Blue Moon by Alyson Noel

Eager to learn everything she can about her new abilities as an Immortal, Ever turns to her beloved Damen to show her the way. But just as her powers are increasing, Damen’s are waning.  In an attempt to save him, Ever travels to the magical dimension of Summerland, where she learns the secrets of Damen’s tortured past; a past which he has always kept hidden from her. But in her quest to cure Damen, Ever discovers an ancient text that details the workings of time. Now Ever must choose between turning back the past and saving her family from the accident that claimed their lives—or staying in the present and saving Damen, who grows sicker every day... (Summary taken from goodreads)

After reading Evermore, I had high expectations for Blue Moon. Thankfully, I wasn’t disappointed. Just like with Evermore, this book had me hooked from the start. I could not put it down! It was one of those books that you tell yourself you’ll one read one more chapter and then you realize twenty minutes later that you’ve read seven more. Now, not everyone likes this series, but I for one love it!
            The characters were amazing as usual. I really loved how Noel introduced a new character into the mix: Roman. He was so mysterious, sort of like Damen. I wasn’t sure how to feel about him. I liked him sometimes and hated him others. Damen, as always, stole my heart once again. Though, I still really hate how hot and cold he can be, I can’t help but love him. I really enjoyed Ever in this book. She seemed to be breaking out of her shell more. In the first one, she kept to herself so much, but in this one she definitely burst out a bit more. It was a nice change.
            The storyline itself was really creative. I don’t know how she does it, but Noel crammed so much into that book! There is never a dull moment. It’s just this string of events that gets you hooked. The ending was great! Though, I was wicked mad! There was a huge twist! Which, of course, I’m not going to tell you about :)
            I just got the third one in the series Shadowland, so I’m very excited. I need to know what happens next! If you enjoyed Evermore, then definitely read Blue Moon. You won’t be disappointed. If you haven’t started this series, then what are you waiting for?! Check it out! If you read this book or enjoyed the review, be sure to let me know! :)
