Shiver is a book I loved... until the end. I won't tell you what happens, but let's just say there are some unanswered questions. There is going to be a sequel, which I hope and pray clarifies the ending, but we shall see.
Grace is a normal, high school girl who happens to be fascinated by the wolves that occupy the woods behind her house. There is one wolf in particular that she is drawn to, and he is the wolf that saved her when she was attacked by the other wolves when she was young.
Sam is a normal, high school aged guy who happens to be part human, part wolf. When the weather turns cold, Sam turns into a wolf... Grace's wolf.
Once Sam and Grace meet in person, they find they have mutual feelings for each other, but those feelings are compromised by the fact that the next time Sam changes into a wolf, he won't ever change back.
This complicated love story is very intriguing. Once again, I find that I'm not doing the story justice, and once again, I'll say that this isn't typically a book that I would pick up and be interested in, accept that a student recommended it. However, once I started reading it, I was completely captivated until the very end. I can only hope that the sequel is equally as good and will answer the remaining questions that I have. This is definitely a book I'd recommend.
