Teaser Tuesday (1)

Image
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 (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! Here is my teaser :). And now is as good a time as any to say that she was beautiful. In the dark beside me she smelled of sweat and sunshine and vanilla, and on that thin mooned night i could see little more than her silhouette except for when she smoked, when the burning cherry of the cigarette washed her face in pale red light. But even in the dark, i could see her eyes - fierce emeralds. She had the kind of eyes that predisposed you to supporting her every endea

Small Book Haul

Hola!, i recently got some books and something special that i wanted to share haha, it made me so happy when i saw it that i ran and bought it haha. Two of these books i got in the discount book store for very little and you will be able to see which those books are since they don't look new lol. The book Thief by Markus Zusak Lord of the rings - fellowship of the ring by J.R.R. Tolkien One Day by David Nicholls The curious incident of the dog in the night time by Mark Hadden I got this version of the Book Thief and i think it's just so gorgeous, I've read one book by Markus Zusak and it is I am the messenger, i really enjoyed that book, but it's been a while since i read it (My English class while i was in Iceland had to read the book), and i want to read it again, but for now i can finally read The Book Thief. There was a different version of Lord of the rings that i wanted but i got this one and when i checked inside the book  i saw so many beautiful il

Big Book Haul

Image
Hey, everyone!, I've been buying books lately and not doing book hauls at all, so i decided to put all the ones i bought this year in this book haul, i was just going to put the books that i recently bought in Croatia, but while i was looking through my books i realized that i hadn't done a haul in a while, so i didn't gt all of these books on the same day or week, also some of them were gifts, and two i got in a giveaway. I will put links to the books, you just click on the name of the book and the author if you are interested in the book and it will take you to goodreads, usually i put all the information with pictures of the books, and release dates and summary but this book haul is way too long for that. The books that i bought in Croatia- 1. Twenties Girl by Sophie Kinsella 2. Krvava Zrtva by J.R. Ward (Book 6 in the black dagger brotherhood series in Croatian) 3. Kraljica Tame by J.R. Ward (Book 2, also in Croatian) 4. Nocni Lov by J.R. Ward ( Book 1, Croatian

This is a pizza from the pizza place, i ordered a Mexican one, it's spicy but not like oh my god spicy haha, and my mom got a delicious one too, the pizzas there are really thin and that is what i love about this pla
