B is for Book Review via Pictures!

If you want to know more about the A to Z Blogging Challenge, click here.

With the police at a loss, can Violet use her ability to stop the killer,
or is she in danger of becoming his next victim?

This book had a sweet love story that I really enjoyed reading. So often you've got characters getting excited about the new, mysterious guy (or girl) and it was somewhat refreshing to have a character fall in love with someone they've known for years and years.

Ms Derting was pretty good at keeping me guessing who the serial killer was, and just when I thought I'd possibly figured it out -- wait, no, that can't be it... And it wasn't!

I think Jay is my second favourite love-interest-from-a-YA-novel -- after Jace from The Mortal Instruments -- which is interesting because Jace and Jay are VERY different characters.

(I think this is the shortest review I've ever posted. Hope you enjoyed!)



In other news....

I've reached 300 followers!!

I sat at 296 for sooo long I didn't think it was going to happen, so thank you and welcome to Tim, Marsha, Monica and (of course, the 300th) Kristine! I appreciate all your "follows" ;-)

Teaser Tuesday (13): The Body Finder

Title: The Body Finder
Author: Kimberly Derting


Thick, pale, and bloated skin surrounded milky-white eyes that stared out at Violet.
...
Violet screamed at the same time that Jay reached her and saw what she was looking at. He wrapped his arms around her from behind and dragged her away in search of help.


I am LOVING this book! If it weren't for the fact that I'm already sick from lack of sleep I would have stayed up till the early hours of the morning to finish this in one go!
(And the cover is so pretty! I love it!)



Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme hosted by MizB of Should be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:
  • Grab your current read.
  • Open to a random page.
  • Share two "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 and author too so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR lists if they like your teasers!
