Everbound (Everneath #2)

Everbound by Brodi Ashton

*Spoiler Alert if you haven't read the first book-Everneath*
It's been a very long time since I've read a book this satisfying. And what a great descriptor for this book: satisfying. It has everything you could want in a young adult fantasy book. Romance, adventure, plot twists, cliff hangers, hot guys...
And don't even get me started on the CRAZY, HUGE, MONUMENTAL, COLOSSAL, GIGANTIC plot twist at the very end after having all your emotions be stroked, stabbed, kissed, stepped on, then thrown in the oven at 350 degrees for a few hundred pages until they come out nice and crispy...Not only are the key components of young adult novels in this, but the writing itself is great. It was GENIUS of Brodi Ashton to work in Jack in this book how she did. Normally when an author makes a major character disappear for a long amount of time, the reader will fall OUT of love with them, because they have forgotten them. Even when a book may be centered around saving them. But in this one she used Nikki's memories and their necessary nature to survive in the Everneath to keep Jack in the story so we still love him, even if we start falling for Cole.
READ.THIS.BOOK. It will not disappoint.

Publisher: Harper Collins
