They went out on a few dates, and Daemon thought he had the right to be jealous, when he’d had a chance to be with Katy and cocked it up so many times by being arrogant. Then, Katy set her eyes on the new guy, Blake. I wished they’d just admitted how they felt instead of faking to hate each other. I can read that once, but certainly not four times. I was quickly irritated with the circular nature of their relationship, that went a little like this: Daemon is a dick -> Katy gets angry -> Daemon apologises -> Make out session -> Regret. They had to faff about with their heart’s desire for another 500 pages before actually becoming a couple.
Whereas I thought Daemon and Katy had moved past their awkward sexual tension phase and admitted their feelings at the end of Obsidian, it turns out, I was wrong. It seems the way to move this forward was to craft the most dreaded thing within young adult fiction: the love triangle. I appreciated this more than the last book, but it was still filled with tropes set to annoy me and at 500 pages long, I contemplated not finishing. I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of content within the book, moving more towards originality. Thank goodness! This book wasn’t a replica of ‘New Moon’ as I had previously imagined.
