My favorite thing about this series is the characters: their separate points of view, their individual voices, and especially their interactions with each other. Stiefvater really makes them seem real, and I can't help but be invested in their lives. Can't wait for FOREVER to come out this July! :)<br />- Alyssa of Redhead Heroines<br /><a href="http://redheadheroines.blogspot.com/2011/05/book-review-of-linger-by-maggie.html" rel="nofollow">Book Review of "Linger" by Maggie Stiefvater</a>Alyssahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06506707601418740461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-987167496142681464.post-5057572796102890452010-05-25T01:10:30.378+02:002010-05-25T01:10:30.378+02:00I just reviewed LINGER on my blog and I felt simil...I just reviewed LINGER on my blog and I felt similarly nervous for Grace getting "werewolf" symptoms, but found my mistrust unfounded.

Like you, I was happy where <i>Shiver</i> ended and I'm not really looking forward to reading <i>Linger</i> because I just want Sam and Grace to be together. But based on the reviews that I've seen, it looks like I don't need to worry. I will definitely check out <i>Linger</i> when it comes out!Chachichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10216391673830772231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-987167496142681464.post-45908852990316057402010-05-08T05:13:38.716+02:002010-05-08T05:13:38.716+02:00Hmm.

I like the inclusion of more POVs because that's always fun and it's great to hear that it's handled well (it can be hard to successfully juggle multiple POVs).
