Sentinel (Covenant #5) by Jennifer L. Armentrout

It's a beautiful day for a war.

As the mortal world slowly slips into chaos of the godly kind, Alexandria Andros must overcome a stunning defeat that has left her shaken and in doubt of their ability to end this war once and for all.

And with all the obstacles between Alex and her happily-ever-after with the swoonworthy Aiden St. Delphi, they must now trust a deadly foe as they travel deep into the Underworld to release one of the most dangerous gods of all time.

In the stunning, action-packed climax to the bestselling Covenant series, Alex must face a terrible choice: the destruction of everything and everyone she holds dear… or the end of herself.





My Thoughts: *Might contain spoilers from previous books in this series*


Sentinel was epically fantastic! What a perfect, beautiful, amazing ending to a fantastic series! I honestly couldn't have asked for a more perfect conclusion to this series. It was so beautiful and I cried so hard at the end. 

This book completely blew me away. I love how much Alex has grown through each book and how much it showed in this final one. She has gone through so much and matured so much yet she still remains positive and down-to-earth and I find her to be a greatly admirable character. I love her so much and I loved seeing her mature and overcome everything. 

In the previous books I was not a huge fan of Seth, like at all. I really didn't like him and I didn't like the decisions he made, and I wondered how he could do the things he did, but in this final book I feel like he did get some redemption. We really delve into what happened from Seth's side and how everything affected him and oh god, it broke my heart! I can't wait for The Return to come out and continue reading Seth's story! 

So much happened in this book! There were so many thing resolved, so many plot twists! It was really fast paced and something was always happening, it was never boring and I just couldn't stop reading! I had to wait until I was home to read this book because I was getting so many emotions from reading it!

Sentinel ended perfectly, in my opinion. I feel like Alex and Aiden both got the perfect ending that they deserved and I  am so happy with it! I finished this book at around 1 in the morning and literally cried for the last 60 pages, not out of sadness really, but just because I was overwhelmed with feels! This book was so amazing and it was everything that I could have asked for in a conclusion to this series. I'm so sad that this series is over, but I will definitely be re-reading it probably more than 5 times and I know that this series and its characters will live on with me for a long time.

Apollyon (Covenant #4) by Jennifer L. Armentrout

Fate isn’t something to mess with… and now, neither is Alex.

Alex has always feared two things: losing herself in the Awakening and being placed on the Elixir. But love has always been stronger than Fate, and Aiden St. Delphi is willing to make war on the gods—and Alex herself—to bring her back.

The gods have killed thousands and could destroy entire cities in their quest to stop Seth from taking Alex’s power and becoming the all-powerful God Killer. But breaking Alex’s connection to Seth isn’t the only problem. There are a few pesky little loopholes in the whole “an Apollyon can’t be killed” theory, and the only person who might know how to stop the destruction has been dead for centuries.

Finding their way past the barriers that guard the Underworld, searching for one soul among countless millions, and then somehow returning will be hard enough. Alex might be able to keep Seth from becoming the God Killer… or she might become the God Killer herself.


My Thoughts: *Might contain spoilers from previous books in this series*


Holy crap. This series honestly just keeps getting better and better with every book I read! This book was so amazing, I could not stop reading it! My love for this series has grown so much and it's now one of my all time favorites.

Somehow, Alex got even more awesome in this book. I seriously love Alex, she's one of my favorite characters. She's so kick-ass, strong and just awesome! She's so snarky and hilarious. I love reading her story. In this book we also get a lot more Aiden and Alex scenes, which I loved. Alex and Aiden are one of my favorite book couples, I love them together.

This book had a lot of kick-ass moments. We got to see Alex fighting for her life and for the life of all Pures and Half-Bloods. She's got the gods and pures both trying to kill her and her friends. It was amazing to see how much growth Alex has gone through and how much she's changed as a character. She's really grown and matured, but she's still snarky and kickass at the same time. 

I can't say much without spoilers, but overall this book was f'n awesome! I loved every single second of it and have loved every single second of this series! I recommend this to anyone who loves YA books with an awesome plot, kick ass character and hilarious dialogue!

White Hot Kiss by Jennifer L. Armentrout

One kiss could be the last 

Seventeen-year-old Layla just wants to be normal. But with a kiss that kills anything with a soul, she's anything but normal. Half demon, half gargoyle, Layla has abilities no one else possesses. 

