This week I’m reading The Invisible Library by Genevieve Cogman. It’s about a librarian who travels to alternate realities to retrieve books. Bit of a mixture of detective story, science fiction and fantasy with some steampunk thrown in for good measure.

Irene paused, considering what words she could use that wouldn’t get her into trouble later if repeated elsewhere. She personally liked Coppelia, but words such as Machiavellian, efficiently unprincipled, and ice-hearted didn’t always go down well in conversations.

Happy reading everyone.

TeaserTuesday-ADailyRhythm3This week I’m reading Clockwork Prince, the second in the Infernal Devices series. I love Cassandra Clare’s writing so there was no way I could limit myself to just two sentences.

His breath against her ear made her shudder with each deliberately spoken word. “I have wanted to do this,” he said, “every moment of every hour of every day that I have been with you since the day I met you. But you know that. You must know. Don’t you?”

If she doesn’t want him I do.

Happy reading everyone.

TeaserTuesday-ADailyRhythm3I’m going to be a bit of a cheat this week as I’ve just started Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo and don’t want to flick in case I come across something that gives away the plot so I’m going for first two sentences.

Six of Crows (Six of Crows, #1)My Teaser

“Joost had two problems: the moon and his moustache.

He was supposed to be making his rounds at the Hoede house, but for the last fifteen minutes, he’d been hovering around the south-east wall of the gardens, trying to think of something romantic to say to Anya”

~ page 3

Have to admit I’m kind of curious about why his moustache is a problem.

Happy reading everyone.

TeaserTuesday-ADailyRhythm3Last night I started reading Hopeless by Colleen Hoover. I’ve heard a lot of great things about Colleen Hoover but this is the first book by her I’ve gotten round to reading. Only a few chapters in but enjoying it so far. Anyway here’s this week’s teaser.

Hopeless (Hopeless, #1)My Teaser

“I can’t distinguish between butterflies or a stomach virus, but either way I’m not fond of the way that voice penetrates right to the pit of my stomach. I stiffen and slowly turn around, all of a sudden aware that I’m no where near as confident as my past would lead me to believe.

Happy reading everyone.

TeaserTuesday-ADailyRhythm3At the moment I’m reading  What Might Have Been by Matt Dunn. It’s a girl meets boy, boy leaves girl, girl gets engaged to someone else and boy decides he wants her back type story. Reminds me a bit of a soap opera but for the most part I’m enjoying it.

What Might Have BeenMy Teaser

The moment he’d seen her, he’d known with an absolute clarity that coming home was the right thing to do, and that Sarah was the woman he wanted to spend the rest of his life with. Although given how the look on her face had changed so quickly from astonishment to what he hoped wasn’t anger, and the way she was gripping a bottle of Chardonnay rather menacingly by the neck, he wondered whether the rest of his life might not actually last that long.”

TeaserTuesday-ADailyRhythm3This is my first Teaser Tuesday but I’m a big fan of book quotes so this seems perfect for me. I’m continuing my current Halloween themed reads with The Beast of Barcroft by Bill Schweigart. The Beast of Barcroft

My Teaser

No lights were on except for the perpetual Halloween glow of the front porch lantern. No one pays attention to the scary things after Halloween, he thought out of the blue.”
