'"You shouldn't have plotted behind my back," the Commander says, his voice as hard as the wagon floor beneath me. "You were disloyal, and now it's cost you.' - loc 1669 ARC Kindle edition.
*This is a teaser from the digital ARC*

I am really enjoying this book. It is constantly keeping you on your toes and you cannot expect anything. It is not pretictable. Well I don't think it is anyway.

Teaser Tuesday #15

It is Tuesday! Which means it is time for another teaser. This weeks teaser is from Losing Lila by Sarah Alderson.

Losing Lila (Lila #2) by Sarah Alderson
 
'"Stay here," he said, pushing past me and reaching for the door handle. I heard it then too - a screech of tyres, the slamming of car doors.' - page. 2
Oh yeah! Action and tension on page two! I am not that far in and I am loving it so far. If you have not read Hunting Lila you have to go and pick it up. It is amazing! And if you have read it, you have to read the sequel as well.

Teaser Tuesdays #14

This week's teaser is from Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas, the first book in the Throne of Glass series.

Throne of Glass (Throne of Glass #1) by Sarah J. Maas
 
'"Watch your mouth before I throw you back in the mines," the brown-eyed captain said.
"Oh, I don't think you'd do that."
"And why is that?" Chaol replied.
Dorian strode to his throne and sat down, his sapphire eyes bright. She looked from one man to another and squared her shoulders. "Because there's something you want from me, something you want badly enough to come here yourselves."- Loc 150 (Kindle)
*This is a quote from an digital ARC so may not be the same in the finished copy*

I know it is a little long but this is a quote, for me, that drew me into the book.

Teaser Tuesdays #13

This weeks teaser is from Grave Mercy by Robin LaFevers, the first book in the His Fair Assassin series.

Grave Mercy (His Fair Assassin #1) by Robin LaFevers
"Or at least the appearence of true caring, for I am well aware it could all be an act. An act designed to earn my trust. And just like some poor, dumb rabbit, I stumbled into his snare." - p.g. 262
If you read my Reading Plan post yesterday you would have already seen my thoughts on this book at the present. I think this is a book people will enjoy but it turned out to be on a topic which I don't enjoy. It is a lot more political than the blurb made it out to be. I don't think it is a bad book, I just think it wasn't for me.

Teaser Tuesdays #12

This weeks teaser is from Spell Bound by Rachel Hawkins, the third book in the Hex Hall series.

Spell Bound (Hex Hall #3) by Rachel Hawkins
The werewolf and I were plunged into darkness. I cursed, and the werewolf made a growl that sounded like the same word. For a few moments, just long enough to make me think that maybe I’d been wrong, the woods were quiet and still. And then everything erupted at once. – pg. 9-10
I have enjoyed this series so far and I intend to have a series review up at some point.
I'm looking forward to reading your teasers.

'I told myself, this isn't happening. My boyfriend of three years was not breaking up with me so he could bang coeds with shameless abandon.' - Kindle edition Loc. 201-2
I finished this book a couple of days ago and I enjoyed it. Lucas is just dreamy and practically perfect. Well perfect for me. Why can't there be guys like him in real life. He is not the guy described in the quote. That is Kennedy. He is dick!

Teaser Tuesdays #10

This weeks teaser is from The Selection by Kiera Cass.

The Selection (The Selection #1) by Kiera Cass
I finished this book yesterday and I loved it. This was surprise because after all the different things I had been hearing, I wasn't expecting to. But I did and here is my review
´“I think you can tell by now that I’m not the type of man to beat around the bush. I’ll tell you exactly what I want from you.”
Maxon took a step closer.
My breath caught in my throat. I’d just walked into the situation I feared. No guards, no cameras, no one to stop him from doing whatever he wanted. Knee-jerk reaction. Literally. I kneed His Majesty in the thigh. Hard.´ - page 145
I know that is quite a long one but I found this moment funny. I know what your thinking, she missed. She didn't actually. But don't get the wrong opinion of Maxon; he is actually a really nice guy. America just got the wrong idea.

This earned me one of Dimitri’s rare, genuine laughs." – The Golden Lily by Richelle Mead. pg. 24

I love that Dimitri is back in the picture for The Golden Lily. I'm especially enjoying the tension between him and Adrian. Better get back to reading!

My Teaser this week comes from the wonders that is Insurgent by Veronica Roth. I have taken the day off studying to sit back and delve as much of it as I can, before it's back to the books tomorrow. I am currently just over a 1/3 of the way through and loving it so far!
