The LUX Series - A not-so-review review.


Okay, so I'm currently reading Jennifer Armentrout's "Lux' series. I just barely managed to pull myself out of Daemon and Katy "Kitten's"lust-love-war relationship to bring you this message.





I initially began reading this book based on maryse.net 's review on it and to be honest I expected steamy R-rates scenes from the get go (which I would have been totally fine with and may a little ecstatic.... well I may be a bit of a pervy perv, but that's besides the point!) but NOOOO what I got is Edward and Bella (from the Twilight Series by Stephenie Meyer) reincarnated! I know to some of you lazy bums who may have only seen the Twilight movies this may be slightly off-putting, but anyone who has read the Twilight books KNOWS that they were awesomesauce with a dash of tabasco and the movies are just a caricature of Ms Meyer's story!

Okay so maybe I should have introduced myself first right? Silly me...
I am ALOLA, not my real name but who really cares about names tbh?
Alright, maybe names are important but just call me Alola on here! :)
A little teeny weeny info about me: I loooove reading! *Shocker!*
I guess they help me 'escape' from reality but there's no trauma in my real life that I have to escape from so I guess I'm just another nerdy nerd who reads a lot, sue me. Actually I should probably say, I'm also a legal practitioner in training.
Anyway I plan to blog about books I'm reading or have read, and whatever else interests me.

Back to the quasi not-so-review review:

I am finding it hard to put these books down and I'm currently guns-blazing into Onyx- the second book in the series- in just as many days and Lord knows if I will be able to put down this book so I can catch some zzzz's tonight.

Read these books if you're looking for witty dialogue, slightly unpredictable characters, very many twisty twists, and just a story that takes you into another world just outside of your reality.




I'm really not sure if I want to give ratings on a number scale because I feel like these things are sooo unreliable, I mean how helpful are ratings really if it's just based on one persons (me, that is) point of view?

That aside, I guess numbers will be helpful, but make sure to take everything I say with a pinch (or more like a dollop actually) of salt. Look at other review sites before you take the leap into buying any books baby!

Actually, thinking on it, I am yet to finish the books yet so I will not rate them right now... so take this as a review in progress.

Not sure what I may post next, but keep looking out!

Till next time!
