Shiver Maggie Stiefvater Quotes
“You’re beautiful and sad,” I said finally, not looking at him when I did. “Just like your eyes. You’re like a song that I heard when I was a little kid but forgot I knew until I heard it again.” For a long moment there was only the whirring sound of the tires on the road, and then Sam said softly, “Thank you.”
“It is possible to be in love with you just because of who you are.”
“My words are unerring tools of
destruction, and I’ve come unequipped with the ability to disarm them.”
“In that moment, Blue was a little in love with all of them.
Their magic. Their quest. Their awfulness and strangeness.
Her raven boys.”
“What do you eat?”
“Baby bunnies.” She narrowed her eyes, so I grinned and said, “Adult bunnies, too. I’m an equal-opportunity bunny-eater.”
“Books are more real when you read them outside.”
“You’re like a song that I heard when I was a little kid but forgot I knew until I heard it again.”
“You two are too cute,” the counter girl said, setting two cups piled with whipped cream on the counter. She had a sort of lopsided, open smile that made me think she laughed a lot. “Seriously. How long have you been going out?”
Sam let go of my hands to get his wallet and took out some bills. “Six years.”I wrinkled my nose to cover a laugh. Of course he would count the time that we’d been two entirely different species.
Whoa.” Counter girl nodded appreciatively. “That’s pretty amazing for a couple your age.”
Sam handed me my hot chocolate and didn’t answer. But his yellow eyes gazed at me possessively—I wondered if he realized that the way he looked at me was far more intimate than copping a feel could ever be.
I crouched to look at the almond bark on the bottom shelf in the counter. I wasn’t quite bold enough to look at either of them when I admitted, “Well, it was love at first sight.” The girl sighed. “That is just so romantic. Do me a favor, and don’t you two ever change. The world needs more love at first sight.”
“I fell for her in summer, my lovely summer girl,
From summer she is made, my lovely summer girl,
I’d love to spend a winter with my lovely summer girl,
But I’m never warm enough for my lovely summer girl,
It’s summer when she smiles, I’m laughing like a child,
It’s the summer of our lives; we’ll contain it for a while
She holds the heat, the breeze of summer in the circle of her hand
I’d be happy with this summer if it’s all we ever had.”
“She wasn’t interested in telling other people’s futures. She was interested in going out and finding her own.”
“While I’m gone,” Gansey said, pausing, “dream me the world. Something new for every night.”
“I am being perfectly fucking civil.”
“Gansey had once told Adam that he was afraid most people didn’t know how to handle Ronan. What he meant by this was that he was worried that one day someone would fall on Ronan and cut themselves.”
“So, Grace, how’s school?” I asked myself.
Dad nodded, eyes on the baby koala now struggling in the guest’s arms.
“Oh, it’s fine,” I continued, and Dad made a mumbling noise of agreement. I added, “Nothing special, aside from the load of pandas they brought in, and the teachers abandoning us to cannibalistic savages-” I paused to see if I’d caught his attention yet, then pressed on. “The whole building caught fire, then I failed drama, and then sex, sex, sex.”
Dad’s eyes abruptly focused, and he turned to me and frowned. “What did you say they were teaching you in school?”
Maggie Stiefvater Shiver
With the character of Grace Brisbane at age 11, Shiver starts against the backdrop of winter. Grace Brisbane has been pulled from her backyard tyre swing by a pack of wolves. Saved from the attack by a yellow-eyed wolf, the following 6 years consist of Grace routinely watching the edge of the woods behind her house in search of her saviour (he returns her gaze every winter).
The perspective of the novel alternates between Grace Brisbane and the yellow-eyed werewolf, Samuel K. “Sam” Roth, who only transforms over the duration of winter.
