Review Detail

Reader reviewed by Julie H.

Ever since a car accident killed Ever's family, she can see auras around people and hear way too many of their thoughts. She moves from Oregon to California to live with her aunt and starts a new highschool. Her first and only friends are a couple of other fringe kids. Ever fits right in as she covers herself in hoodies and her ipod earphones to dull the incessant noise in her head. Of course one day, a handsome and mysterious new student, Damen, arrives at school. He sits next to Ever in class and she notices the noise in her head subsides. Damen is obviously hiding some secrets of his own. I can understand the wide variety of views about this story, it comes off as very Twilight-y at times. But, I liked the story well enough to continue the series. Here's hoping there will be a little less Twilight and a little more Highlander in the next installment.
