Evermore by Alyson Noël

Reading level: Young Adult
Paperback: 320 pages
Publisher: St. Martin's Griffin
Since a horrible accident claimed the lives of her family, Ever can see auras, hear people's thoughts, and know a person's entire life story by touch. Going out of her way to avoid human contact and suppress her abilities has branded her as a freak at her new high school—but everything changes when she meets Damen. Damen Auguste is gorgeous, exotic and wealthy. He's the only one who can silence the noise and random energy in her head—wielding a magic so intense, it's as though he can see straight into her soul. As Ever is drawn deeper into his enticing world of secrets and mystery, she's left with more questions than answers. She has no idea just who he really is—or what he is. The only thing she knows to be true is she's falling deeply and helplessly in love with him.
Review
I wanted to read this book so badly!
The plot is good and consistent. In the firsts chaters Ever shows us her past but it isn't until we get deep into the story that we discover what really happened to and why Ever thinks she is guilty of the death of her family.
Ever is a character I like a lot. On the surface she is a lonely person who doesn't want to be noticed, always hidding behind hoods, listening to her ipod and not talking very much, and she wants it to be like this because she thinks that is what she deserves for surviving when her family didn't, but in the inside she really wants to be normal, to have fun like she used to, to at least, be normal for one day, She wants to be saved.
So when she meets Damen she get confused because with him she can be like she was before all got wrong, but she doesn't know if it is ok for her to be happy.
Damen is a nice and mysterious. I would have loved to get to know more about him.
I kept wondering all time about what would he be and I arrived to the same conclusion as Ever, all made sense.
One of the characters I liked most of this book was Miles. Ever's friend was very hilarious. I laughed a lot with
him and his unconcern.
And Riley. She's so cute acting like a big sis for Ever.
Overall: This book was fantastic, I loved reading it and I can't wait until the sequel, New Moon, comes out.
Alyson Noël has done a good job.
I've just found about this in Alyson's web:
Dramatic rights have been sold to Spring Creek Productions and Warner Horizon for a TV series!
That's so cool!
