I'm reading Dan Brown's Inferno this week. I still didn't know what I feel about this one. I hope this one is going to be better than the last one.

The bell rang, and I looked at Noah as he leaned in and brushed his lips against my ear.
He whispered into my hair, "It was worth it."
- page 250, The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer, Michelle Hodkin




I'm reading The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer this week. I am still at the beginning of the story, so I'm not sure what to feel about it so far except that I'm loving the mysterious setting. But then I accidentally read some spoiler while flipping through some random pages DX Now I'm very curious to know what was happening to Mara.

When he'd played the last chord, the room felt silent. Everyone, and i mean everyone, was watching him, watching me. Or watching me watching him, waiting to see what we'd do next - page 218, Rhymes with Cupid by Anna Humphrey




I missed Teaser Tuesday for a couple weeks, and now I'm back!

I borrowed Rhymes with Cupid by Anna Humphrey from my cousin. She actually recommended me to read this one. I finished within one sitting and I really like it. The story was so cute that I think I was grinning like an idiot all the way while I was reading this.

My teaser this week:

In the end, her story made Hector think about his opinion on love: why do we go on being in love with someone who made us suffer? And why do we fall out of love with someone who cares about us?
- page 67, Hector and the Secrets of Love by François Lelord





I'm reading Hector and the Secrets of Love by François Lelord this week. I like the first book, Hector and the Search for Happiness and I was excited to get into Hector's journey in finding the secrets of love. The writing is a bit child-like style, but I really enjoy it.

My teaser this week:

It’s strange how life works: You want something and you wait and wait and feel like it’s taking forever to come. Then it happens and it’s over and all you want to do is curl back up in that moment before things changed. – page 55, Delirium by Lauren Oliver



I'm reading Delirium by Lauren Oliver this week. I had this book on my shelf for a while but was afraid to read it. You see, I've heard lots of positive reviews from my friends that I was afraid that I might not like the book as they did (it happen to me sometimes). But I'm glad that delirium wasn't disappointing. I enjoyed reading the book so far.

I'm reading Blood Red Road by Moira Young this week. I've heard so much about this one. Mostly positive.  The language is a bit weird at first, but I'm liking the heroine, Saba, so far.

My teaser this week:

Isabel had told me that her mother, a doctor, once said that terminal patients often seemed to have an eerie sense of their condition, even before diagnosed. At the time, I'd scoffed, but now I knew what she meant - because I felt it. - page 185, Linger by Maggie Stievater.
I'm reading Linger, the second book of The Wolves of Mercy Falls by Maggie Stievater this week. It's a bit confusing with alternating point of view since there are more characters in this book - Grace, Sam, Cole and Isabel.

So, what's your teaser Tuesday?

He fanned the pages of his book, looking for something. “Now, what does the average person desire? That is the question.”
The Hispanic woman spoke. “I think that it is peace for the world." -
11%, Coffeehouse Angel by Suzanne Selfors.
It has been quite some times since I last join this meme. I was a bit busy with things. Anyway, my little sister recommends this book to me. She said that this is a good book. The sweetest, fluffiest read she had. And my cousin second that. I decided to give it a try! I'm enjoying the book so far :)

I'm reading The Selection by Kiera Cass this week. I've seen a few good reviews on the book, and decided to give it a try. I still am not sure what to think of this book.

“It’s a tradition here: we wrap a kiss and leave it on the bed of whoever we’re interested in.” 
“So you’re interested.” I mumbled into her hair. - Page 241, A Confusion of Princes by Garth Nix
My sister said that I've been reading too much books with female as the main character. This week, I'm reading A Confusion of Princes by Garth Nix as its main character is a male. I didn't expect that this book would be a science fiction! But, it's kind of interesting to read something I don't usually read :)

My teaser this week:


What if I don't know the truth? What if my feelings slip through my fingers like water every time I try to grab hold of them? - page 145, Wolfsbane, by Andrea Cremer







Actually, having Tom for a husband means I can watch brides and groom kiss, laugh and embraces, and I can smile to myself, knowing I'm going home to a great man. So when there are wedding glitches, I remind myself: I'm helping people get married - page 2, Fatally Flaky by Diane Mott Davidson

I'm currently reading two books! Wolfsbane, the second book of Nightshade series is very interesting so far. Too bad, there's not much of Ren!

It has been quite some times since I read any cozy mystery. I heard that Diane Mott Davidson is good. But, I found out that Fatally Flaky is actually the 15th book of "A Goldy Bear Culinary Mystery". Yikes!

Damned aggravating, how difficult it had been to tear his eyes from her, how, from the moment he had set foot inside Franklin Burgess's tent, Huntley had been aware of her, every movement, every word, even, for the love of the devil, her breathing. 
His only explanation was that it had been six months since he'd taken a woman to bed. - 9%, Warrior, Zoe Archer
I haven't post my teaser for weeks! I've been busy these past few weeks. Anyway... I'm reading a Historical Romance this week (which I don't usually read)! But, warrior sounds exciting! Huntley sounds gorgeous!
