Summary:
After fighting for centuries to be together, Ever and Damen’s future hinges on one final showdown that will leave readers gasping for breath. Don’t miss this explosive new installment of the #1 bestselling series that’s enchanted millions across the world!

Haven still blames Ever for the death of her boyfriend Roman, no matter how hard Ever’s tried to convince her it was an accident. Now she’s determined to take Ever down…and destroy Damen and Jude along the way. Her first step is to tear Ever and Damen apart—and she has just the ammunition to do it.

Hidden in one of Ever’s past lives is a terrible secret about Damen—a secret that illuminates new facts about her relationship with Jude, but that’s so dark and brutal it might be enough to drive her and Damen apart once and for all. As Ever faces her greatest fears about the guy she wants to spend eternity with, she’s thrust into a deadly clash with Haven that could destroy them all.

Now it’ll take everything she’s got—and bring out powers she never knew she had—to face down her most formidable enemy. But in order to win, she must first ask herself: is her own survival worth dooming Haven to an eternity of darkness in the Shadowland? And will learning the truth about Damen’s past hold the key to their future?

Review:
I didn't care for this book very much. I loved the first 2 evermore and bluemoon, but with shadowland the whole series started to go down hill for me. In the previous books the story was really dragged out, if you asked me what the diferences between shadowland and dark flame were I couldn't tell you. The only difference is that Roman dies in Dark flame. In Night star at least some things happened that were different that's why I gave it a 2 1/2 instead of a 1.

The whole Ever and Haven drama was dragged out I really wish one would have killed to other sooner than they did, instead of having multiple confrontations in which nothing happened what so ever. Ever and Damen have had the same issue of not being able to tough each other for like 3 books so far, I think Alyson Noel should have fixed that problem and made up a new one for the final book. The writing in this book was alright, but not great. There wasn't much of a character development in anyon except Haven, since she has now gon to the dark side. The only character I truely do like in this series is Jude, I like him because of his down to earth nature. Jude is the one who deserves Ever, if one has has to have her, not Damen. In the Summary it says that Damen is hiding something and it could ruin their relationship. But before I started rading I knew nothing could seperate them, because in the end it will be Damen, so Jude is just a waste of a character he really had no chance at all.

This book was a bit better for me than the last 2, it took me so ling to get to this book because I wasn't sure if I wanted to continue the series. I will be reading the last one Everlasting because I want to see how Alyson is going to bring this series to an end ( about time). I recommend this book to people who have read the previous books, but not o people looking for a good book to fall in love with, this just isn't for you. Unless you love this sereis than go for, pick it up and read it.

Cover: 3/5, I think the covers for this series are some what pretty. I like the contrst of the black background and the colourful/ bright jar thingy in her hand. The person on the cover though looks really fake ( I don't know if it is).
