Review: The Darkest Star

The Darkest Star The Darkest Star by Jennifer L. Armentrout
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Evie Dasher just wanted to go out with her friend and relax for a change. When the club they are at gets raided, she is whisked into the back by Luc and her life is changed forever. Evie believes that Luc is a Luxen, an alien race that had invaded earth, but Luc claims he isn’t. Although Evie doesn’t know what Luc really is, she cannot deny the attraction she feels towards him. What of Evie’s knowledge is true and what is a lie? How will Evie react when her world is turned upside down?

The Darkest Star is the first book in the Origin series. Armentrout doesn’t waste time building up to the story. She takes readers deep inside the story in the first chapter and then explores the deeper truths about the characters along the way. There is a little bit of romance that is included in the story and a lot of time thinking about the shape of the boys’ bodies. I’m not sure this is relevant to the overall story and I began to feel like they were forced into the pages. This book does leave a lot of unanswered questions, so Armentrout has a newly created world with many more stories for the making.
