When I started this book, I expected to be completely unimpressed - it is, after all, from That Era of YA Where Love Triangles and Cheesy Storylines Prevail. And you know what? It's not a masterpiece, it really isn't. But it also just still manages to be interesting enough that I want to know the rest of the story.

Rossi makes bold choices in Through the Ever Night with character and love story treatment that you just don't see in other YA dystopian trilogies from this era. It keeps the book interesting even when some of the plot complications are solved too easily. You just can't trust the book to be entirely predictable, and I respect that.

Through the Ever Night may not be a re-read book for me, but Rossi has me just hooked enough to want to see this story through to it's conclusion.
