Lala's Book Corner: Shadowland by Alyson Noel

"At the start of this breathtaking novel, Damen and Ever travel to Summerland in search of an antidote to reverse a powerful poison. But instead of the cure they seek, they find something far more sinister: the truth about their existence and the fate lying in wait of an immortal’s soul.

Now, with Damen fighting to save them from the Shadowland, Ever turns to magick, hoping to break Damen’s curse. Along the way Ever encounters the mysterious Jude, finding herself drawn to him in a way that will test her love for Damen like never before . . ."

From Goodreads.

I have to say that I was somewhat disappointed with this book. I really enjoyed books 1 & 2, though they weren't my favorites, but this one just felt incomplete and kind of slow. The plot took a while to move and I felt that some of the choices made, regarding the characters, were interesting but weird. I felt that the conclusion of it was too quick and lacking momentum. I realize that there will be a book 4 in this series and that leaving this open is a part of it. But, it bothered me that nothing really got resolved, the book ended the same way it started and that was so irritating.

I like Ever most of the time, but she came out selfish and shallow at times in this novel, that really annoyed me. Damen changed a lot this time around and I actually enjoyed the changes. He has become the sort of Hero I can totally get behind of, even though he did play the martyr at times and it felt too forced.

Overall this book felt like a transition book. I won't give up on the series though. Let's see what happens.

I give it 3/5 Loveys

Thanks for tuning in and I'll see you soon!
