  • I just got this book yesterday and it's really good so far! :)

  • I met Maggie Steifvater ans she signed by book saying," For Sasha, who looks for Sam!"

    I

  • Shiver's one of the few books I've read, that doesn't take seventeen chapters and four deaths to make a chapter/scene memorable. It may not have been long, but it was a turning point for Sam.

    Again, to sort of support your case, it's a great escape from all the love triagles, rectangles, one creature against another, impending doom, hero/heroine with one character flaw that is solved by the end of the series, unrealistic abilities, only one climax, and/or vampires that inhabit most YA novels.

  • ammazing book!

  • if they were to make a movie out of this book the perfect Sam would be Matt Prokop!! Trust me on that!

  • I honestly don't like this book so much. The story line could have been so much better if it wasn't for the fact that there's just that redundant life pattern-school, sam, pety problem, complaint of parents, grace back to start. Its just the same thing for a while and it got so boring. Plus i didn't really feel any connection with the characters. So whatever romance they have, which gets off i think too fast, just seems as if no big deal and considering it IS a romance book; its dissapointing.

  • @anime0pop I totally agree with you. It was interesting at first but it just got dull.

  • @anime0pop I thought the trilogy was actually pretty good. There wasn't the constant 'impending doom' that takes place in most fantasy/romance novels, which can sometimes get tiring to me. And, peoples lives aren't always one big adventure after another after another. Routine happens.

  • @POPclogger216 But for a book to be only routine, doesn't that give a weak or lack of a plot? I just feel that too much routine doesn't give any urgency to read on which is what books need to have to be a major success.

  • @anime0pop Shiver's not all routine. *SPOILER* Not everyday does Sam freak out because of a bathtub. Nor a car crash, which causes soemone to turn into a wolf, leaving the other to wonder if they will ever see the wolf again.

    To sort of support your opinion, to me, Shiver's a book that you have to want to read before actually starting, to get the book. It may not capture a skeptic within its first pages, but it's a bestseller to those who will give it a chance all the way to the end.

  • @POPclogger216 but that freak out in the bathtub was resolved how fast? Within 2 pages, i completley forgot about a car crash too. These are just small bumps that resolve themselves pretty fast thats why this book for me seemed to have no urgency or to even take a conflict seriously because i knew within the next 3 pages the story would resume to being as it was 4 pages ago.

  • This is the very best book I have ever read. If I could live in this book I would <3
