Does this book pass the Bechdel test? Yes. Does that mean anything? No, this book is awful.

*sigh*
I think, I know why I completely forgotten about the events of book 4 (and 5).
Ever was the worst in this one. being annoying af, making horrible decisions and not listening to anyone!
and the most decent character had to die because of this whole stupidity

 I think this is one of those series that should have stopped already. The same problems that came up in like the second or third book still haven't been solved, the author is just dragging them out and adding new ones to the mix.

A character was killed in this book - one I thought I would love to see go, but then realized that said person was one of two characters who actually keep things interesting. So now I'm just like, what can you stir up in the next book to drag this out more? Unfortunately, I know I'm going to continue this series because I feel the need to see how it ends.

Let's just hope that Ever stops acting like a child and grows up - and also, please let her leave Haven in the dust because that's a character who I would love to see leave. I could not stand her in this book.

Ugh. Ever annoys me so much. I really detest her in this one. She just got twice as annoying in this one. I quite dislike this series.

You know, Haven did have first dibs. And I'm just not buying the whole Damen-and-Ever-are-soul-mates thing. I just don't believe it. Damen went against the natural course of things by interfering with Ever and Jude's relationship in every life they have. I strongly believe that Ever and Jude are soul-mates because Haven had a point when she said that Ever is only along for the ride with Damen. I'm just not feeling it. But I can definitely see the connection when she's around Jude. While I see that they're not on the best of terms, I want it to work out between them. And honestly, I think Damen and Haven should try out a relationship. If Ever is with Jude and Haven is with Damen, it'll fix Haven and Ever's problems and it'd be a happy place to be.

I'm glad Ever finally grew a brain in the last part of the book. It's about time in my opinion. I am upset that
Spoiler Roman got killed, especially when Ever was getting through to him as a person
. On the other hand, it opens up the possibility to Ever that maybe she's just not meant to be with Damen. That's my view of it anyway. I'm rooting for Jude all the way. I do not see these books about to convince me of Ever and Damen's love. It's just not happening. Anywho, I get to the next book when I've gotten a good sleep.

I liked this series at the beginning. Then it took a strange turn in regards to paranormal, in my tastes anyway. This one opens up with Haven turned into an immortal, and she's too excited about it, like a ticking time bomb. She seems like a tyrant, the new enemy, and that's hard when she was Ever's best friend. Roman is still the true enemy, and Ever gets help in some strange places. Damon isn't present much in this one, and Jude has a much bigger role. I don't feel like this one was a very good addition. However, that could be the narrator. She had no real emotion, and her voice's inflection hardly ever matched the words she was speaking. She read the other books as well, and I don't remember it being this bad. I may or may not continue, but I might read the 5th one, and it will be a while, that's for sure.
