My Teasers:

All These Things I've Done by Gabrielle Zevin

'Are you still at Holy Trinity?' Mr Kipling asked after a brief pause.
'Yes.'
'I'll come right down and meet you there. Hold tight, Anya. We'll get this sorted out.'
At that moment, the door to the secretary's office opened. 'Found her!' Detective Jones yelled. 'She's on the phone!' Then he turned to me. 'We're going to need to take you down to the precinct for further questioning. Your boyfriend just slipped into a coma. They think he might die.'
'Ex-boyfriend,' I said quietly.
'Anya?' Mr Kipling said. 'Still there?'
'Yes, Mr Kipling,' I replied. 'Could you meet me at the police station instead?' - Page 102

I do like this book as loads of things keep happening and your never sure who it is that has it out for Anya. I just wish that it didn't drag in places.

          Starters by Lissa Price

"Thanks." I leaned in until our heads touched. I wanted so much to stay with this moment, this hard-won truce, but I had to tell him the truth. "I wish I could stay. But I'm just here for a couple of hours. I have to go back to work."
He let go of my hand. "Why?" His eyes welled up.
"Because I'm not done." I put my arms around him and held him tight. "I need you to be brave for me. because once we get through this, we're going to have a home again."
He held on to me "Really?" he whispered, his voice cracking. "Promise?"
It broke my heart.
"I promise." - Pages 54 and 55

I kind of like this book but nothing huge has happened yet which I wish it would as then I think it will be a great book. It's just a bit boring at the minute.


Both these books are arcs so therefore subject to change.
