The Underdog
(Better With You #3)
by Briar Prescott


How to have sex with a prosthetic leg?
Things I never thought I'd type into Google, but here we are.
I've made a crucial mistake in the wording.
"Oh no," I mutter as the results get increasingly weirder.
"No, no, no."
I quickly close the tab.

The Parting Glass
(In A Dark Wood #2)
by Josh Lanyon

"Happiness was too thin, too watered down a word to describe that wellspring of feeling. Joy. That was the word. A blaze of delight that almost defied definition."

Crash (Visions #1) by Lisa McMann

Hardcover, 256 pages

Published January 8th 2013 by Simon Pulse

My Teaser:

Outside of forced projects, we steer clear of one another, because obviously I'm not going to follow him around. Much. It's not like I don't have other shit to do besides moon around after a boy. I mean, I watch him, though. Like, all the time, but I'm not a creep or anything. And I eavesdrop.

Second Chance (First Comes Love #2) by Katie Kacvinsky

Paperback, 238 pages

Published October 31st 2012 by CreateSpace

"Maybe I’ve watched movies like The Cutting Edge and When Harry Met Sally and A Lot Like Love and Ever After and While You Were Sleeping and Say Anything (just to name a few) one too many times. Is my hopelessly romantic idea of love just an unrealistic collection of Hollywood movie clips? Have I convinced myself that my love life could mirror the high-intensity story plots of fictional characters? I guess I did. Huh."

Unspoken (The Lynburn Legacy #1) by Sarah Rees Brennan

Hardcover, 370 pages

Published September 11th 2012 by Random House Books for Young Readers

"A leather jacket," Kami said as he shrugged into it. "Aren't you trying a little too hard to play into certain bad boy cliches?"

"Nah," said Jared. "You're thinking of black leather. Black leather's for bad boys. It's all in the color. You wouldn't think I was a bad boy if I was wearing a pink leather jacket."

~page 99

I just finished reading Unspoken and it was awesome! Now, how long do I have to wait for the next book? ~off to scour the internet looking for a release date....

Tune In Tuesday is currently being hosted by Kate's Tales Of Books And Bands.

AND because I have One Direction songs stuck in my head from being played 24 hours a day - not by ME, but by my 15 year old daughter - I have to use this song to go along with the book Unspoken. It's just 2 little lines that apply to the book, but I still had it stuck in my head the whole time I was reading!

Get out, get out, get out of my mind
And come on, come into my life

Please don't shoot me if you get this song stuck in your head too!

"You intoxicate me, Lorelei McAlister. You will be my downfall."

This quote is from an eARC and is subject to change. AND I'm not even going to tell you who said it! You'll have to read the book to find out. I am really enjoying reading this book. It's all action, action, action, tons of secrets, romance, humor, and a lot of snark. Not to mention 2 really hot guys. It comes out today, so you really need to get yourself a copy and read it!

Dangerous Boy by Mandy Hubbard
Hardcover
262 pages
Published September 4th 2012 by Razorbill

He stares straight at me with that intense smile of his, and my heart lodges in my throat. "Your time is nearly up, Harper."

That is the first line of Dangerous Boy, which I just finished reading. The story is pretty creepy and weird and I think it's a perfect book for this time of year.

Published March 13th 2012 by Hyperion Book CH

"You can call yourself whatever you want." ~ Mom
"Okay. Sophie Awesome Sparkle-Princess it is." ~ Sophie

Sophie is back and full of wit and snark! I love all of the humor tossed in with the life or death situations. I put off reading Spell Bound until recently, and now I'm really sad to see this series end.

The Raven Boys (Raven Cycle #1) by Maggie Stiefvater


Hardcover, 408 pages
Expected publication: September 18th 2012 by Scholastic Press


Blue had two rules: Stay away from boys, because they're trouble, and stay away from raven boys, because they were bastards. ~ page 81


"Thanks for coming, Jane," Gansey said.
Blue shot him a dirty look. "You're welcome, Dick." ~ page 265

There is a seriousness in The Raven Boys due to the dire warnings about Blue causing her true love to die. (That is not a spoiler - it's in the book's synopsis.) But we also get a bit of cheeky humor, inside jokes, and one-liners that keep the story from being too heavy.

I will miss you. ~ pg. 284
