This review contains Spoilers.
Evermore isnt bad to start off with, though not amazing either, as it smacks with similarities to other stories, most notably "Twilight". The author provides her own twists to the plot, but all in all it boils down to being about a young teenager and an immortal man hundreds of years her senior. I dont mind the main character, Ever, but the relationship she develops with Damen seems to be mostly of his making and influence. Not until the very end does she seem to have a say in any of it and at that point its just been driven home pretty clearly that he is 600 years old and she is a 16 year old child who has just lost her entire family and accidently murdered Damon's 'other' significant other. And its at this point that he deems her ready to choose him over every seeing her family in the afterlife.
Overall, with the exeption of Ever, the character development is weak. The story lacks originality, the writing is only ok and the most of the deeper revelations and developements within the story seem rushed and incomplete.
An easy read and more than adequate to pass your time while trudging your way through a Nyquil-induced haze...you wont really want to remember much of it anyways.
