Publisher Description

IT BEGINS WITH AN ACCIDENT.

Nick and Allie don't survive the crash, and now their souls are stuck halfway between life and death in a sort of limbo called Everlost. It's a magical yet dangerous place, where bands of lost souls run wild and anyone who stands in the same spot too long sinks to the center of the Earth.

Frightened and determined, Nick and Allie aren't ready to rest in peace just yet. They want their lives back, and their search for a way home will take them deep into the uncharted areas of Everlost. But the longer they stay, the more they forget about their pasts. And if all memory of home is lost, they may never escape this strange, terrible world.

"I would recommend my book "Everlost" by Neal Shusterman to a friend because it's a good "sitting on the edge" of your seat book and it's exciting at all times of the story. Neal Shusterman gave many quotes in this book that gave evidence to that. He writes, "The earth had her like quicksand and she was going down. She tried to scream but, no sound came out."(page 67). He also wrote "although Lief and Allie tried to fight them, there were just too many. Lief was plunging into another barrel, kicking and screaming ans shloshing brine across the floor, until they nailed on the lid."(page 148). The last quote was "Allie swung her hand with all the strengh she could muster, and slapped Mary across the face."(page 159). In the first quote, Neal decribed how the road just swallowed the character, Allie, up and described how scary it was for her. Me as the character felt scared for Allie because Neal described it so well and how he described the road sucking her up just like quicksand. Not only is it a "sitting on the edge of your seat" scene but, it is good descriptive writing. In the second quote, he described the exact same thing as he did in the first but, from the second character's, Lief, point of view. It was just as scary, if not, scarier. Finally, in the last quote Neal was describing how hard Allie slapped Mary(another character) in the face and that she really must have wanted to hit her for a good reason. In the book "Everlost", Neal Shusterman used great descriptive writing and made the book exciting at all times and a "sitting on the edge of your seat" book."

    " Yet another great and creative book by neal shusterman! He never ceases to amaze me. The ending of this book is kind of sad. Thw whole book is filled with strange, lovely moments and heartwrenching sadness. It really annoys me how it switches perspectives at just the wrong moments. Still, I reccomend this book to anyone who is willing to have a bit of fun! "

    " Overall I found this book very underwhelming. It has a bit of a fairytale like quality to it, but there never really seems to be much of a sense of urgency to it and I found the characters a bit flat. "

    " Just as I was getting to the end of the book and thinking: Okay, I'm ready to move onto another series the final 40 or so pages changed my mind. I'm definitely interested in seeing what happens in the last two books. Nice amount of twists you don't find out until the end. "

    " Justin and I finished the first book in the Everlost series last night, and we really enjoyed it. The book starts off a little heavy, but Neal Shusterman does an amazing job with it. Justin is 11 and can't wait to read the rest of the trilogy. "

    " Good kids fantasy novel. Interesting but not great characters, but the plot was really original. I had no idea where the story was going to go. Again, if anyone is looking for a light, fun read, highly recommended. "

    " I really liked this--and the rest of the trilogy. It's recommended for 12 and up, but I would say 14 and up--death is a hard topic for young people to understand, and as the trilogy goes on, especially in book three, it's pretty dark. "

    " Neal Shusterman is a great storyteller. Everlost is an imaginative story about kids lost in a ghost world. Somewhere between the living and the light, these kids try to figure out where they are, and how to get where they are going. Watch out for the McGill and the Sky Witch. "
