Here it is! The cover of the third and final book in Maggie Stiefvater's Wolves of Mercy Falls trilogy. I'm so glad it's red. I think it fits the close of this series well, I love the subtle change in the leaves, and it makes me happy to see Sam on his very own cover as well. Forever is due out July 12th of next year and it promises to be just a doozy of a finale.
It seems a long time ago now that I first read Shiver -- the first book in the Wolves of Mercy Falls trilogy. But looking back I started it on the plane ride to BEA and finished it there in the conference center, fingers gripping the cover tightly, while sitting on the floor in one of the many autograph lines. And now it's May again and BEA is right around the corner and I emerge from my recent and nasty reading slump stupor to find a copy of Linger sitting in my mailbox like a glove thrown down in the dirt. "I will be the one to pull you out," it whispers to me slyly. "Just open me up and take a sip. I promise--one sip is all it will take." And I look at it with fear and longing written all over my face. "You promise?" I ask intently. "Because it's been a long walk in the cold and I'm not sure I can take another disappointment." "Just open me up," it says, confidence written all over its cover. And so I do. And everythin
This is a great cover. I am liking the read. All the books together makes the series look great. I need to read Linger, waiting for one of my daughters to finish the read.
ReplyDeleteI like it! It completes the other two books really well. I'm looking forward to reading it!
ReplyDeleteLOVE!
ReplyDeleteit's warmer than her previous covers, I only read Shiver but I didn't love it as much as everybody else seems to do (:
ReplyDeleteibeeeg, they really do look great together. Can't wait to have them side by side on my shelves. And you're a good mom for waiting for your daughter to finish. Not sure I'd be so patient!
ReplyDeletekay, I agree. Can't wait!
Tiah, *grin* Me, too.
Ari, I'm sorry. I hate that feeling. I don't know whether to recommend giving LINGER a try or not. It's a fair bit different from SHIVER with a new awesome character. It's the writing that really gets me, though. So if you liked it, you might forge on and if not, no worries.
Shiver was so good! Love the new cover. Hate how far away its release is!
ReplyDeleteLiza, I know. So long...here's hoping for an ARC. ;)
