Gerard's:
Under a black-purple sky, a chariot is drawn by six angels harnessed like horses. Blood and sweat stream down their shoulders and chests where the harness cuts into them.From page 33 of End of Days by Susan Ee.
"I'm spending the night at Genevieve's. Tell Mom I'm at Brendan's playing some new game or something."From page 21 of More Happy Than Not by Adam Silvera.
Karen's:
"I demand to know," she began, but the Captain of the Guard pulled her back from the prince with spine-snapping force. "I wasn't going to kill him, you buffoon."
From page 12 of Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas. (Click link for Gerard's review.)
One of the most important things you can do as a leader is to develop other leaders. Those leaders will affect hundreds, if not thousands, of other people.From page 4 of Leadership Lessons from West Point edited by Major Doug Crandall.
Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of A Daily Rhythm. Anyone can play along, so I thought I would play for fun! Just pick two sentences from the book you are reading.
Happy Reading!
The West Point quote is so true.
ReplyDeleteI didn't love Throne of Glass but I kept reading the series and the next two books are better.
I like the middle two, those both look fun. Have a wonderful Tuesday!

ReplyDeleteNice variety of teasers. My YA teaser this week is from Battlesaurus: Rampage at Waterloo by Brian Falkner. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteThe End of Days teaser really drew me in. Someone else had posted a teaser from another book of hers and now I'm really interested in trying those books.
ReplyDeleteThe narrator in Silvera's book is up to no good. LOL
The quote from the last book mentioned is so true. That's why it is important to have good leaders--and not bad ones.
Aw, the Throne of Glass quote makes me want to go reread it. :) And I have *got* to start that Susan Ee series soon! I feel like the last one to read it. My teaser is here: http://bit.ly/1fkO4Ft
