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.

This teaser is when I fell in love with the Warrior! Lol.

"Maybe she's afraid of her own brother.

A bit of fury coils in my gut as I remember that he first proposed a marriage between himself and my sister. If he ever has the occasion to loom over Victoria like that, I'll turn him into a pile of ash piece by piece, starting with his favorite appendage." p 91*

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: Top Ten Books I'd Read on the Beach

*in no particular order

10. THE EXTINCTION TRIALS by S.M. Wilson--a TBR book, as most of these are with teens trapped on an island that's scary!
9. SCREAMS YOU HEAR by James Morris--this one is another thriller mystery that takes place on an island!
8. HAPPILY AND MADLY by Alexis Bass--another thriller that seems to have beachy or water themes!

7. STARS by Colleen Oakes--back again with this title! Naturally, Neverland is an island, so lots of water there too! Lol.
6. THE TELLING by Alexandra Sirowy--about to be republished, I still need to read this one. With the OG cover I was getting watery thriller vibes!
5. CAPTIVATE by Vanessa Garden--one I've read but need to re-read so I can finish the series! This takes place UNDERWATER!

4. ECHOES by Alices Reeds--another one I actually read! This was a creepy thriller with two teens trapped on an island with some seriously scary stuff happening! Think LOST!
3. NIL by Lynne Matson--another TBR read with more teens trapped on a creepy island!
2. CURSED CRUISE by Victoria Fulton & Faith McClaren--one I can't wait to read after loving their first book! The title says it all!

1. JAWS by Peter Benchly--for the irony! Lol. Plus the movie turned 50 this year, so it's the perfect time to read it!
