W.W.W. Wednesday

W.W.W. is a weekly feature hosted by Should Be Reading. Visit their site to see how to participate... or just see below because its pretty self-explanatory. I usually do Waiting on Wednesday, but I feel like I'm running out of things to be waiting on so I'm skipping this week until I do some more book-searching.

  • What have you just finished reading?
Beautiful Creatures by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl
I enjoyed this book alot - I posted a review on it recently - check it out, and let me know what you thought (or if you havent read it, if you're thinking about reading it).

  • What are you currently reading?
Pandemonium by Lauren Oliver
Enjoying it aso far but I'm only about 50 pages in. This is much shorter than Beautiful Creatures so hopefully I'll move through it a little faster.

  • What do you plan on reading next?
Well last week I was determined to read City of Lost Souls by Cassandra Clare, but when it came down to it, I picked up Pandemonium. So I'm not making any promises but I think I am either going to read Fever by Lauren DeStefano (especially so I can go pick up Sever) or Cinder by Marissa Meyer because the amazing reviews this book is getting are starting to get to me. Oh the pressure!!!


 
 
 
So what reads are on your list this week? Have any of you read my picks? What did you think - I'd love to hear from you!
 
Happy Reading :)

Teaser Tuesday and Top Ten Tuesday - 2013 Debuts I'm Looking Forward To

Hey hey, its TTT again, a weekly meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish!
This week's topic is: Top Ten 2013 Debuts I'm Looking Forward To.

This is a really tough one for me since I've been out of the loop for so long, and I dont really know any debut authors. So instead of participating, I'm asking, what books are you really excited for and what do you think I should read as someone who hasnt been very much in the reading/blogging world lately?
 
 
 
It's also Teaser Tuesday, hosted by Should Be Reading! Here's how to play along:
Grab your current read
• Open to a random page
• Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!
 
I'm currently finishing up The Perfect Hope by Nora Roberts, and here's a juicy teaser from that book:
" 'She's just using you.' But there were tears in Sheridan's eyes now, and the quaver of them in her voie. "She's using you and trying to wreck my marriage. You're the one who'll be sorry when she tosses you away for a bigger catch."
 
This one is a really good read, so if you want to see who is wrecking who's marriage, you might want to pick it up. I am hoping to be done with this book today, and hopefully a review up in the next day or two. What's your teaser this week?
 
Happy reading!
