Avery Williams has written a book any teen girl or young woman will love. Seraphina is the girlfriend of an alchemist who saved her life by giving her immortality at age fourteen. However, immortality is obtained at a high price. In order to maintain their immortality, they must steal the bodies of others. Now, six hundred years later, Seraphina hopes to die rather than continue her immortal existence at the expense of others.

Cyrus, her alchemist boyfriend, is not willing to let her go. Over the last several hundred years he has become more and more possessive of Seraphina. After successfully escaping Cyrus, Seraphina's planned death goes very, very wrong. Will she be able to correct the mistakes she has made? Will she finally achieve her goal of a final, peaceful death?

I enjoyed the twists and surprises and look forward to Avery Williams' next novel. The characters seem so alive and are easy to connect with. The creativity of this book makes THE ALCHEMY OF FOREVER impossible to stop reading.
