with thanks to PanMacmillanAnother pretty cover, another YA novel about a girl who is a little different and boy who seems a little dangerous. Don't read this one too close to Hush Hush because the whole set up at school seems a little familiar. On the other hand it's another popular trend at the moment.
Like most of the Young Adult books along these lines the trickiest balance is actually the whole issue of school and family and Alyson Noel handles that well enough. The story is fairly typical, the twists in this one are the whole vamp/not vamp issue and the fact that after she came back from the dead Ever is psychic.
It's pretty well written and i reacted to the characters as I was supposed to, liked the good guys, didn't like the bad guys. Ever sister Riley is haunting her and that adds a new dimension.
Evermore is an enjoyable example of it's type, it lacked something for me that may have been because I have just read Hush Hush or maybe it just didn't connect in the same way. Hard to tell. Anyway a pretty decent read, easy to get through and frankly I still liked this a whole load more than Twilight. Judge for youselves on this one folks.

This is one I have in my wishlist. I wonder if it's so cookie cutter that I will be bored? There is such an influx of these high school true love with Vamp/weres/etc books that I wonder if this is something we can read anywhere else?
I hated Twilight, and am hoping Noel is above that class.
Thansk for sharing! Good review
It's much better than Twilight and it does have more to it, I enjoyed it but was not blown away.
i wasn't blown away either..
