my current reads without being totally spoiled by a review post! It’s like winning the jackpot basically. Well, not really but let’s just pretend!
So now, without further ado, lets dive straight into this post!
“She pulled back, her eyes searching mine, and then she reclaimed the distance, and, damn, the kiss was half innocent, half desperate, and wholly perfect. My grip on her back tightened as she tilted her head, and even though the kiss started out as something sweet, I totally took it there. I deepened the kiss, throwing every fear into it, every minute that had passed that we’d been separated, and everything I felt for her. Her breathy moan shook me, and when she wiggled it nearly undid me.”
Can you guess what book it’s from?
It’s from Origin by Jennifer L. Armentrout. It is the fourth book in the Lux series and is such a phenomenal paranormal read. Well technically it is counted as Sci-Fi but really, it should be a paranormal!
I am currently rereading the whole Lux series! If you remember last week’s Teaser Tuesday, I was on Onyx, the second book in the Lux series. And now I’m almost finished the series. I know that Origin is going to make me a sobbing wreck and Opposition will just make me even worse but, I’m determined to fight through it all and finish the series this week! I start school next week so I won’t be getting as much reading done but, I’ll still be blogging a lot! Now let’s stop talking about my life and get down into the book!
Synopsis:
Daemon will do anything to get Katy back.
After the successful but disastrous raid on Mount Weather, he’s facing the impossible. Katy is gone. Taken. Everything becomes about finding her. Taking out anyone who stands in his way? Done. Burning down the whole world to save her? Gladly. Exposing his alien race to the world? With pleasure.
All Katy can do is survive.
Surrounded by enemies, the only way she can come out of this is to adapt. After all, there are sides of Daedalus that don’t seem entirely crazy, but the group’s goals are frightening and the truths they speak even more disturbing. Who are the real bad guys? Daedalus? Mankind? Or the Luxen?
Together, they can face anything.
But the most dangerous foe has been there all along, and when the truths are exposed and the lies come crumbling down, which side will Daemon and Katy be standing on?
And will they even be together?
If you haven’t read the first book in the series, Obsidian, definitely get on with it! And then you can read Onyx and Opal. AND THEN, you get to read Origin. If you have read it, definitely feel free to comment your thoughts on Origin! I absolutely loved it when I read it the first time! But, this time I think I’m savoring it a bit too much. I started it two days ago and have only got 150 pages in. I think it’s because I’m starting to like Archer’s character a bit.
Anyways, I hope you enjoyed this *very late* blog post! Happy Reading!
