i love maggie stiefvater. if i could be a sixteenth as creative as her, i could die happy. she probably vomits art. i first stumbled across the wolves of mercy falls a couple of years - at costco actually - but i didn't pick it up then because i was still trying to convince myself that i was a rock and didn't enjoy sappy...
