Shiver (#1 in The Wolves of Mercy Falls) by Maggie Stiefvater

 

Synopsis :

For years, Grace has watched the wolves in the woods behind her house. One yellow-eyed wolf—her wolf—is a chilling presence she can't seem to live without.

Meanwhile, Sam has lived two lives: In winter, the frozen woods, the protection of the pack, and the silent company of a fearless girl. In summer, a few precious months of being human… until the cold makes him shift back again.

Now, Grace meets a yellow-eyed boy whose familiarity takes her breath away. It's her wolf. It has to be. But as winter nears, Sam must fight to stay human—or risk losing himself, and Grace, forever.

This is What I Say :

Shiver is the 1st title in The Wolves of Mercy Falls Series. At first, it was a trilogy but then it became a 4 books series.  Each title would be from a perspective a different character.

In this first title, it was from the perspective of Grace and Sam.

This title didn't get very good review from the general readers.  Still, I think it wasn't that bad but truth be told, it actually wasn't very good either.  I guess there's just too many werewolf genre of books in the market and readers who have their favorites would tend to be overly critical about other titles.  

The storyline is pretty simple and rather straightforward which might be coined as 'boring' but it was a rather pleasant read for me.  I quite like the characters although I can't really understand them.

I will be back to share about the second title Linger when I am done with it.
