Waiting on Wednesday {27}


Jill @ Breaking the Spine hosts this weekly meme where we can share a book that we are so excited for and are anxiously awaiting their upcoming release!

This week my WoW pick is...

Onyx (Lux #2) by Jennifer L. Armentrout


It's no secret that Jennifer has taken the YA book world by storm. She's found her place on top (and earned it) and she's definitely here to stay!

I was incredibly excited to read Obsidian after first hearing of it, and I was incredibly excited when I was asked to give an early review for Obsidian; and I was in NO way disappointed.

The series is completely fresh and full of exciting, with plenty of hooks to really grab you (including some really sexy romance). Needless to say, I'm one of the many people (millions? it's a lot!) eagerly anticipating the next installment in the Lux series!!

Warning: the Goodreads description is spoiler-y for those of you who haven't read Obsidian. BUT you can check out my review for Obsidian for a spoiler-free review and info on it.

And don't even get me started on those covers. BUT the good news for all of us impatient readers is that the SHADOWS novella releases in less than a week, on February 21st!

Goodreads Description:
Being connected to Daemon Black sucks…

Daemon’s determined to prove what he feels for me is more than a product of our bizarre connection. I’ve sworn him off even though he’s running more hot than cold these days. But against all common sense, I’m falling for him. Hard.

Our relationship issues aren’t out biggest problem…

The Department of Defense is here. If they ever find out what Daemon can do and that we’re linked, I’m a goner. So is he. And when a new boy shows up a school with a secret of his own, things get complicated fast. I need to choose between my own instincts and Daemon’s.

But then everything changes…

I’ve seen someone who shouldn’t be alive. Daemon’s never going to stop searching until gets the truth. What happened to his brother? Who betrayed him? And what does the DOD want from them—from me?

No one is who they seem. And not everyone will survive the lies.

Cover Reveal: ONYX

Back in October, I was fortunate enough to receive an e-galley of Jennifer L. Armentrout's new book, Obsidian, the first in her new Lux series. And today, I get to show you the new cover for the second book in the series, Onyx! It is GORGEOUS by the way.

Obsidian's official release date is tomorrow (December 6th) and it is one you all must absolutely read! I loved, loved, LOVED it! I can't rave about it enough. If you're curious, you can find my review for it here. If you haven't heard much about this one, I'm going to give you a neat little teaser that I loved about it: the main character, Katy, is a book blogger! So if you're familiar with the book blogging community at all, you'll love all the little allusions Jennifer includes to it in Obsidian.

Okay, I won't make you wait any longer... here it is alongside the cover for Obsidian!





Blurb Sneak Peek: No one is who they seem. And not everyone will survive the lies…



I didn't think it was possible, but I actually love the cover for Onyx more than the one for Obsidian! Daemon looks good (what else is new?) but I'm really curious about the setting they have in the background! Entangled Publishing has done a phenomenal job on these covers, yes?



Obsidian has released early so it should be available now, and you MUST get this one! I purchased both a paperback and e-book because each comes with extra scenes from Daemon's POV- the paperback has one, and the e-book has two scenes all different from each other.



If you'd like to purchase Obsidian, it's available at:
