A thrilling fantasy * The Sun * Sara Holland deftly crafts a memorable cast of characters and sense of place. Clearly intended as a first of a series, it's hard to think of a more promising YA franchise starter * SciFiNow * It's full of atmospheric imagery and fleeting yet intriguing introductions * Culturefly * Sara Holland is a fierce storyteller. An intoxicating blend of blood, secrets, and haunting mythology * Stephanie Garber, bestselling author of Caraval, on EVERLESS * Propelled by inventive lore and magic, Jules' story is a heady, addicting page-turner ...

The concept of Everless is refreshing and unique * Booklist on EVERLESS * Nice twist with it being a fantasy story in essence, with a background of magic and other races/communities, but all set in our own world. Although we may not visit the other worlds in this book, the author has described them superbly and makes you want to hear more about them (perhaps already building the world for sequels to move in to) [...] A wonderfully told story! * Reading Zone * Sarah Holland masterfully weaves a thrilling tale of love, hurt and betrayal while delving into the mystical realms hidden within Havenfall. From shapeshifting monsters to star crossed-teens, Havenfall is balancing it all. A truly beautiful and gripping read * Teen Titles *More details
