I Read A Little. I Read A Lot.

     As an actress, the hardest thing thing for me to do is chose my favorite movie. But when I am asked what my favorite book is, I can tell you it is... Not something I can really answer. There was a time in my life where all I did was read. Of course all of that reading I did was done on two books, but it is still a hard choice. So after going back and forth and flipping a coin, twice, I have decided that my favorite book is Evermore by Alyson Noël.

     A young sixteen-year-old girl by the name of Ever Bloom, whom after being in a car accident, begins to see people's auras, can know everything about someone's past by touching them, and can hear people's thoughts, comes to a unique experience when a beyond perfect (immortal) teenage boy, Damen Auguste, comes to her school and turns her world upside down. Now, I don't want to ruin the book, but he loves her, some other evil chick loves him, and Ever kills that chick. Also Ever is kind of an orphan, but can see her dead sister's spirit and can talk to her. She also has only two friends, and one of them is goth and the other is gay.

     I feel that I can relate strongly to this book because I too can hear people's thoughts and kill evil girls who try to take my soulmate. But in all seriousness, I feel that I like this book because I feel that all of us teenagers have had that time in out lives where we feel unsocial, and that we don't fit in, and that is all that Ever represents. She avoids contact with everyone she can, but that is not how she was all of her life. Ever used to be a cheerleader with lots of friends and had her life figured out, but after losing her whole family to a car crash, all of that changed. That reminds me of when I moved to the United States. It was like I was in  a whole new world (a new fantastic point of view, no one to tells us no, or where to go...)

     This is book was clearly written for a young adult audience, as are all of this author's books. No grown man expects to read read about Ever and Damen's romance and struggles with immortality. But if you are a grown man wanting to read this book, knock yourself out man.

     In the end, all I can tell you is that this is a book for teenager that deals with teenage stuff, written in a way that makes it easy for teenagers to understand and be captivated to, and...and...just read it. Or don't. I don't care. I like the book. And it has a sequel... So just don it.
