Justine:

City of Ashes
by Cassandra Clare

In this breathtaking sequel to City of Bones, Cassandra Clare lures her readers back into the dark grip of New York City's Downworld, where love is never safe and power becomes the deadliest temptation.

I'm borrowing this from my friend, Stephanie the Tree, whose birthday was a couple of days ago. And remember the signed poster I won? I gave it to her as a present! Yes, I'm such a nice friend.

Shiver
by Maggie Stiefvater

For years, Grace has watched the wolves in the woods behind her house. One yellow-eyed wolf—her wolf—is a chilling presence she can't seem to live without. Meanwhile, Sam has lived two lives: In winter, the frozen woods, the protection of the pack, and the silent company of a fearless girl. In summer, a few precious months of being human ... until the cold makes him shift back again.

Now, Grace meets a yellow-eyed boy whose familiarity takes her breath away. It's her wolf. It has to be. But as winter nears, Sam must fight to stay human--or risk losing himself, and Grace, forever.

I won this one at Books at Midnight. Thank you, Jenn!
I never realized how pretty the cover looks... but argh, it's dirty and a little ripped on the back! But anyway...am I the only one who hasn't read this one yet?

    Enjoy City Of Ashes as well.

  3. Maybe so. I have read and enjoyed both books. In fact, after reading Shiver, I went out and bought all of Maggie Stiefvater's other books too. I hope you enjoy them.

    I'm visiting via The Saturday Network. Welcome to the party!
