Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater
3.0
So, it wasn't my favorite YA book by any stretch. Yes, there were definitely elements that could be compared to Twilight in that we have a super cute young man who becomes a wolf, but the writing and storylines are (thankfully) much better written.
I have recently read many a YA book that reads much more like an adult book, or has deeper themes mixed in. This just wasn't one of those. It's pretty straightforward. Girl falls in love with a boy who is, by the way, a wolf when it gets cold. That's pretty much the depth of it.
I read it in a couple days as it's a super fast read - not horrific, just not great.
