Review: Evermore by Alyson Noel

1 Star

I felt inclined to write a review about Evermore, considering this is the worst book I have ever read (pun intended). You would be deficient not to notice the similarity between evermore and twilight. I think the author was personally saying, "In your face Stephanie Meyer, let's see if you can write a worse love story than this." Twilight wasn't anything staggering, but at least it was somewhat entertaining. 

I read this book last year, and by now my memory of Evermore has faded. Yet, some terrible recollections remain intact. The plot. 

I introduce to you the most boring plot to be printed on paper. 

- Ever’s parents and sister die (you don't uncover how they die up until the end of the book). Why the author revealed it at the last couple of chapters... Well, only god knows. Nevertheless, I had only one thought about their death: Worst death ever. I was unable to even summon up any sad emotion for her families’ death. Imagine that. I hardly got a description of how her mom and dad were as parents. Aside, from her sister (I sort of bonded with her small sister) who was a ghost that aggravated Ever constantly. Ever was unkind to her sister, continually wanting her to go away - into the after-life, presumably because she was getting sick of her and couldn't stand the sight of her any longer. Seriously, she's your dead sister have a little more compassion, will you? 



-The mysterious guy who is just as boring as Ever comes into the book. Things start getting a lot...less interesting. After, half-way through the book you find out what Damen really is. The author attempts to pull this as a huge shock. Trust me I was shocked. At the stupidity. 

- The antagonist rolls into Evermore, and she has to be poorest antagonist ever made (pun intended). Define: She was identical to a jealous cheerleader but with super powers.*Yawn*

I will not even begin to express my feelings about the terrible characters. I loathed each character in this book. Well, besides her aunty and her dead sister. Yet, that doesn't mean they were decent developed characters.

Should I continue telling you how bad this book was , or should you discover for yourself, so you can understand my agony?

What were publishers smoking when they published this book?

Okay, fine I'm being cruel. This reasonably was not my cup of tea. Others do and still enjoy this book. I'm just not a part of that group. After all, everyone is entitled to their own opinion.
