Teaser Tuesday #41

TEASER

Hey everyone, and welcome back to my blog. I know it has been a REALLY LONG time since I last blogged, but I was in desperate need of a break from the book world. After reading over 60 books in 2017, I needed to take a short break from both reading and blogging. So basically, I haven’t read a book since November, nor have I touched a book since then. Although I am still going to be very busy with school and sports in 2018, I’m going to try my best to keep up with reading and blogging again.

Anyways, since it’s Tuesday, I thought I would come back with a classic “An Infinite Book World” post: Teaser Tuesday. You all know how much I love doing these posts and I am so excited to share my current read with you. SO, let’s get into it!

Dee shrugged and went over and grabbed a rake. She looked funny in her skirt and wedge sandals, which she insisted were the height of gardening couture, and dragged the rake over to me.”This is fun, thought.”

“Better than shopping?”

She seemed to consider it seriously, scrunching her nose. “Yeah, it’s more…relaxing.”

Okay, I have probably read this book more times than most people would, but it’s like a comfort read for me. I love the story, the characters and Jennifer L. Armentrout’s writing style. Literally, this book is the perfect mix of science-fiction, paranormal, romance and cliche-ness. I plan to re-binge-read this whole series over winter break and possibly even revamp some of my old reviews!

Obsidian (Lux, #1)Starting over sucks.

When we moved to West Virginia right before my senior year, I’d pretty much resigned myself to thick accents, dodgy internet access, and a whole lot of boring… until I spotted my hot neighbor, with his looming height and eerie green eyes. Things were looking up.

And then he opened his mouth.

Daemon is infuriating. Arrogant. Stab-worthy. We do not get along. At all. But when a stranger attacks me and Daemon literally freezes time with a wave of his hand, well, something… unexpected happens. 

The hot alien living next door marks me.

You heard me. Alien. Turns out Daemon and his sister have a galaxy of enemies wanting to steal their abilities, and Daemon’s touch has me lit up like the Vegas Strip. The only way I’m getting out of this alive is by sticking close to Daemon until my alien mojo fades. 

If I don’t kill him first, that is.

And that’s it for today’s post. Once again, thank you so much to all of you that still followed my blog through my hiatus. It means a lot to me that some of you still stayed by while I was gone. Anyways, don’t forget to like, comment and follow my blog to stay up to date with all of my future posts!

Happy Reading,

Teaser Tuesday #40

TEASER

Hey everyone, and welcome back for another Teaser Tuesday! Autumn is in full swing and I am totally getting Halloween vibes from my current read. Let me just say that my current read is a little bit “peculiar.” Let’s dive straight into the excerpt.

Puzzled,I shrugged it off and went out. It was pissing rain I soon left gray skies behind for the reliable sun of the loop. This time, however, there were no pretty girls waiting for me on the other side of the cairn – or anyone, for that matter. I tried not to be too disappointed, but I was, a little.

Yup, I am finally getting to Miss Peregrine’s Home For Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs! This has been on my TBR for months now, and I am so excited to be finally reading it. I was able to grab a copy of this for less than $5.00 earlier this year and just had to read it in October. With the creepy pictures, this is definitely a perfect October read.

Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children (Miss Peregrine’s Peculiar Children, #1)A mysterious island. An abandoned orphanage. A strange collection of curious photographs.

A horrific family tragedy sets sixteen-year-old Jacob journeying to a remote island off the coast of Wales, where he discovers the crumbling ruins of Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children. As Jacob explores its abandoned bedrooms and hallways, it becomes clear that the children were more than just peculiar. They may have been dangerous. They may have been quarantined on a deserted island for good reason. And somehow—impossible though it seems—they may still be alive.

A spine-tingling fantasy illustrated with haunting vintage photography, Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children will delight adults, teens, and anyone who relishes an adventure in the shadows.

And that is it for today! I hope you all enjoyed this post! If you are reading anything at the moment, definitely tell me down below! I would love to know what you all are reading. Other than that, be sure to like and follow to stay up to date with all of my future posts!
