SHIVER by Maggie Stiefvater

This young adult novel is full of love, action, and burrowing sadness.  It was winter, that's when the young Grace was taken off her swings by wolves and dragged to the edge of the woods.  Her yellow eyed wolf Sam saved her life and that's when they fell into a deep love.  Grace didn't know yet but Sam was a shapeshifter who changed to a human when it was warm and into a wolf when it turned cold.  Years later on a cool wintery day Sam was shot and went to Grace for help.  From then on they spent every moment together because they both knew this was his last year as a human.  They go through many obstacles to keep Sam human and to make sure the secret of the wolves doesn't come out.  Grace made new friends and changed throughout the novel.  It's a very good book to read and I deffinetly recommend it more for girls than boys.  When I was reading it I didn't want to put it down, I just wanted to keep reading.  I loved that Sam loved Grace so much.  It was really cute especially since he wrote a song about her.  There is a sequal to the book called Linger that I plan on reading because this book was really good and I'm hoping the second one will top it off.
