I'm torn about this book. On one hand I liked the beautiful prose and original story, on the other hand it became boring at times and Sam isn't real or gay. First Grace is not as pathetic as Bella but how much homework can a person do, seriously. She wasn't very interesting and well she's forgettable. Sam is so sweet and perfect it's creepy. So I didn't really care about the story and I will not be reading Whisper unless it's the only book left and I've got nothing to do. Or when I need to fall asleep. Maggie Stiefvater though will get another chance because her writing is pretty.