Raised among the Wardens—a race of gargoyles tasked with hunting demons and keeping humanity safe—Layla tries to fit in, but that means hiding her own dark side from those she loves the most. Especially Zayne, the swoon-worthy, incredibly gorgeous and completely off-limits Warden she's crushed on since forever. 

Then she meets Roth—a tattooed, sinfully hot demon who claims to know all her secrets. Layla knows she should stay away, but she's not sure she wants to—especially when that whole no-kissing thing isn't an issue, considering Roth has no soul. 

But when Layla discovers she's the reason for the violent demon uprising, trusting Roth could not only ruin her chances with Zayne…it could brand her a traitor to her family. Worse yet, it could become a one-way ticket to the end of the world.




Some teasers!

"Free will isn't bullshit, Roth."
He stopped suddenly in front of me and our eyes locked. "Say it again."
I frowned. "Say what?"
"My name."
"Roth...?"
The dimples appeared again. "Did you know that was the first time you've used my name? I've decided I quite like hearing you say it."


"You undo me. You have no idea how you undo me." 




My Thoughts:

I will admit, this wasn't my favorite Jennifer L. Armentrout book, but I did still really enjoy it! I have to say, Jennifer L. Armentrout really knows how to write hot guys and great romance.

I love Jennifer Armentrout's dialogue between characters. She always writes hilarious, witty banter that I just love! Roth was definitely my favorite out of the love-triangle in this book. I didn't hate Zayne, but I didn't exactly like him either. I didn't really understand Layla's feelings for him, either. It seemed to me like he kept a lot of things from her and she also kept things from him, so I didn't see why she thought she loved him. But with Roth she was able to be her whole-self, she didn't have to hide her demon half from him like she had to around Zayne. Roth understood her more and accepted both halves of her, he didn't make her hate her other half of herself. I also love Roth's snake, Bambi!

I didn't really connect with Layla or particularly like her that much. I'm used to Jennifer L. Armentrout's characters being strong, independent, sassy, take-shit-from-nobody heroines, but Layla wasn't really like that. The Warden's would disrespect her and treat her like shit and she just took it, saying in her mind they were the only family she had but in reality they're never going to accept her for who she really is, or what she really is.

I found it a little hard to get fully immersed into this story and fully get sucked into it. It took me a while longer to get through this book than it should have for me. I was kind of frustrated and annoyed by the love-triangle, but I'm not a huge fan of love-triangles in general. I felt like Layla's feelings for both Roth and Zayne would enter into the plot at unnecessary times. Her feelings for Zayne also kind of frustrated me just because I couldn't connect with her relationship with him or understand why she thought she felt so strongly about him.

I did really love the setting of this book and the world. I love Jennifer Armentrout's fast-paced writing style and learning about the history and everything behind Warden's and demons. I have never read a book about gargoyles and demons, so this was definitely new and interesting for me, I really did love it! There were a lot of crazy plot twists in this book, and a lot of crazy things just going on in general.

Oh my god, the ending of this book... I almost cried. I teared up a little. Freakin' cliffhangers! It broke my heart.

I think this book is a must read for everyone! It was fast-paced and filled with extra hot demons and gargoyles! I really enjoyed it and can't wait for the sequel, Stone Cold Touch!

Rating: 4/5 Stars!

Deity (Covenant #3) by Jennifer L. Arementrout

“History is on repeat, and things didn’t go so well the last time. “

Alexandria isn’t sure she’s going to make it to her eighteenth birthday–to her Awakening. A long-forgotten, fanatical order is out to kill her, and if the Council ever discovers what she did in the Catskills, she’s a goner… and so is Aiden.

If that’s not freaky enough, whenever Alex and Seth spend time “training”–which really is just Seth’s code word for some up-close and personal one-on-one time–she ends up with another mark of the Apollyon, which brings her one step closer to Awakening ahead of schedule. Awesome.

But as her birthday draws near, her entire world shatters with a startling revelation and she’s caught between love and Fate. One will do anything to protect her. One has been lying to her since the beginning. Once the gods have revealed themselves, unleashing their wrath, lives will be irrevocably changed… and destroyed.

Those left standing will discover if love is truly greater than Fate…

My Thoughts: *Contains spoilers from the previous books*

This series seriously only just gets better and better with each book I read. This one is most definitely my favorite of this series, and considering how much I loved the other books, you can imagine how good this one was.

The thing I loved the most about this book was there was a lot more Aiden! I love Aiden St.Delphi so much, my love for him just grows and grows with every book I read of him. This book was unputdownable, it was so fast-paced and action packed, there was always something happening, always something going on and I loved it! 

