But will it be enough?Praise for Maggie Stiefvater: “If Shiver left fans wanting more, Linger will have them begging.” -Romantic Times “Beautiful and moving…The mythology surrounding the wolf pack is clever and so well written that it seems perfectly normal for the creatures to exist in today’s world. A must-have that will give Bella and Edward a run for their money.” - SLJ, starred review “Stiefvater leaves the faeries of Lament and Ballad for a lyrical tale of alienated werewolves and first love….her take on werewolves is interesting and original while her characters are refreshingly willing to use their brains to deal with the challenges they face.” - PW, starred review”All readers will be able to enjoy Stiefvater’s fast-paced storytelling and dedication to the old-fashioned art of creating a believable and enduring romance. Shiver is beautifully written, even poetic at times, and a perfect indulgence for readers of all ages.” - BookPageMaggie Stiefvater is the #1 NEW YORK TIMES bestselling author of the novels SHIVER, LINGER, and FOREVER.
