ARC Apollyon

Apollyon- Jennifer Armentrout

First, let me say, if you haven't read Elixir, you should read that first.

I was one of the lucky few to receive an ARC! Thank you so much Spencer Hill! And as an avid reader of the covenant series, I was sure I would be impressed with this next book and Jenn didn't disappoint!

It was jaw- droppingly, heart- stoppingly, book- grippingly amazing. Like woah! My mind is still blown. Imagine the awesomeness of Half-Blood, Pure, Deity, and Elixir COMBINED.

Yea. It's that good.

There were time where I'd be reading and think, "Man, this so can't get any crazier." And then... BAM!! It'd get crazier. Apollyon is officially the best book of the series. Hands down. So much background information is uncovered, that my eyes practically popped out of my head.

Not only was it beautifully written with practically poetic descriptions like, "his eyes were pools of silver," and "The enormity of what lay ahead was a cold draft on my skin and deeper, on my soul," but it had even more of Jenn's marvelous humor with, "Yeppers Peppers", "creeptastic" and my personal favorite, "that little punk-ass bitch". Not to mention all the wonderful, totally agreeable, Supernatural references.

Alex shows the most character growth. I felt like in Apollyon, I could connect with her more. I fell with her weaknesses and rose with her strengths. Marcus also makes a change. And as always, Apollo needs a freaking bell! Aiden was absolutely my favorite character in this book. He was heart skippingly magnificent.

"Lowering his head, his lips brushed over mine. I was sure I tasted of dirt and sour apple, courtesy of the Blow Pop I'd been nursing earlier,but he

made this sound against my mouth, part growl and part something deeper. As the kiss deepened, like he could just devour the taste and feel, I melted against him."

Think its hot now? Yea, it gets steamier. :)

Through this book, I found myself on a journey, laughing and crying, ooo-ing and awe-ing with the characters. If you don't read this, you've clearly got no soul.

Now, excuse me, while I wither away waiting for Sentinel.

Peace and Love,
Lyssa, aka Fire

P.S. I'm totally naming my next dog, "Toto". :)
