Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater

Have you ever loved before? Well Grace loves her yellow-eyed wolf that comes every winter. Sam loves his summer girl, the one that never seems to see him.  Little did Grace know that her Yellow-eyed love was Sam. In this tale of wolfs and love the bad guy is the cold. The cold keeps Sam from being human, and keeping him from Grace. Sam wasn’t always like this, but one bite changed him for life and soon his double life might disappear. The more he shifts the less of chance he has of changing back. Now with Grace by his side he has to fight the change that’s been a part of him for years.


        Out of 5 stars I give this book a 6! I just loved it. As you can tell I am a little sappy when it comes to love stories, so when this one landed in my hands I dove right into it. I have read the other books in the series and I have to say they all flow very well together. Not only that but Maggie Stiefvater did
exceptionally well with giving details and moving the plot along. I finished in
2 days and got yelled out more than once for reading when I wasn’t supposed to
be…..sorry. I would give this book to anyone, it’s got a little action in it,
it’s about love, and it has back stories that are only answered if you read on.
 Like always, happy reading!

Starfire Angels (Book one of the Dark Angel Chronicles)
By: Melanie Nilles
                Growing up Raea has always been different and more than one way. From the light blue marks on her hands to who she really is. Little dose she know that she isn’t 100% human; instead she is an Angel like her mother. Raea’s mother was a shard keeper, chosen to protect a powerful part of a weapon that could destroy all the worlds.  Before she and her husband were killed the shard was pasted down to Raea and without knowing became a shard keeper. Raea has no idea about any of this until the night that she gets her wings and a unsuspecting help comes out of the woodwork. As she learns what it means to protect this shard she still tries to live out her “normal” life. Read the book to see how that blows over!
I loved this book. It gave a really great twist to the concept of what an angel is. Not only this but if you think about how old Raea is, it becomes scary that at any point someone could just steal this shared away and destroy the world without a thought or care. Nilles plays with emotions, you feel for this girl who just wants to be normal by throwing in love connections left and right and she makes Raea feel like shes in the dark for most of her life. Out of 5 stars I give this book a 6! I thought that it was that great!
