Major characters are white or not physically described. It’s got a little more content than Everless, so be sure to check the notes below especially for young or sensitive readers. It had a little bit of the feel of the movie Memento that way.Įvermore is a clean, original story with a lot to offer in terms of great characters and a high-energy plot. I loved the flashbacks that showed Jules and Caro’s early experiences with each other and the way Jules’ recovered memories changed the story. Stef because she was so scrappy and Elias for his loyalty and sense of humor. Some of the characters in Evermore really surprised me.

I kind of felt like Jules could do better in terms of a match who was her equal.

Partly, though, I just wasn’t a big fan of Roan. I enjoyed reading it-found the concept of time as currency to be really fascinating. I think I liked Evermore better than the first book in the series, which is a pretty rare occurrence for me. For it is only by piecing together the mysteries of her lives that Jules will be able to save the person who has captured her own heart in this one. Jules must delve into the stories that she now recognizes are accounts of her own past. And Caro is intent on destroying Jules, who stole her heart twelve lifetimes ago. The whole kingdom believes that Jules is responsible for the murders, and a hefty bounty has been placed on her head. But she has just learned the truth: not only are the stories true, but she herself is the Alchemist, and Caro-a woman who single-handedly murdered the Queen and Jules’s first love, Roan, in cold blood-is the Sorceress. Jules Ember was raised hearing legends of the ancient magic of the wicked Alchemist and the good Sorceress. Publishes on DecemAmazon | Barnes & Noble | Goodreads
