As I said in my last post, I'm about to start reading the fourth book in the Lux series, Origin, by Jennifer L. Armentrout.
I'm totally still procastinating to start it because oh boy, am I scared.
Anywayzee, when I finish Origin I'll be putting up a series review, spoilers and spoiler free so you can check that out when it's up if you like. ;-)
But would you want me to also do a individual review on each of the books in the series, beginning with the first one leading up to the fourth one? I'd spread them over a few days so there'd be time to breathe in between. :-)
Please let me know down in the comments if you like and have a nice day!

Hey guys!
So as you could see I've just finished reading Allegiant and right before that I read the first three books in the Lux series; Obsidian, Onyx and Opal.
Now I'm going to jump into the fourth book, Origin, but I'm super scared of what's going to happen after reading Opal...
But what I would like to know is have you read these books? If so, what are your thoughts on them? But please, don't include any spoilers for those who haven't read them unless you give warning!
Thank you and have a nice day! :)

Allegiant review, **SPOILERS INCLUDED**
Hey guys, so in my last post I said I was going to review Allegiant so here it comes! :-)
As you should know, this is the third and final book in the Divergent series by Veronica Roth. So if you haven't read the first two I suggest you should'n read this, it contains spoilersfor all the books, so if you haven't read them, I suggest you stop reading when you get to this mark: ------------ down below.
Description: (taken from goodreads)
What if your whole world was a lie?
What if a single revelation—like a single choice—changed everything?
What if love and loyalty made you do things you never expected?
The faction-based society that Tris Prior once believed in is shattered—fractured by violence and power struggles and scarred by loss and betrayal. So when offered a chance to explore the world past the limits she’s known, Tris is ready. Perhaps beyond the fence, she and Tobias will find a simple new life together, free from complicated lies, tangled loyalties, and painful memories.
But Tris’s new reality is even more alarming than the one she left behind. Old discoveries are quickly rendered meaningless. Explosive new truths change the hearts of those she loves. And once again, Tris must battle to comprehend the complexities of human nature—and of herself—while facing impossible choices about courage, allegiance, sacrifice, and love.
----------------------------------
So. This. Book.
In the beginning I was very excited to read this book, I had been waiting for months. So.. you can imagine my reaction of getting it in my hands.
In the first chapters of the book everything seemed to be going just fine and it was a real addition to the book and the story to have chapters from Tobias' point of view.
The story line was a little bit slow I think, but that is just how these books are, slow but action-packed.
I was really excited to finally have them go outside the fence and see what's beyond their world. It hit me hard to find out everything they had been living with was just a lie, an experiment. I really felt for Tobias when they said his genes were damaged, but I was on Tris' side there, it didn't change anything about who he was.
Then... when Tobias took part in Nita's plan I was really frustrated with him. Also...WHY DID URIAH HAVE TO STAND SO CLOSE TO WHERE THE BOMB EXPLODED!?
I really, really, really, did not want him gone. And.. by having him in a coma half the book, Veronica gave us false hope that he might actually recover.
But the ending was worst. But I kind of expected it after Veronica said that if she had written the Harry Potter books, she would have killed of Harry to give more to the story.
Anyway. That didn't make me feel any better when she had Tris going in that room instead of Caleb. Why, Tris, why? Why didn't you just let Caleb, the traitor, go in there like planned? You would have survived and could have had a good future with Tobias!
It ended really sad, but I loved the journey. Even though I cried my eyes out.
This is it for my review, but I want to know what did you think of the book? Was is a dissapointment from the first two? Did you love it/hate it?
Please tell me down in the comments what you tought, and if you have any books to recommend to me they would be a welcome addition.
See y'all later!

My first blog
Hi there guys!
This is my very first attemt to have a book-blog.
I am a 16 year old girl from Iceland and I love to read, I mostly (almost only) read YA books and I'll be posting my TBRs here and review them once I've finished them, and warn if I contain any spoilers. I'll try to keep this as updated as possible for me, and you :)
Hopefully this will work out! ;- )
