I sacrificed it, for you. It was too late for me, by the time you were back on your feet.

Then I see her eyes. they are the eyes of a ghost, a shell of a human.

Karen's:
The rage that had consumed her that day felt strangely distant now. Although her parents had certainly been betrayed, they were alive.

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.
Marc Bowman is a sought after consultant and a software designer who has a job at a major tech company that his wife works at too. Life is good. Monday comes and he is surprised when he is let go, but that turns out to be the least of his problems.
RUN by Andrew Grant is a wild ride! Marc finds trouble at every turn and things go from bad to worse! I loved the action in this book and it is full of surprises!

FOUR—A Divergent Collection by
Veronica Roth is written from FOUR’s perspective and gives his background and
view on things. It’s been quite a while since I finished reading the Divergent
series so It was enjoyable to read this book for me. It brought back lots
of good memories. My favorite part of this book was reading about FOUR’s
initiation into Dauntless. Also, this book gave me a greater appreciation
for the Abnegation faction. I recommend this to anyone who has finished
the series: Divergent, Insurgentand Allegiant.

In March I made a huge discovery! Thanks to my friend Camilla, I saw her post about her new channel on Facebook called Our Bookish Obsession and checked it out. She is very nice and is doing it together with a friend which is different than most. I encourage you to check out her videos.
I found on YouTube there is a whole lot of people who make videos about books. They discuss books, come up with fun book tags (in blogland they were called mimis), give tours of their bookshelves and all sorts of book-related videos. The community is called BookTube and I am now officially a Booktuber. If you are a booktuber, please leave a link to your channel or a specific one of your videos in the comments below so I can visit you!
In trying to find other Booktubers, I discovered a whole group on Twitter using #booktube and #booktubers. Not only that, but one of the booktubers told me there is a group on Goodreads and I can even post my channel link there. Of course, I'd love for you to visit my channel and leave a comment or even subscribe! You can find my channel on YouTube by putting in kzemek in the search box. Currently, I have a giveaway going on through April 22.
I am still in the process of finding the best place and setup for taping my videos. We do not get a lot of sunlight in Cleveland before I go to work and in the evenings so lighting is my biggest challenge in making my videos. I am also experimenting on getting the right distance from the camera and getting it at the right height but I'll get there pretty soon, I hope.
This has given me new inspiration for doing videos. I am currently working on doing a "Divergent" book tag and hope to get that taped and edited this weekend for LionsandTigersandbooksohmy.
This post is in response to Mama's Losin' It's Writer's Workshop prompt: Share something you learned in March. Why not go check out her prompts and link up too?
Survivors--Storm of Dogs by Erin Hunter is about a group of dogs called the "Wild Pack." They live a good happy life and they all have their role to play to help the pack. They live in fear of another pack of dogs called "The Fierce Dogs" who are killers.
This is a fantastic read! The writing is very well done and the interaction between the dogs in the Wild Pack is really good. It's a page turner and I enjoyed the action in it very much as well as the ending! I certainly plan to read more by this author!
