I Give This Book 4 Stars! (see below)
So, I really should have written my review when I read this book . You notice I give it 4 stars, but that's because it's what I rated it on goodreads. But, I made the mistake of reading some other reviews before I wrote my own. And now, I've forgotten what I liked about it. All I can see are the issues that others pointed out. So, I'm tempted to go back and give it 3 stars. I did like it. The plot was interesting and suspenseful at times. The introduction of Jude and why he was there completely caught me off guard. I know for sure that when I finished reading it the twins really annoyed me. But, now all I can think of is the lack of development in Ever and Damon's relationship. We seem to still be in the same place we were in book one. I can't help but notice Ever's glaring faults. Bad choice after bad choice do not make for an interesting series. At some the main character has to evolve a little. But, I will continue on. But at this point in the series, I'm glad it's the library buying them and not me...
