haramis 's review for:

Everneath by Brodi Ashton
3.0

2.5/5, rounded up. This was a problematic book for me. It had some interesting ideas, but it was too long. Also, I felt a desperate need to throttle Nikki. Can you imagine knowing, for dead certain, that you only have six months left on Earth. Would you spend that time making cow-eyes at your ex-boyfriend while sitting in high school? Perish the thought. Jack was a little milquetoast for my tastes, which makes me wonder if I was supposed to find Cole more appealing. Blah. I liked the overall framework of the story, but it was so packed with the standard angst-filled paranormal teenage romance crap, that it was an utter drag to read. I'm slightly curious to see what happens next, but not so much so that I would be willing to commit to round 2 of this. Time to go spoil myself on reviews.

I listened to the audiobook, and the narration was tragic. Ms. Rubinate reads the book in a flat monotone. I happened to be listening to a bit of this without headphones, and my husband started snickering almost immediately because the reading is so very flat. It was bad enough that I intend to avoid any future narration from this performer.
