BLUE MOON

THE IMMORTALS SERIES #2 : BLUE MOON

Alyson Noël's bestselling Immortals series has been hailed as "addictive," "beautiful," "haunting," and "mesmerizing." In Blue Moon, Ever has a chance to bring her family back from the dead - but only if she's willing to sacrifice the guy she loves more than life itself.

Just as Ever is learning everything she can about her new abilities as an immortal, initiated into the dark, seductive world by her beloved Damen, something terrible is happening to him. As Ever's powers are increasing, Damen's begin to fade after he is stricken by a mysterious illness that threatens his memory, his identity, his life.

Desperate to save him, Ever travels to the mystical dimension of Summerland, where she uncovers not only the secrets of Damen's past - the brutal, tortured history he hoped to keep hidden - but also an ancient text revealing the workings of time. With the approaching blue moon heralding her only window for travel, Ever is forced to decide between turning back the clock and saving her family from the accident that claimed them - or staying in the present and saving Damen, who grows weaker each day....

REVIEW :

NO NO NO NO NOOO, I officially hate this series. I've never not finished a book, but this one was just just.... horrible.

The writing is good but the story is just so similar to new moon (the second installment from the twilight saga, for the people who didn't already know that). I've started reading it a while ago but I can't get myself to finish it. Ever is not the worst protoganist but certainly not the best either, I officially hate her (it's not just one thing in particular, it's the whole package that anoys me)

I was warned when I read the reviews before buying this series, but ofcourse, stubborn idiot  as I am I wanted them. Well, that was the worst decision I've made in my book-history.

DO NOT PICK THIS BOOK UP, JUST DON'T. (I'm just being honest, so sorry for the people who did like it. People have different tastes and I don't mind if you do like these books)

So I'm sad to say that this book wasn't worth more than one rose

EVERMORE

THE IMMORTALS SERIES #1 : EVERMORE

The first book in Alyson Noël's extraordinary new Immortals seris. Enter an enchanting new world, where true love never dies...

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 - wieling a magis 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.

REVIEW:

I didn't really like this book. Let me begin by saying that the main character was just NOT likeable, and her name, what was Ms Noël thinking when she named her "Ever". It's such a weird name, for an even weirder girl.

Ever only thinks about herself, everything in her life before the accident was perfect, she was popular, beautiful and had a gorgeous boyfriend. Now she is totally gone crazy because she  has these powers to read peoples minds and know everything about them with a single touch. I say, "deal with it girl" but what does she do, she goes solitary. Her friends aren't helping with making this book more likeable, Haven is just an EMO and a b*tch. Damien was nice, but the whole "obsessed with Ever, and her reïncarnating" seemed a lot like the FALLEN series by Lauren Kate. And that weird red drink that immortals drink seems disgusting.

This first book was OK, but certainly not very enjoyable but OK. 

If you think this might be a good book, read it but don't continue the series (except if you think after reading this that it was A-MA-ZING, which it wasn't for me )

I'll give this book 3 roses, just because it wasn't all bad, but bad enough that I didn't like it.
