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.

Couldn't decide between two teasers, so you're getting two today!

"'Are you coming, or do I need to remind my army of the feel of living flesh?' He still perches on the wall, one eyebrow raised.

Oh he's going to be a f***ing delight of a husband." p 36

"That sh**-eating smirk is the last thing that disappears as he bursts into his flock of ravens, leaving me alone on the side of the mountains.

I am going to murder him.

That is, If I survive these bloody stairs." p 127

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 Favorite Secondary Characters

*in no particular order

10. PUCK--when Puck first stepped on the page, I knew he'd be a favorite! He brought some much needed humor to the seriously dire moments of this series!
9. OSCAR--love Lily's little hobgoblin that takes on a potbellied pig form!
8. CASSANDRA--I was always a little sad that Kelley Armstrong never got a full novel length idea of Cassandra. She was one of the few vampire women that I recall from the series and I just wanted a little more of her.

7. JENKS--I love that smart-mouthed pixy!
6. EMME--as the youngest sister, I connected with Emme. Reallllllly hoping Cecy can get back to writing Emme's book soon! That novella was killer!
5. DEE--loved Dee! She was the perfect BFF to Katy!

4. JANCO (& ARI)--I positively LOVED Janco! He made me laugh so much throughout this series! Ari was his perfect counterpart too! It's refreshing to see two pals in a book and they are just friends!
3. JACKAL--I always found his character interesting! I had hoped that maybe Julie would write a book starring him just because I think he had a lot of growth in the trilogy and I always just wondered what he was going to do at the end!
2. LALA--I loved her character too! She was an intriguing one and I can't wait to see what happens in Stephanie's upcoming novella where I think she's supposed to make an appearance.

1. LUC--I put Luc here just because I feel like we don't know if he's appearing in the new novella or not! He wasn't a favorite character at the start of the series but I did find his path and (possible?) growth interesting. I'd be curious to see what he's up to in the aftermath novella!
