After a horrible accident claims the lives of her family, sixteen-year-old Ever Bloom can see people's auras, hear their thoughts, and know someone's entire life story by touching them. Going out of her way to avoid human contact to suppress her abilities, she has been branded a freak at her new high school — but everything changes when she meets Damen Auguste. Damen is gorgeous, exotic and wealthy. He's the only one who can silence the noise and random energy in her head - wiedling a magic so intense, it's as though he can peer 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. And she has no idea just who he really is - or what he is. The only thing she knows to be true is that she's falling deeply and helplessly in love with him.
Pro's/Con's
I got this one as a present from a friend of mine. We saw it lying around at a shop and she said that the book was awesome and that I had to read it. I thought ''heck why not'' and then she bought if for me as a present.
I started with it, expecting something simple and kind of a ''been there, read that, got the book on my shelf'' type of book but it actually surprised me. The story might not be the type that you will never forget or that you will never read in another book but it was interesting. When was reading it and I looked up it was three hours later and my dad was mad because I didn't came downstairs for dinner. That's the type of story that it is, you start reading it and you can't get out of it until someone either tickles you or until you have finished the book. The story grabs you right away and the characters are very interesting.
The reason why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is that I didn't really see the growing relationship between Ever and Damen and Ever was a bit of a pain in the ass sometimes. I would think that she would have been a lot nicer to Riley after everything that happened! Because of that I sometimes had a bit of a hard time to feel compassion for Ever.
Recommend it?
I guess that I do, as long as you don't expect fireworks this book won't let you down. The book is fine, it grabs your attention but it has some lesser points for me, like Ever, which is sad because she is the main character. Pick it up on one of your free days and I think that you will be entertained for a couple of hours.
