I have recently read the book Evermore by Alyson Noel. This book has 306 pages and the genre is fantasy. In this book a girl named Ever looses her parents, her little sister, and her dog in a car crash. Ever since the accident Ever has been able to hear other people's thoughts, see their auras, and she can also see her dead little sister. She even talks to her all the time! After the accident, Ever had to move in with her aunt who lives in California. A few years later, on the first day of school, a new kid arrives named Damen. He seems to be amazing at everything, from history to art. The only strange thing about him is he doesn't seem to have an aura, and Ever can't seem to read his thoughts. For some reason he seems to like Ever, even thought she is know as a freak at her school along with her two friends Miles and Haven. Ever begins to like Damen, but she won't admit it. Then along comes some girl named Drina. Drina doesn't seem to have an aura just like Damen. For some reason, Drina seems to not like Ever. Also all of a sudden, Ever's friend Haven starts wanting to hang out with Drina. I really liked this book. It kept me wanting to keep turning the page because the characters are so unique, and I felt like I was experiencing everything that the main character, Ever, was. I think people can connect to this book because it tells how even if something terrible happens to you, it won't be the end of the world. Here's a passage that will surely make you want to read this book. (page 238)
I push the hair out of my eyes and race blindly through thefog, hoping to locate the trail, get back to where I started. My
lungs threatening to explode in my chest, as my flip-flops breakand abandon my feet, but I still run. Running as the sharp coldrocks slice into my soles.Running as a searing hot pain burns ahole through my ribs. Running past trees whose sharp, unadorned
branches snatch at my jacket and rip it right off me. Running formy life-even thoughI'm not surre it's worth living.
