Shiver 

Picture
Shiver is one word, amazing!  It literally had me sobbing in parts.  With this book I fell in love (with sam) and hated.  I felt like I was actually in the book with the characters.  This book is about Grace Brisbane.  She's always been a little bit different, ever since she was pulled of the tire swing in her back yard by wolves.  And also ever since then she watched the wolves.  But one wolf in particular, her yellow eyed wolf.  Sam.  Sam is in love with Grace (not me) but is only human for part of the year.  They have never spoken or seen each other up close, both as humans.  Can Sam fight his curse to be with Grace and have the life he never thought possible?  Can he forgive Beck, his best friend and father like figure?  Or will they risk everything and lose it all?  This book is hilarious, sad, happy and frustrating.  You won't be able to put it down until you've read every, single, last, page of this amazing book.  Maggie Stiefvater has outdone herself.  It is a must read!  When you're done Shiver you have to read it's sequel, Linger!

P.S. The writing's in blue!
