Teaser & Top Ten Tuesdays

Teaser Tuesday is a weekly feature hosted by Purple Princess of The Purple Booker.


Here are the rules:

1. Grab your current read
2. Open to a page
 
3. Pick out 2 lines that are SPOILER FREE 
4. Name the title, author, etc.



"I can bypass some of my terminal's limits. If I used my parents' terminal, then I'd be able to go deeper, but if I'm caught I'll be in big trouble. Hmmm...boredom might trump trouble." p 37*



*This quote comes from the ARC, therefore it and its page number are not final.










TITLE: Navigating the Stars
AUTHOR: Maria V. Snyder
PUBLISHER: Self (USA)
GENRE: Sci-Fi
RELEASE DATE: December 1, 2018 




Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together. 


This week's topic is: Thanksgiving/Thankful Freebie: Things I am Thankful For



*in no particular order


10. MY JOB--even though it's not ideal, I'm still grateful to have one! Though I am hoping to find myself something better soon. Fingers crossed!
9. MY HEALTH--again, it may not be like 100% perfect, but at least I'm still healthy and able-bodied like! Lol. I mean I can tote around a ton of books for a good portion of the day! LOL!
8. MY HOME--I still live with my family, mostly because of my job and why I need a better one so I can get my own place. But I am incredibly grateful/thankful for my family and the home I have.
7. FAMILY--like I just mentioned, I am so thankful I have such an amazing family who's always there for me.
6. FRIENDS--while there may not be as many in real life time, I am incredibly grateful for all my friends! The majority of which are right here in the blogosphere!


5. DISNEY--yes, because I am that dorky! Lol. Without Disney I really wouldn't be the same person I am today! And in a way, it's because of my love for Disney that I turned to the original fairy tales and later eventually developed my love for all things paranormal! So you see because of that beloved Mouse, I love vampires too! Lol.
4. PUBLISHERS--whether they be the big houses, the little houses, or all the self-published types, I am grateful to all the publishers for giving books their home!
3. AUTHORS--without authors, there'd be no books or stories and then I'd probably be in a dark place...and very, very bored.
2. BOOKMARKS--some might call them quitter strips, but I gotta have my bookmark. I can't always read a book straight through. Not since I've gotten addicted to twitter and instagram. And then you factor in my need for sleep and food. So yeah, I gotta take breaks.
1. BOOKS--for without them I do not know where I'd be! They've played a HUGE role in my life from an early start and really taking over by the time I was 12 or 13!

  2. I have a few of Snyder's books, but have yet to read them. I have heard amazing things, though (which is probably why I bought them).
