Katy and Daemon's lives are far from ordinary, scarred by the trials they endured together. However, when Katy's nightmares resurface, she must confront her darkest secrets and share them with Daemon. Consumed by anger, Daemon becomes determined to protect their family at all costs.
So I'm re-reading the Lux series by JLA and decided I needed to write this.
Chapter 1 takes place during the same time as the epilogue in Opposition in the Lux Series. Chapter 2 takes place during The Brightest Night in the Origin Series. A warning though: If you DID NOT read THE ORIGIN SERIES, DO NOT READ CHAPTER 2 UNLESS YOU WANT TO BE HELLA SPOILED!

It’s not easy talking about Katy without spoilers, so be prepared for it. Spoilers ahead. If you have not read any of the books in the Lux saga, or you only read Obsidian than this is not for you, unless you’re here because you want to know what happens from book 3 onwards, which is around the time that Katy starting to be cooler. 📖 I’ll start now. ⤵️ Continue reading Katy Swartz

2023 US Cyclocross National Championship Recap
The 2023 US Cyclocross National Championships returned to Joe Creason Park in Louisville, Kentucky, where Bikeflights Ambassadors Clara Honsinger and Eric Brunner won the elite races in dominant fashion this past weekend. By the end of what was nearly a full week of the best American cyclocrossers going head-to-head, a total of five Bikeflights Ambassadors and one staff member would each earn a national championship jersey and gold medal.
Tumblr media
The week started out dry and warm but eventually turned wet, muddy and cold, producing classic cyclocross conditions that made the races exciting to watch. 
Honsinger Dominates Elite Women's Race
Clara Honsinger entered the elite women's race as both the defending champion and the favorite, and she lived up to all the hype. Starting strong, Honsinger quickly established a comfortable lead, then maintained a steady pace throughout the race. By winning, Honosinger secured her fourth consecutive cyclocross national title and added another piece of gold to her already impressive collection.
Results
1. Clara Honsinger (Team S&M CX)
2. Katie Clouse (Steve Tilford Foundation Racing)
3. Raylyn Nuss (Steve Tilford Foundation Racing)
Tumblr media
Brunner Overcomes Adversity To Defend Elite Men's Title 
The elite men's race was equally thrilling with four riders, including Eric Brunner, going pedal for pedal for much of the race. After suffering a mechanical and appearing to possibly be out of contention for the win, he chased back to the front, Brunner proved to be the strongest and earned his second national title.
Results
1. Eric Brunner (WTB Pivot)
2. Andrew Strohmeyer (CXD Trek Bikes)
3. Scott Funston (WTB Pivot Endurance)

Bikeflights Ambassadors Win Cyclocross National Titles
In addition to Honsinger and Brunner both taking victory their respective events, three other  Bikeflights Ambassadors from the Bear National CX Team also earned national titles: 
Kira Mullins (Junior women 15-16)
Vida Lopez de Sam Roman (Junior Women 17-18)
Jack Spranger (Under 23 men)

After a full season of racing gravel and mountain bikes, Bikeflights Staff Member Kerry “Kenny” Werner kicked the dust off his cyclocross bike and won the single speed men’s category with a sprint finish. 
Tumblr media

Last but not least, we’d like to shout out to Ambassador Caleb Swartz, who amazingly raced his way to 11th place in the elite men’s race after crashing just after the start. What a comeback! 
Congratulations to everyone who braved the weather and put in their best effort during an exciting week of ‘cross action in Louisville. We can’t wait to see how many of these riders do as they make their way over to Europe to finish off the ‘cross season!

Obsidiana / Jennifer L. Armentrout
Tumblr media
Nunca tive muito interesse em fazer resenha de livros, mas este livro me deu vontade e é por isso que iniciarei por ele.
Obsidiana é o primeiro livro da Saga Lux categorizada como Romance Sobrenatural.
(Não estou no nicho dos romances, tenho mais interesse por ficção científica e fantasia, e minha curiosidade em lê-lo foi porque se tratava de um livro de alienígenas \o/ )
Sinopse
Katy é uma jovem da Flórida que se muda no último ano colegial para West Virginia, onde conhece seus vizinhos – Dee e Daemon – gêmeos da mesma idade e muito misteriosos. Essa amizade vai dispersar qualquer monotonia que ela achava que existiria com a mudança.
Comentários Pessoais
É inevitável comparar esse romance com a Saga Crepúsculo. Daemon é um misto de Edward e Jacob Black (inclusive tem o mesmo sobrenome do último, enquanto a protagonista tem o sobrenome parecido com o da Bela: Swartz). Daemon brilha como Edward e é quente como Jacob, porém é um bad boy. Em contrapartida, Katy é completamente diferente da Bela: é mais forte, mais decidida, não é falsa com as amigas (kkkkkkkk – a personalidade da Bela me incomodava demais) e na hora H pensa em todos e não só no seu (quase) par romântico. Aqui também se repete alguns outros elementos: a garota linda, da mesma espécie sobrenatural, interessada do garotão e que ele não dá bola e o garoto potencialmente estuprador… e brigas sangrentas e mortes. Entretanto, Obsidiana se revela mais interessante por ser mais engraçado, mais jovial, e uma certa veracidade no quesito “ser sobrenatural” (Daemon tem uma fala em que expõe que é mais fácil se pensar em alienígenas – pela quantidade de planetas e do nosso desconhecimento do universo – do que em vampiros e lobisomens).
Não é um grande clássico da literatura mundial, não é um deep sci-fi (as explicações sobre a distância do planeta, o tempo que levaram pra chegar aqui, a relação deles com o latim – era o idioma deles? – e entretanto ainda estarem à mercê do Governo da Terra, não convencem). Mas é divertido, e a protagonista – apesar dos momentos em que cai em tentação – é hilária e o final é sensacional.
Próximos livros da saga: Ônix e Opala.

Katy: You’ve been awake a while? So you just laid there and let me stare at you like a creeper?
Daemon: Pretty much, Kitten. I figured I’d let you get your fill, but then you kissed me and, well, I like to be a little more involved in that.
