Shiver is Nikki Gemmell's first novel.
It is the story of Fin, a young woman who gets the chance of a lifetime to go to Antarctica.

Surrounded by the cruel beauty of the last great wilderness on earth, she finds herself transfixed by the power of the land.

Travelling and living with a close-knit and idiosyncratic team, Fin learns the rules and taboos of community life in Antarctica, and then promptly breaks the strictest taboo of all - she falls in love. The consequences are shattering.

Lyrical, haunting and sometimes painfully moving, Shiver is a first novel of great power and beauty. (From Book Description)

"They put me into a small, white, still room and that was wrong."

A very interesting book. I might change my mind about wanting to go to Antarctica. Xd

I picked this up, in case I want to do the 666 reading challenge again. It's not easy finding an interesting book about Antarctica. Thanks for sharing!
