The thing is, Maggie is brilliant in her writing, she really captures the emotional stuff well, but I don't always love the characters or the story itself even when her writing is brilliant. I *usually* do, but not always. My favorite is actually her first series, those were brilliant when I read them. I'm glad you enjoyed this one!Candacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01701325312535440179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7047843651411739466.post-32498741611990217082014-07-12T10:53:39.893-04:002014-07-12T10:53:39.893-04:00Cole and Isabel made the Shiver series for me!

While I was kind of bored with the main characters in Shiver, I loved the supporting characters Cole and Isabel. I actually have to go pick up my pre-orders of this book today! Luckily, Maggie does special signings for a local bookstore, so I can't wait to see the prettiness!

I've been meaning to read Forever, but I feel like I need to re-read the other two. I do like Maggie's writing, and I've only read two of her books.

I was wondering if I could just dive into this book. I have read the first in the Wolves series but not the rest. I do think I'll try the rest before diving into this one.
