NSD Titans Book Club

We have started our Twitter book club at Norris High School.  Our first title is Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater. Members of the book club can either follow us at Twitter with the hash tag #nsdtitanbookclub or at the NSDTitansBookClub in the groups of nsdtitans.org.

Curious about what Shiver  is about? Here's a quick synopsis:
Grace, 17, loves the peace and tranquility of the woods behind her home. It is here during the cold winter months that she gets to see her wolf—the one with the yellow eyes. Grace is sure that he saved her from an attack by other wolves when she was nine. Over the ensuing years he has returned each season, watching her with those haunting eyes as if longing for something to happen. When a teen is killed by wolves, a hunting party decides to retaliate. Grace races through the woods and discovers a wounded boy shivering on her back porch.   Who is he, and how will this boy change her relationship with the wolves in the forest?
