Obsidian by Jennifer L. Armentrout

It's one of those guilty pleasure books that I have to read at least once a year. :) It's fast-paced, full of snark and bad-boy vibes. 

Katy and her mom moved from Florida to a small town in West Virginia, right next to the Black twins. The girl soon becomes Katy's best friend. The boy, Deamon however doesn't like that one bit. He thinks Katy is a bit influence and doesn't hesitate to tell her that. 

They clash all of the time, but Katy is not one to back down. Then the accident happens, and that changes everything. She finds out the trust. They clash even more, but there is also something brewing between them beneath all that anger.

It's a bit similar to Twilight :)), Deamon is all kinds of red flags, but that doesn't stop it from being totally addicting!. )

Semantic Error by J. Soori, Art by Angy

The cutest story! Sangwoo lives by the rules he set for himself. He has a schedule and routines he follows religiously. His whole day is in disarray if anything were to mess with those. He is a computer major at a university. At a group project, when none of the team mates managed to contribute to the presentation, he did it himself and cut all of the other names, making them essential fail the class.  One of those teammates was Jaeyoung, a design major who failed to graduate because of that class. It ruined his plans to continue his studies abroad and made him very, very angry.  Sangwoo is working on a video game and needs a designer. His current one no longer has time and has recommended someone else. When they meet up, it's none other than Jaeyoung.  He is very determined to get back at him, and disrupts his routine, just to make him mad. What makes Jaeyoung the most mad, is the fact that Sangwoo fails to remember him, even though they meet many times. They even end up...

i want you to want me: Adam by Mary Ann Marlowe (Most Wanted #1)

It has all the right elements that make up a great rock star romance, but this one fell flat for me. I like the chemistry between them and the setup, so the first third of the book, but the rest... didn't do much for me.  She is a biochemist, working for a company that is developing an experimental perfume. She has a stable-ish life but is not happy. Her brother on the other hand is running after his dream. She is with him one night, as he has a performance, and starts talking to a guy. He doesn't seem like much, but there is something very attractive about him.  They spend the night together. The next morning, when she talks to her girlfriend, she realizes who he is.  I had high hopes for the MCs, but I had trouble connecting with the FMC, she comes across as very judge-y and she looks down on others. Her actions made me dislike her very much.   Adam on the other hand I liked from the start. He seems to be struggling with all the things that come from a life in...
