I’m currently reading Midnight At The Bright Ideas Bookstore by Matthew Sullivan, another pending Netgalley title and one I’m really excited about finally reading. I love books about books! I’m not all that far into the story yet, but I definitely like the writing style so far and can’t wait to further dive into this story.

My teaser (17%):

“I guess it just bugs me to be paying so little, he added. Something’s wrong in the air, you know, when a book costs less than a bullet. Or a Coke. Values-wise.”

TEASER TUESDAYS is a weekly book meme hosted at The Purple Booker. To participate, just open the book you are currently reading to a random page, and choose two ‘teaser’ sentences from somewhere on that page. (no spoilers!)

I’m currently reading The Other Girl by Erica Spindler, a Netgalley ARC I was personally invited to read and just couldn’t resist. I’ve read her work in the past and enjoyed it, so I’m looking forward to properly dive into this new thriller today! I’ve heard good things about it and so far things are looking promising.

My teaser (1%):

“Randi took another long draw on the beer. Far, far away… that’s where she wanted to go. Someplace nobody looked at her that way again.”

Teaser Tuesdays #151 – August 1st: The Lying Game

TEASER TUESDAYS is a weekly book meme hosted at The Purple Booker. To participate, just open the book you are currently reading to a random page, and choose two ‘teaser’ sentences from somewhere on that page. (no spoilers!)

I’ve decided to finally pick up my ARC copy of The Lying Game by Ruth Ware despite the mixed reviews, mostly because I have been wanting to read one of her books for a long time now. I have a copy of her other two titles as well, but decided to read this one first since it has a lower rating and I’m hoping to avoid disappointments that way. Fingers crossed it will turn out to be a good one for me though!

My teaser (2%):

“I lie there for a moment thinking about the text, wondering who it could be. Who’d be texting at this hour? None of my friends would be awake…”

TEASER TUESDAYS is a weekly book meme hosted at The Purple Booker. To participate, just open the book you are currently reading to a random page, and choose two ‘teaser’ sentences from somewhere on that page. (no spoilers!)

First of all a big thank you to everyone who took time to read (and respond to) my post yesterday! ❤ Your advice was really helpful and I’m going to keep in mind all the tips to try and get out of my blogging slump as soon as possible. I’ve decided to stick with the weekly memes so far since they are fun and easy, so be ready for another teaser coming up below. 😉

I’m going to try and read the most urgent ARCs before the end of the month and then concentrate mostly on my own books in August… Most of them are thrillers, but I needed something different so I decided to pick up The Lost Book Of The Grail by Charlie Lovett. I’m not fully convinced yet, but it is still early days and the blurb shows a LOT of promise. Fingers crossed!

My teaser (5%):

“The library smelled substantial; it smelled of both life and death. The air was stale and still and Arthur felt the atmosphere of the place envelop him. He was home.”

Teaser Tuesdays #149 – July 18th: Stillhouse Lake

TEASER TUESDAYS is a weekly book meme hosted at The Purple Booker. To participate, just open the book you are currently reading to a random page, and choose two ‘teaser’ sentences from somewhere on that page. (no spoilers!)

I was stoked when I found out my Netgalley wish was actually granted and I lasted less than a week before I gave in and picked it up. After a long line of books that were either disappointing or didn’t manage to blow my mind completely, Stillhouse Lake by Rachel Caine seems to be doing the job and more. I know it’s still too early to tell, but what I’ve read so far is just. SO. DAMN. GOOD!!! I will definitely finish devouring this thriller before the end of today.

My teaser (12%):

“To this particular crop of vigilantes, the victims didn’t matter alive, and they don’t matter now. It’s an excuse to let their vilest impulses out to play. These trolls are no different from Mel in many ways – except that unlike him, they probably won’t act on those impulses. Probably.”

Teaser Tuesdays #148 – July 11th: Little Monsters

TEASER TUESDAYS is a weekly book meme hosted at The Purple Booker. To participate, just open the book you are currently reading to a random page, and choose two ‘teaser’ sentences from somewhere on that page. (no spoilers!)

I’ve only started reading Little Monsters by Kara Thomas, another pending ARC that is going to be published later this month, last night, but so far it definitely has all the signs of being a great read. The writing style is very engaging and I’m having a feeling I will finish this story in record time… I can’t wait to pick it up again today!

My teaser (3%):

“I take a deep breath to slow my suddenly skittish heart. I could call them, tell them I’m not coming, but they’ll just make fun of me for being scared.”

Teaser Tuesdays #147 – July 4th: Court Of Lions

TEASER TUESDAYS is a weekly book meme hosted at The Purple Booker. To participate, just open the book you are currently reading to a random page, and choose two ‘teaser’ sentences from somewhere on that page. (no spoilers!)

I’ve only just started reading Court Of Lions by Jane Johnson, but the beginning sounds promising. I visited Granada myself eight years ago and fell in love with the city and its history; the descriptions definitely bring back great memories. This story seems to be having two different storylines according to the blurb; one set in the present and one in 1492. I will be looking forward to continue this one today!

My teaser (3%):

“She would try phoning again in the morning; nothing to worry about. Even so, she felt a tug of anxiety for the rest of her shift, despite playing her part with professional smiles and small talk.”
