Everlost by Neal Shusterman
4.0
I've had this series on my TBR list for years, but for some reason kept passing it by as I thought it would be childish and silly, but I actually really enjoyed it! This year I'm determining what books I'll read next by using a random number generator on my Goodreads 'To Read' list, and this was the book that popped up, so this was the book I read!
I love life after death books. FICTION life after death books (Elsewhere by Gabrielle Zevin being one of my favorites). I was not expecting this to be such a spot-on-book for me! I enjoyed learning more about the Afterlights and the things they were and were not able to do.
Nike and Leif's plight and the sheer determination of Allie and the McGill to manipulate people and space to work in their favor made for very entertaining reading.
Overall, I really liked this book and, while I feel there were a few 'dead-spots' (see what I did there...) that were a little slow-going, I thoroughly enjoyed the story as a whole. I'm looking forward to seeing what happens in Book 2 with our new 'Villian'!
