Because I'm too afraid of accidentally including spoilers, here's the product description:
In Maggie Stiefvater's Shiver, Grace and Sam found each other. Now, in Linger, they must fight to be together. For Grace, this means defying her parents and keeping a very dangerous secret about her own well-being. For Sam, this means grappling with his werewolf past . . . and figuring out a way to survive into the future. Add into the mix a new wolf named Cole, whose own past has the potential to destroy the whole pack. And Isabel, who already lost her brother to the wolves . . . and is nonetheless drawn to Cole.This is a great second book to the series. It is well-written and entertaining. I enjoyed the four different voices of Grace, Sam, Cole and Isabel, and the story took a direction I wasn't anticipating. I wasn't 100% sold on the green font the book was published in though. I look forward to the finale next year!

So many people love this series, that I want to try it, even though it's out of my comfort zone. I wonder why those chose green text.
The good reviews for this series just keep stacking up. I really am going to have to move them up on my to be read list. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
You're at book 65 of the 100+ reading challenge? I really need to get a move on.
I just have to read this series! Everyone just loves it!
I noticed the blue text of the first book for only a little while, but then became so involved in the story, I didn't "see" it anymore. I wonder if that will be possible when it's green!? I'm excited to read this one! I love this author's writing.
This series has so many admirers that it makes me want to give it a try even though I was a bit skeptical when I heard reviews of the first in the series.
