I like that it fits in with Shiver, but I don't think the greens contrast well enough. The cover of Shiver does make me shiver, but Linger isn't giving me a warm spring feeling.<br /><br />I'm definitely going to read Linger because Shiver was a good story. I wonder if the text in Linger will be green.Jazzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07906363450397019069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883357040961628327.post-8833045324815878742009-11-20T19:01:04.687-06:002009-11-20T19:01:04.687-06:00Hm, I have to say I sort of agree.

What really was the determining factor of me getting Shiver was the beautiful blue text, lol. And, though Linger's cover is pretty, it's not exactly as stunning as the first one, which I think is because while Shiver was beautiful in it's simplicity, this one is not exactly simple but not complex either. Just in the middle, and therefore just okay.<br />BUT, I'm definitely getting Linger! No doubt about that. :)Jenn (Books At Midnight)https://www.blogger.com/profile/14939427985838403657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883357040961628327.post-84321838755206202182009-11-19T09:36:03.349-06:002009-11-19T09:36:03.349-06:00I don't like this one much either.

I realize they are trying to connect to Shiver's popularity but there had to be a better way. Love to hear the comments from your students!Alyssa Kirkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05619379952262450970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883357040961628327.post-89669543609451905592009-11-19T07:26:33.976-06:002009-11-19T07:26:33.976-06:00What a great thought provoking exercise.
