I really, really wanted to love this book. But I didn't. I liked the
main character, Ever and I loved her connection to her little sister,
Riley. However, I wasn't exactly drawn to the story. First of fall -
the mind reading thing bore a very similar resemblance to the character
of Sookie Stackhouse. Both characters are overwhelmed with other
peoples thoughts and for some inexplicable reason, they cannot hear
there love interests thoughts - which draws them together. Also, I
didn't particularly like Damen. Which is a problem, because he is
suppose to be the love interest. However, my biggest problem with this
book was the editing. I found tons and tons of grammatical errors and
just other basic errors. I don't know if they were rushing to get this
book ton and shoved into the twilight market or what, but I think
someone could have taken more time editing the book. There are lots of
repeated words and one that stands out in my mind was on the first or
second page when Ever was thinking about her family. Buttercup, the
yellow lab (which I paid particular attention to because I have a
yellow lab named Buttercup), switches genders within a paragraph. It
really bothers me when books have lots of errors, because they feel
incomplete, rushed and undeveloped.
