Nick and Allie don't survive the car accident...
...but their souls don't exactly get where they're supposed to get either. Instead, they're caught halfway between life and death, in a sort of limbo known as Everlost: a shadow of the living world, filled with all the things and places that no longer exist. It's a magical, yet dangerous place where bands of lost children run wild and anyone who stands in the same place too long sinks to the center of the Earth.
When they find Mary, the self-proclaimed queen of lost kids, Nick feels like he he's found a home, but Allie isn't satisfied spending eternity between worlds. Against all warnings, Allie begins learning the "Criminal Art" of haunting, and ventures into dangerous territory, where a monster called the McGill threatens all the souls of Everlost.
In this imaginative novel, Neal Shusterman explores questions of life, death, and what just might lie in between. (Book Cover)
Reviews with the most likes.
I loved this book and all the characters in it. That is the beauty of all Shusterman's books. He makes you love all the characters even the bad guys and the horrible people. They all have their tragic stories and their motivations, so there is never a character that you can really totally hate.
I saw the plot twist coming, but still thoroughly enjoyed it. I have read so many of his books now that I kinda know how they are structured so I know that everything has significance. Though the coin thing did throw me off guard. I am excited to read the next ones and honestly any other goods from this author because everything I read from him continues to be amazing.
