Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event highlighting exciting upcoming releases. Now that it is nearly July, we only need to wait 20 more days to read! I cannot wait to read more about Grace and Sam and see were this book takes them. Shiver was such an amazing book and I’ve been dying to read Linger ever since I finished it. I think everyone who has read Shiver is waiting for Linger. At turns harrowing and euphoric, Linger is a spellbinding love story that explores both sides of love–the light and the dark, the warm and the cold–in a way you will never forget. Add into the mix a new wolf named Cole, whose own past has the potential to destroy the whole pack. And Isabel, who already lost her brother to the wolves…and is nonetheless drawn to Cole. For Sam, this means grappling with his werewolf past…and figuring out a way to survive into the future. For Grace, this means defying her parents and keeping a very dangerous secret about her own well-being. In Maggie Stiefvater’s Shiver, Grace and Sam found each other. Now, in Linger, they must fight to be together. ![]() |
