Shiver

Dear Class,
Right now I am reading Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater. It is about a girl who falls in love with a werewolf. But here, werewolves only have a few years of switching from human to wolf. So now the werewolf has to fight to stay human. The girl is Grace and the werewolf is Sam.

Just like in Twilight, only a few people that aren't werewolves who know about werewolves . Here, they only have a few years until the werewolves stop becoming human. In Twilight, they stop becoming wolves after they haven't been wolves for a while (kind of confusing). Also like Twilight, the werewolves could read each others minds when they are all wolves. But, in Twilight, the wolves could actually like, talk in their minds to other wolves. Here, they can only show pictures to the other wolves. It kinda also works if one is a wolf and one is a human.

When Grace was 11, she was attacked by the werewolves in the forest behind her house. Her house was very close so she could've screamed for help but she didn't. Why didn't she fight and scream??? She just stared at them (weird). I would've been so scared.


After that, she would always watch one wolf during the winter. It had yellow eyes (she didn't know this yet, but that was Sam). She was kind of obsessed with the wolves, just like I'm obsessed with Twilight :). But why was she obsessed? Why wasn't she scared of them???? They attacked her so shouldn't she be scared of them????????


Apparently, the longer you are a werewolf, the more heat you need to change you into a human and the less coldness you need to change into a wolf. So, why does temperature matter when you're a werewolf?????

I felt really bad for Grace when Sam left. He was fighting to stay human (not like real fighting but like not going outside and just staying in the warm. They just call it fighting.) but then he just gave up. The car hit a deer and the engine was dead so Sam decided to just give up. When Sam was a wolf, she would feel really bad when she heard him howl.

This is a really good book and if you love Twilight (like me!!!!!!!:)), you will probably like this book.
