I enjoyed the plot of this one more than the first, and with the additional POV's from Cole and Isabel we get a break from the floof of Grace and Sam's relationship. I mean, I did really like the book, despite how critical I'm sounding. There's also a few too many perspectives a book in first person, but that's just my opinion. It doesn't fit with how hardcore he's trying to be? Though if you imagine him looking like Zayn Malik. well, he definitely grew on me over the course of the book (thanks to Isabel, no doubt), but like he's made out to be this hardcore rock star but like he's a teenager with a fanbase consisting of 10 year old!? That's not being a rockstar, that's being Justin Bieber or One Direction and while there's nothing wrong with that, it's not really what he's trying to be. And all Sam's beautiful lyrics seem kinda ridiculous, especially in Swedish (but a coworker assured me it's just as bad in English.).Ĭole is. I mean, I'm not on Grace's parents' side or anything, they're complete bastards, but reading about how in love they are is kinda tedious.
The first pair because zzzzzz teen romance. My two biggest beefs with this book is Sam/Grace and Cole St. It's spring-ish in the book and it's spring-ish now that I'm reading it so that's nice as well. But we all know I'm going to read the next one anyway.I'm still really into the way the werewolves work in this book and I'm glad it's being further explored in this one. And so many loose ends! Possible spoilers ahead but why on earth would Beck choose to turn two teenagers to take over instead of an adult? If he thought it was Sam's last year why would all of the trusts and such still be in his name? Why didn't any of the other new wolves start turning back, especially Olivia? WHY WAS THE TEXT IN MY COPY GREEN?! I can't even with this one. These children are terrible at making decisions. I found myself agreeing with the mom that the relationship was way too intense too fast, werewolves or not. Review 2: I really don't know why I keep reading these books. But hey, if doesn't take you on an emotional roller coaster, then how good of a book could i. It's an amazing book, and I really did enjoy reading it, even if it took me on an emotional roller coaster. We learn more about the main characters, Grace and Sam and their friend, Isabel, as well as some new characters along the way.
'Linger' is a beautifully written book, and in my opinion, it's even better than the first. There were times when I laughed so hard I couldn't breathe, and times when I wanted to chuck the book at the wall, but most of the time I just wanted to curl up on my bed and cry for the rest of eternity.
I honestly have no idea what to say except I HAD SO MANY MIXED FEELINGS ABOUT THIS BOOK WHEN I FINISHED READING IT. Review 1: 'Linger' is the sequel to 'Shiver'.
