Evermore

The Bookworm says... Yes! Evermore by Alyson Noël holds a charm that lasts forever. A horrible accident claims her mother and father and her dog, leaves her sister trapped in an "in between", and leaves Ever with the ability to read minds and see auras. She abandons her fashionable clothes and popular life in Oregon for sweatshirts and sweats and around two friends in California. She lives locked into headphones, until Damen comes along. Damen Auguste is mysterious and beautiful and he turns Ever's world upside down. She might not be the only one with supernatural abilities. 

Evermore is an excellent first book of Alyson Noël's Immortal series. I read this a few years ago, but it just gets better. The charm isn't lost, no matter how much later. The story is immortal, if you will. 

"I guess by now I should know enough about loss to realize that you never really stop missing someone- you just learn to live around the huge gaping hole of their absence."

Radiance

The Bookworm says...maybe. Radiance by Alyson Noël was an okay book. It is the first book in the spinoff series from "Immortal Series" also by Alyson Noël-Evermore is number one in "The Immortals". Riley and Buttercup area cross the bridge, and are starting school There. Riley gets her assignment as Soul Catcher. Her job will be to travel back to earth, and encourage lost souls, like ghosts, to cross the bridge. Her first soul she is assigned is Radiant Boy. There have been many other Soul Catchers that had failed with Radiant Boy. Will Riley succeed. She also must go along with her guide, Bodhi, to watch his mission. Once they both are complete, she is promised a trip to London, and a flying lesson. Will she make it to her lesson? Radiance is the first of a series, and you MUST read the "Immortal" series first. This book was very interesting, and exciting to read. I do not think I will finish the series, because it didn't quite hook me.
