This book was unique, in a good way! The plot was interesting as the world of Everlost. I enjoyed it a lot more than I thought I was going to being as it's a book intended for middle-schoolers. I liked the character development, if I didn't particularly care for some of the characters (looking at you, Allie). The beginning was a tad slow for me, even with the jarring way we are thrown, along with our two main protagonists (Allie and Nick), into the story. It was like the first chapter or so was very strong and then it just kind of lagged. Thankfully, the action picked back up near the middle and it was a thrill from there on out. I really enjoyed this book and I think I will be continuing this series. After that ending, I need to know what happens!

Another entry in the Teenage Afterlife genre. The kids die, they get sent to a world that's imagined according to precise rules about what they can and can't do, they figure stuff out, come to terms with death, etc.

Both very complex and extremely simple. It's an interesting tale of a type of purgatory populated by Lost Boys and Lord of Flies style children -- and our flawed, but basically good, protagonists. There is a definite ending point to the book, but it mostly sets up a much more epic story for our protagonists to embark into.

I got about half way done with this book and didn’t really care what happened next so I decided to give it up. There are to many other books waiting to be read to force myself to finish this one.

I had a really hard time getting into this book, the first half was a bit boring but with the world built and the rules set, the second half left me wanting more. I will definitely read the sequel to see what happens. (Allie is by far is my favorite character)
