The Forest of Evergreen: Lost in the Wilderness

Awarded 5 STARS by Readers' Favorite ________________________________________ Sophia Vabueretti grew up with her grandmother in Forest Green, a remote town in the Great Archipelago of Philipdomia somewhere in the Pacific Ocean. When she turned thirteen, she moved to her parents' house in the big city where she has to share a home with her two siblings, Alex and Nadine. In the summer before her senior year of high school, an accident causes her to lose her memory, and also causes her to regret forever having lost a high school romance. Her diary is the only link she has to her childhood memories and first love. As she struggles with both grief and loss, an unexpected encounter with a strange creature from the mystical Forest of Evergreen changes her life forever. Her life becomes even more complicated, tangled among three equally intense webs of love, death, and life. The Forest of Evergreen: Lost in the Wilderness will transport you to a magical place where a new kind of love and unfamiliar adventures await. ________________________________________ During the prologue, Teresa Bandiola does a superb job of telling the history of the Pacific island nation of the Great Archipelago of Philipdomia. She included the history about the mythical Avian tribes that inhabited the great forest region before the humans began settling. She was able to explicitly describe all of the characters' emotional turmoil, was able to explicitly describe all of the characters' emotional turmoil, especially Sophia's, as well as the wonder of her laying eyes on paradise. The Forest of Evergreen is brilliantly written, in a blending of young adult coming of age with fantasy that will have you anticipating the next installment. -Stephen Fisher for Readers' Favorite
