Oppisote Stories?

             I have finished the book Linger by Magie Steifvater three days ago. I noticed something about this book that makes me compare to the first book Shiver. Linger is like the opposite story of Shiver for two reasons. Both books are good and with the same characters, but only opposite stories.
            One way is that in Shiver, Sam turns to a human being. Before that transformation, he was a wolf. In Linger, Grace turns to a wolf at the end of the book. Before, she was a human. It's the opposite characters and opposite transformations.
            The other way is that in Shiver, Sam and Grace fall in love with eachother. In Linger, Grace's best friend falls in love with Cole, Sam's wolf relative who also turned to human in this book Linger.  Another pair fall in love, but also opposite of Sam and Grace.
           There are other ways to show that my statement is right, but these two are more stronger evidence. Linger and Shiver are like opposite stories. Will Forever (last book of series) be opposite stories too? I predict yes because if the second book was opposite, then the same thing would happen to the next book.
