Blue Moon is the sequel to Evermore. Coupled with Evermore, it’s the second in the Immortals series. I like the supernatural elements–they’re slightly hokey, but not too bad. Without posting any spoilers, I will say that I liked this book.
The thing that struck me the most is that there are several scenes that I related to, which I can only refer to as High School Hell. I really empathized with the main character, and felt drawn in to the plot. For a sequel, the story is still interesting, although there are a few moments toward the end that seem too neatly wrapped up. Then again, I don’t expect too much from a young adult novel, lol.
Once I got to the end, I found out that there is a third book in the series, Shadowland, which I plan to read. (I thought it was going to be released in February 2010 since that’s what it said in the back of my copy of Blue Moon. But I looked up Shadowland on Amazon, and it shows the pub date as November 2009. Anyway, Shadowland has been released, and I found it locally at Borders.)
I’m assuming this is a trilogy, which is ok with me. I’d like to see the story wrapped up. The characters are likeable, but I’m not so attached to them that I don’t want the series to end. I’m hoping I’ll find resolution in the third book.
