Shiver (The Wolves of Mercy Falls, #1) by Maggie Stiefvater


3/5 Stars

B&N:


For years, Grace has watched the wolves in the woods behind her house. One yellow-eyed wolf--her wolf--is a chilling presence she can't seem to live without. Meanwhile, Sam has lived two lives: In winter, the frozen woods, the protection of the pack, and the silent company of a fearless girl. In summer, a few precious months of being human . . . until the cold makes him shift back again.

Now, Grace meets a yellow-eyed boy whose familiarity takes her breath away. It's her wolf. It has to be. But as winter nears, Sam must fight to stay human--or risk losing himself, and Grace, forever.


My Review:

I really should have done this right after I read it... it's been a month or so now.

This was rumored to be the "Next Twilight..." but for me... that is not how I see it- at all. I was forcing myself to get through this book. Yea- it was OK, but I think I had such high expectation for it that I was let down.

My students love it... maybe if I read it again, I'll like it more.
