Evermore is the first book in the incomplete series call The Immortals written by Alyson Noel. It is written for teenager and young adult who like the fantasy or romance type of book. This book has won a lot of award and is currently the one of the most favourite series.
Ever Bloom - the blond, pretty and used-to-be-popular protagonist of the story - had just lost her family in a tragic car accident. She moved to Laguna Cove to live with her aunt Sabine. After the accident she starts seeing aura, here thoughts and learn about people's life story just by touching them. She hated her new life and the only thing she looked forward to is the little visits from her dead sister, Riley. She tries to shut herself out by the hoodie, baggy jeans and ipod combo and it did work to almost everyone. Almost, but not to a new kid call Damen who is so handsome, polite, good at everything and always seems to be able to know what she is thinking. No sooner they fell in love with each other. But, Damen is not who he seems to be, he is so mysterious, powerful enough to silence the random noises and might even be dangerous. Through Damen, Ever discover her true self, is able to explain why she can do what she can, about the girl Drina and the secret that Ever, Damen, Drina, and probably very few other on the Earth plane share, the secret of...the immortals.
While reading through the book, I notice that the story line is quite similar to Twilight by Stephanie Meyer. However, there more mysteries and twists and pieces of jigsaw missing or seem irrelevant at a point and it build up a lot more tension than in Twilight and this is why I like it. Another thing that this book seems to beat Twilight is that the female protagonist doesn't spend half of her time describing the look and attraction that the male protagonist hold. I'd like to rate this book 10/10.
