Perfect Chemistry by Simone Elkeles





Perfect Chemistry (Perfect Chemistry, #1)
Review:
  When Brittany Ellis walks into chemistry class on the first day of senior year, she has no clue that her carefully created 'perfect' life is about to unravel before her eyes. She's forced to be lab partners with Alex Fuentes, a gang member from the other side of town, and he is about to threaten everything she's worked so hard for: her flawless reputation, her relationship with her boyfriend, and the secret that her home life is anything but perfect. Alex is a bad boy and he knows it. So when he makes a bet with his friends to lure Brittany into his life, he thinks nothing of it. But soon Alex realizes Brittany is a real person with real problems, and suddenly the bet he made in arrogance turns into something much more.
  Perfect Chemistry should be the first option for anyone that wants to read about bad boys and good girls. There were some parts in the book that made me want to read this story like a hundred times. Alex was unbeliveably amazing and sooooooo hawt! I love that he didn't turn all mushy after falling for Brittany as many "bad boys" do in other books. I also liked Brittany's character. She was really strong and confident. Who I loved the most was their teacher Mrs. Peterson. She had a fighting streak in her :P
  My favorite part was when Alex was teaching Brittany how to drive ;P Total Smoke!
  This book is definitely worth reading. It's impossible to leave it out of your list!

Obsidian (Lux 1) by Jennifer Armentrout

Review: 
Obsidian was about a 17 year old girl Katy who moves to West Virginia with her mother after her father dies of cancer. Now, not only does Katy has to deal with a new town and trying to fit in at her new school, but she also has to deal with the neighbors next door who aren't exactly from this world.
I think Obsidian beats any books I've read so far. Not only did it have romance but a lot of adventure and and suspense. Armentrout did a great job at creating characters, they were all so perfect. And a great story line too! The main character, Katy, was the best female character I've ever read. She was so strong and didn't let Daemon affect her, even though he really did. I love Daemon and Katy's relationship, it was perfect and hilarious. This book leaves me wanting more.
My favorite character was, OF COURSE, Daemon. He was so perfectly made and I had a hard time deciding if I favored him over Path from Hush, Hush. Daemon won.
I would recommend this to anyone that wants to obsess like crazy over a book. :)
