Teaser Tuesday (15)


Teaser Tuesday is a bookish meme hosted by MizB at Should Be Reading. This week I'm reading:

The Dead-Tossed Waves by Carrie Ryan

"I don't take the same care my mother did when I decapitate the Mudo. I don't want to think about them as anything other than monsters."
Page 122

I'm going to be honest: I have only read the first 20 pages so far, but I am absolutely hooked into the story. It's ridiculous how good I know this is going to be. The first book, The Forest of Hands and Teeth, was amazing and I have really high hopes for this one. It makes me giddy thinking about sitting down with this book tonight :). I'm such a nerd.

    I just finished the Forest of Hands and Teeth last week and have been debating reading this one - your comments and teaser quotes definitely have me leaning more towards reading it now :)

    Thanks!

    Hmm interesting teaser, I'm still not sure whether I'll give the Dead-Tossed Waves a go since I wasn't overwhelmed by FoHaT (whoa what an acronym!) but maybe in time I can be persuaded as the unanswered questions will probably bug me to the point I crack and just read it.

    Hmmm... Decapitation. Interesting way to be introduced to a book lol

    I've been looking at this one, but I didn't know that there was another book before it. I guess that makes me more aware of how much more we need to think about the information we give (or don't give!) in our reviews.

    Here's my Teaser Tuesday post.

    I loved this book. I read it last weekend and stayed up late finishing it because I couldn't put it down. I am glad you are enjoying it.

    Great teaser!
