In the grand scheme of things, you’ll be dead a lot longer than you’ll ever be alive. The last thing Laken Stewart remembers is the oncoming car, then bursting through the windshield. Two months dissolve without her knowledge and she finds herself in unfamiliar surroundings with strangers who not only profess to know her but insist she’s someone else entirely. Laken discovers her long dead boyfriend, Wesley, has been thrown into this alternate world as well. He is quick to inform her she suffered a horrible fall and that her memory hasn’t fully returned. According to Wesley the other life she had—her name, her family, they were simply a side effect of her brain trauma. In her quest for answers she meets Cooper Flanders, the son of her psychiatrist who readily believes every word she says.

I can't get through it. If you're going to write in the first person you kind of, sort of have to sound like the voice of your character. The author includes so many distracting metaphors to describe things that I not only never feel like this is Lakens voice, I can't actually picture anything she's describing. It's like using actual written words to paint a picture, like the actual curves and lines in black and white. Sure it's clever and shows me how smart you are but it doesn't actually look like the real thing and I'm so distracted by the method I lose the actual thing you want me to picture. I had to stop reading. It was so distracting I couldn't follow the storyProduct details

Ephemeral The Countenance Angels Trilogy Book 1 eBook Addison Moore Reviews
I picked up this book on a whim, never heard of the author or the series, in fact I’m just barely beginning on a journey through paranormal romance. What I have read is a heck a ton of paranormal ick in different places. This, I am amazed to say, just displaced all of it. Thirsty for more doesn’t even begin to establish the joy I feel reading Addison Moore’s exquisite descriptions, her masterfully woven story line, and her brilliant handling of purpose driven characters. I’m hooked, no matter the cost I’m reading her whole catalog!
With all of the good reviews, I had high hopes - I was sadly disappointed. First, to follow this book at all, you would have had to have read other Addison Moore books and be familiar with the world that she has created. Second, the main character, Laken, is not likable - I didnt identify with her. She was sneaky and untrustworthy. I actually sympathized more with her nemisis! She supposedly had some great love for her old boyfriend, but every other page she was making out with Coop and scoping out another guy. She was just flighty!
I actually liked most of the book. The writing was well done, no noticeable errors, and good solid characters. My issues are in the details and such. Laken repeatedly thinks that she's a good fighter or would beat someone up, yet she gets slapped and attacked by both human and not human. You'd expect her to do something, right? Nope. The human never gets touched and except for a few ineffective hits the not humans almost kill her until a guy shows up to save her. The book is also somewhat confusing. You're thrown in with little explanation for what's happening. Which is fine since I think it's supposed to be that way. The ending is another one of those "let's chop a book into parts so I can sell more books" thing. There's no resolution at all. I'm fine with cliff hangers or series of books, but I don't care for a book to have told me nothing by the end. Usually in a book of a series there's say 10 questions and only a few get answered in book one. In this one, none got answered and tacked some on. If it weren't for the ending, I'd give it a four star review because I can overlook the whole I'm a wimpy bada$$ thing. I do like the author and have read other books by her so I may get book 2.
I was drawn in by the description of this book. I thought, alternate universe, a little mystery, sounds good. But I confess, I was unable to finish this book. It started out dark and then got darker. By the time I had met Laken and her "mean.girls" roommates, I had totally lost interest. I would suppose that this sort of book would be popular in book circles or universities. The descriptions are a little overwritten for my taste, the characters are vivid but one-dimensional, and it looked as if the best case scenario for our heroine is that she is dead. Just not my cup of tea.
Ephemeral by best-selling author Addison Moore is, well, ephemeral. Laken Stewart remembers being on a road, driving madly, angry at her cheating boyfriend, then, the last thing she remembers is the headlights of the oncoming car, and kissing her windshield as she plows through it. Two months later, she finds herself . . . somewhere else, with a new name, and a new family—people she neither recognizes nor remembers, until Wesley, her long-dead first love, shows up, and tries to convince her that she’s been suffering amnesia as the result of a fall, and being in a medically-induced coma for two months. Addison, though, remembers. She died on that highway, and has somehow been resurrected—or, has she?
What follows will keep you flipping pages, trying, along with Addison, to make sense of what’s happening. Is Wesley real, and has he also been resurrected and placed in a strange place, hundreds of miles from their home in Kansas? And, what is she to make of Cooper Flanders, son of the resident shrink, who says he believes her when she recounts her memories, while everyone else continues to maintain what she knows deep down inside is a fiction? Snatches of humor, as post-hormonal teens play out the drama that is the lot of teens everywhere, and stretches of outright horror as Addison contends with the zombies prowling the forest surrounding her new home.
The story ends in a cliffhanger of sorts, as Addison, Wes, and Cooper face off against hosts of warring angels and other mythical creatures, among which they must also count themselves. This is not mere escapist entertainment. Buried within the surrealistic scenes are gems of truth, and ferreting them out makes it worth the read.
I can't get through it. If you're going to write in the first person you kind of, sort of have to sound like the voice of your character. The author includes so many distracting metaphors to describe things that I not only never feel like this is Lakens voice, I can't actually picture anything she's describing.

Sure it's clever and shows me how smart you are but it doesn't actually look like the real thing and I'm so distracted by the method I lose the actual thing you want me to picture. I had to stop reading. It was so distracting I couldn't follow the story
