Linger/Maggie Stiefvater/360 pages


This is the sequel to Shiver, and now there are plot twists. There are new werewolves and, of course, it's problematic.
The relationship between Sam and Grace hit a major roadbump with her parents. They suddenly become really aware of Sam and view him as "unsuitable and unhealthy" for their daughter. What greater teenage angst can their be than forbidden love? At least Romeo and Juliet didn't have to worry about changing into werewolves or getting shot as a wolf. (oops, you didn't hear that)
Good girl Grace becomes defiant and also has some latent werewolf sickness going on. The race is on to find a cure for her and the ending leaves you waiting for the next book due out soon, I hope. I'm rooting for Sam to find a way to help her.
