Shiver has a lot of offer. Foremost, I love how the characters have depth. Sam is unbelieving in what he has become; Cole is so tortured that he never wants to be human again; Grace is going through some strange changes; Isabel is struggling to come to terms with her brother's death. It's all good stuff. One of the great things Stiefvater does to convey the depth of her characters is to switch the point of view of the story between her characters. Even sometimes in the same chapter the point of view will flip flop between Isabel and Cole for example, so we're getting both points of view on one situation at the same time.
Second, the plot. Oh, the plot. I don't want to spoil, but I love how things came full circle in this book, which ended on a cliffhanger. But I have to wait until at least July to find out how it ends. It was good read for sure, except for the font color. The next book's cover is read and I hope the font won't also be red - that won't be fun to read.
