Why The Shiver Series By Maggie Stiefvater Is Amazing

Are you a fan of books?

Are you a fan of Werewolf books?

Well the whether your a fan of Werewolf books or not the Shiver series by Maggie Stiefvater goes against every Werewolf myth and tale ever told.

It's completely non-cliche and AMAZING!

Maggie Stiefvater is a really good writer and has made many other series. I've only read one other series of hers which is amazing as well.

Her writing in this series, is absolutely beautiful. She can turn a simple sentence into being a beautiful and unique sentence while still understanding what point she wants to get across to you.

This Werewolf series is definitely different from past ones you've probably read.

First off, werewolves in this book DO NOT turn on a full moon. A little background info, the werewolves in this series turn when it starts to become colder then they stay a wolf until it gets warmer in spring.

When in wolf form, they do not remember that they were human once. They feel it as like a past life something in like a dream they could never get the full grasp of.

The more years someone keeps turning back and forth between a wolf and a human, the older they get the harder it is for them to turn back to human in the spring. Eventually that person starts to turn back into a human in the summer instead of spring until one day they never turn back at all.

While these people are in wolf form, since they don't remember who they are, then they are wild animals. And since they are wild animals they do not have any mind link whatsoever! None of that!

Nor no such thing as mates, soulmates, or that Twilight Saga thing called" imprinting".

Now more reasons why this series is amazing is the the main guy Sam Roth!! He will have you set high standards for guys once you finish book 1. He is amazingly adorable!

Location, location, location! This book is set in Mercy Falls, Minnesota. Which might not be an actual town but Duluth, Minnesota is. AND guess what there are actual wolves in the state!

Well that last part may not be such a good thing.

Also if your a sucker for romance, action, and not necessarily drama but conflict then this series is for you.

I don't wanna give away too much to you guys!

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.