Alex has gone through a lot of character development and she has really come a long way since the first book, Half-Blood. She's still a super kick-ass heroine but she's matured a lot more and I find her to be a really admirable character. She's definitely one of my favorite heroins. She is such a strong character, especially with how much she's gone through and how much she has to go through every single day. 

We see a lot more of both Seth and Aiden in Deity. We get to see a softer side to Aiden and I loved finding out more about him and his backstory to how he chose to become a Sentinel. We get to see that Aiden is a more deeper and complex character than he seems to be, which of course, just made me love him even more than before. I am anxiously awaiting for him and Alex to get their happy ending, I want them both to be happy together so bad. I think they're perfect together and they both deserve their happy ending. 

Now, Seth pissed me off a lot in this book. Like, a lot. I think he's a great character, he's kick-ass and hilarious, but he was a huge douche in this book, to be honest. I understand why he was being one, and you'll see why in the book but he still frustrated me and got on my nerves a lot. I still don't think Alex and him would work well together because all they have together is desire and that's all. You do get to see more of Seth's backstory in Deity also. Even though Seth pissed me off in this book I still also want to see him get his happy ending. 

Things get seriously crazy in this book! So many things happened in this book and there were so many insane twists that I didn't see coming! Nobody is trustworthy in this book and no one is who they say are. 

Overall, Deity is my favorite of this series and it was fantastic! Things just get crazier and crazier, so much happens and there's so many twists. I couldn't put this book down, I stayed up until 2am finishing it, but it was completely worth it! If you haven't read this series yet, do it now!

Pure (Covenant #2) by Jennifer L. Armentrout

There is need. And then there is Fate.

Being destined to become some kind of supernatural electrical outlet isn’t exactly awesome–especially when Alexandria’s “other half” is everywhere she goes. Seth’s in her training room, outside her classes, and keeps showing up in her bedroom–so not cool. Their connection does have some benefits, like staving off her nightmares of the tragic showdown with her mother, but it has no effect on what Alex feels for the forbidden, pure-blooded Aiden. Or what he will do–and sacrifice–for her.

When daimons infiltrate the Covenants and attack students, the gods send furies–lesser gods determined to eradicate any threat to the Covenants and to the gods, and that includes the Apollyon and Alex. And if that and hordes of aether-sucking monsters didn’t blow bad enough, a mysterious threat seems willing to do anything to neutralize Seth, even if that means forcing Alex into servitude or killing her.

When the gods are involved, some decisions can never, ever be undone.

My Thoughts: *will contain spoilers from Half-Blood!*

This series is quickly becoming one of my favorites! I just love how fast paced and action packed these books are, and the characters are all awesome! We got to see a lot more of Seth in this book and a little less Aiden, but I am still team Aiden all the way. Aiden is sweet, sensitive and still badass, whereas Seth is cocky, sometimes arrogant and completely badass. We see a different side to Aiden in this one, and I feel for him a lot more in this book. It's very clear he still has strong feelings for Alex but can't act on them due to him being a Pure and her being a Half-Blood, they could both get in a lot of shit if he does act on them. I feel so bad for both Alex and Aiden because they both want to be with each other but they can't be. Aiden is trying to protect Alex by not being with her, but you can tell she's still hurt by it. The entire book I just wanted to say 'screw the council' and shove Alex and Aiden together.

I didn't really feel much between Seth and Alex. I mean, they have this connection, sure, but Alex really only ever feels anything for him when they're touching and no matter how much Seth says it isn't from the connection, I just know that it is. Alex is thinking about Aiden constantly, whether they're touching or not, whereas Alex only ever thinks of Seth that way when their connection thing is involved.


Alex always managed to find trouble somehow which really creates the fast-paced, crazy story. I love how everything she does ends her up in trouble, even unintentionally. It seems like she can never take control of her own life and nothing ever goes the way she wants it to, or the way she plans it. There is just so many twists in these books, so many things happen that I never saw coming.

Overall, Pure is an amazing sequel that answered a lot of the questions I had from Half-Blood, but also left me with a lot more. This story is fast-paced, crazy, hilarious and awesome! There are so many surprises in this book, it'll make you gasp out loud! If you haven't started this series yet, you better get on that!

Rating: 4.5/5 Stars!

