Teaser Tuesday – April 19th, 2016

Teaser Tuesday is a weekly meme currently being hosted by MizB @ Books and a Beat. All are welcome to participate!

Rules:

• Grab your current read.
• Open to a random page.
• Share two ‘teaser’ sentences from somewhere on that page.
• BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! You don’t want to give too much away so as to not ruin the book for others!
• Share the title and author so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR lists if they like your teasers.

Physical Book

Finnikin of the Rock (Lumatere Chronicles, #1) by Melina Marchetta

“Is she friend of foe?” Moss asked. “Because she is a beast at cards, and at times I feel as if the power of the mightiest of gods is in her eyes.”

For those of you who follow me on Goodreads, you will have realized that I actually started Passenger the other night… Well, I switched. I just want some high fantasy right now, you know? I’m being a very naughty Hype or Like Friday group host.

eBook Copy

The Reflections of Queen Snow White by David Meredith

She wanted her continued existence to be more than it was just as much today as in her turbulent childhood. It was that same amorphous desire to do something, anything to better her situation that compelled her to gaze yet again into the magical looking glass.

I’ll be honest that when the author contacted me to review his book, I wasn’t really sure what to expect. However, I’m really enjoying this story! It’s such an interesting retelling that shows you what happens to fairytales after the happily ever after. And sometimes, maybe it’s not always that happy.

If you participate in Teaser Tuesday, then please leave a comment with the link to your post. If you don’t, I’d still love to read a tidbit of your current read so feel free to leave it in the comments. What do you think about my teasers this week? Sound interesting? Boring? Dumb?
