Teaser Tuesday 28

Teaser Tuesday is a weekly book meme hosted by Should Be Reading.

The idea is to:
Grab the book you are currently reading.
Open it up to a random page.
Share two teaser sentences.
Give the name and author of said book.
And remember No Spoilers!

I'm taking a brief break from netgalley month to re-read Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater so I can get to the next two books Linger and Forever as soon as possible.

"I couldn't figure how I could smell the blood so strongly, and then I looked down at my shaking arms and saw the red smeared on my hands and over my wrists. I had to struggle to remember it was Shelby's blood."

Page 264 and 265.

the cold.
Grace has spent years watching the wolves in the woods behind her house. One yellow-eyed wolf—her wolf—watches back. He feels deeply familiar to her, but she doesn't know why.

the heat.
Sam has lived two lives. As a wolf, he keeps the silent company of the girl he loves. And then, for a short time each year, he is human, never daring to talk to Grace...until now.

the shiver.
For Grace and Sam, love has always been kept at a distance. But once it's spoken, it cannot be denied. Sam must fight to stay human—and Grace must fight to keep him—even if it means taking on the scars of the past, the fragility of the present, and the impossibility of the future.

  1. Maybe someday I'll give werewolves a chance. At the moment they do not interest me. But i did read this first book, I like the story but not enough to persuade me to read the next two.
    Hope you are having fun reading it.

    Here's my TT: http://www.peaceloveandreviews.com/2011/07/tuesday-teaser-6.html

  2. I am not into the werewolf genres. I like real life situations best.

    Happy Reading!

  11. I tried so very hard to get into Shiver, but it was just to mushy and melodramatic and I just couldn't do it. :(

  23. Whoa! I really need to read this series!

    Thanks for stopping by my blog! In terms of the Fever series, I wasn't too impressed with the first book. However, as the series went on, they have gotten progressively better.
