READON Review by Sarah R:
Shiver, by Maggie Stiefvater, is about Grace, a girl who’s obsessed with wolves, especially the wolf with mesmerising, yellow eyes – her wolf. No one thought much of the wolves except Grace – even after she was attacked, it was only when a citizen of MercyFalls was attacked and killed by the wolves that it mattered.
Sam a boy, a wolf. Sam had always admired Grace from a distance not knowing how to approach her but Sam is running out of time. Winter is near. It’s now or never.
Grace and Sam must fight against the cold and all odds to stay together, keep their secret a secret and hopefully be able to find a cure, all the way daring not to shiver.
If you like books that are romantic, suspenseful and against fate then you will enjoy this book.
If you liked Hush, Hush by Becca Fitzpatrick then you might like this book too.
I’d recommend this book to students in year 9 and up (14 years+) as some content may be difficult for readers to understand and not because the level of language which was not too complicated.
I rate this book 3.5/5 ReadOn Stars.
