I have also finished listening to my playaway of Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater which I enjoyed although I think the ending was too clean and neat. These days I almost assume and expect unhappy endings from YA novels. I thought the book was going to be more wherewolf/vampire themed, but was pleasantly surprised to find a very touching story about adaptation, choice, heartache and love. I recommend it.
I have since picked up The Tear Collector by Patrick James. This book got rave reviews before publication, so when it came in on a recent order I grabbed it before someone else could. So far so good- I just started it and will report back soon!
