I thought today would be the perfect day to review this unicorn of a book. It is All Saints' Day—a fitting day to revisit all the crooked ones, no? It is also the first day of November and so, today, . . . well, you know the rest. What I'm saying is, today is kind of the perfect day to do all the Maggie Stiefvater-related things! Which is, of course, why I'll be attending her signing event later this evening at my local indie, key in hand. I know. I win today. I do. What I do not do is take it for granted. My good fortune or this book. This beautiful, beautiful book. But before we get into my reaction, I want to make a brief request. If you haven't yet had a chance to read Maggie's post on how this book came about and what it was originally going to be and what it actually became, I straight up implore you to do so. It is one of my favorite things I've read this year and it is something I needed to read this year. My favorite line? "I discovered that I wa…
Shiver looks interesting and I'm still reading Graceling. Thank you for posting.
ReplyDeleteOoooo! I had seen the cover for Fire, but not for Shiver. As if I wasn't already dying to read it! That cover is gorgeous - can't wait! And I'm looking forward to catching up with Scarlett and Spencer, too. Thank you, thank you, for posting these!
ReplyDeleteThe Fire cover is beautiful, plus it's similar enough to Graceling so that you can tell it's part of the same series.
ReplyDeleteThe Shiver cover is really striking, I would definitely pick it up in the store to have a closer look.
Oh, I can't wait for Fire and Shiver. The covers a re great. Do you know if Scarlett Fever is a sequel to Suite Scarlett (a book I haven't read)? The model looks the same.
ReplyDeletePrincess Allie, you bet! Hope Graceling is treating you right. :)
ReplyDeleteChelle, you are so welcome. I, too, am really excited about getting back together with Scarlett and Spencer. Such a great brother/sister relationship there.
Li, you're right. I'd pick Shiver up for sure based on the cover alone. It has a bit of the How I Live Now going on. Very exciting.
Anon, yes! Scarlett Fever is the sequel to Suite Scarlett and I highly recommend it. Hilarious.
Very fun - will definitely be keeping my eyes open for these in coming months.
ReplyDeleteYUM.
ReplyDeleteJanssen, I agree. Much to look forward to.
ReplyDeleteErin, lol. They do look tempting, don't they?
The cover art for Fire is simply stunning. I have Graceling sitting near the top of my YA TBR pile... it's also a lovely cover.
ReplyDeleteI also have to agree that shiver looks very tempting. I'm drawn to it as well.
Christine, Kristin Cashore really lucked out in the eye-catching, sumptuous cover department, huh? I think you'll enjoy Graceling.
ReplyDeleteThat is an amazing cover for Cashore's next book! I am looking forward to reading more from her. Graceling was very good, I heard about it from you :)
ReplyDeleteEmily, I know! So red and fiery. I'm very glad you liked Graceling. Hopefully Fire will be just as good.