Half-Blood by Jennifer L. Armentrout

Summary: The Hematoi descend from the unions of gods and mortals, and the children of two Hematoi pure bloods have godlike powers. Children of Hematoi and mortals--well, not so much. Half-bloods only have two options: become trained Sentinels who hunt and kill daimons or become servants in the homes of the pures. Seventeen-year-old Alexandria would rather risk her life fighting than waste it scrubbing toilets, but she may end up slumming it anyway. There are several rules that students at the Covenant must follow. 
Alex has problems with them all, but especially rule #1:Relationships between pures and halfs are forbidden. Unfortunately, she's crushing hard on the totally hot pure-blood Aiden. But falling for Aiden isn't her biggest problem--staying alive long enough to graduate the Covenant and become a Sentinel is. If she fails in her duty, she faces a future worse than death or slavery: being turned into a daimon, and being hunted by Aiden. And that would kind of suck.


My Thoughts: 

So, after rereading the Lux series by Jennifer L. Armentrout I was still in the mood for her fast paced, witty, kick ass stories, so I decided to pick this series up! This book reminded me a lot of Vampire Academy, but I loved Vampire Academy and haven't read it in a few years, so I really loved that!

This book was really awesome, although Jennifer L. Armentrout wrote it soI didn't expect anything less! It had the perfect mix of fighting, romance, wit, humour and fantastic characters! Plus, Greek gods! This book is just awesomeness all around. It was fast-paced, action packed and the entire time I was reading it, I just did not want to put it down! 

I left like Alex was really easy to relate to and I loved her as the main character. When it comes to boys and her emotions she's just a normal teenage girl, and I loved that. I really liked how determined she was to keep her emotions hidden and pretend she wasn't hurting on the inside even though she was because it just showed how determined she was to become a Sentinel, I really admire her determination. Another character I loved was Aiden. I think he is most definitely not in my top favorite book boyfriends. He was so sweet, caring and also a badass all at the same time. Even though Alex tried to hide how she was really feeling inside he could still tell she wasn't fine, no matter how many times he told her she was. 

Overall, Half-Blood is an amazing novel that you should most definitely read! It's fast-paced, action packed, hilarious, with just a smidge of romance and has kick-ass characters! What more could you want? Seriously, read it!

Obsidian by Jennifer L. Armentrout

Goodreads Summary: Starting over sucks.

When we moved to West Virginia right before my senior year, I'd pretty much resigned myself to thick accents, dodgy internet access, and a whole lot of boring.... until I spotted my hot neighbor, with his looming height and eerie green eyes. Things were looking up.

And then he opened his mouth.

Daemon is infuriating. Arrogant. Stab-worthy. We do not get along. At all. But when a stranger attacks me and Daemon literally freezes time with a wave of his hand, well, something...unexpected happens. 

The hot alien living next door marks me.

You heard me. Alien. Turns out Daemon and his sister have a galaxy of enemies wanting to steal their abilities, and Daemon's touch has me lit up like the Vegas Strip. The only way I'm getting out of this alive is by sticking close to Daemon until my alien mojo fades. 

If I don't kill him first, that is.

My Thoughts:

The first time I read this was a little over a year ago and I instantly fell in love with it and all the characters. I was in the mood for a fun, entertaining book with lots of wit and humour, but also with a little romance and mystery so I picked this up again! 

I loved this as much as I did the first time. I just loved getting back into this world Jennifer Armentrout has created. The main character, Katy, is one of my favorite characters. She's hilarious, loves blogging, reading books, and can stick up for herself! I'll admit at some points in the book she did things and I was all 'you're so going to get in trouble for that' but I still loved her character! I totally loved that she was a blogger and loved to read, it made it a lot easier to connect and relate to her. 

Daemon Black, the love interest in this series, is totally swoon worthy. Definitely one of my top favorite book boyfriends. He's a gorgeous douche-bag with sweet moments and you just can't help but fall in love with him. I absolutely love the interactions between Katy and Daemon, it's hilarious. There were some points where Daemon's douche-bagness went a little too far but Katy always stood up for herself and never let him just walk all over her which I loved. 

Even though this series is about aliens, The Luxen, it isn't a very sci-fi novel, I'd say it's more paranormal. I really liked the mystery part of this novel and trying to figure out what's going on with everything and just learning more about the Luxen's and everything in general. 

I definitely recommend this to lovers of YA Paranormal Romance! It's a very addicting, entertaining and hilarious read that will make you want to stay up all night to finish reading it, but it will be worth it in the morning! 

My Rating: 5/5 stars!
