Teaser Tuesday (13)

This meme is brought to you weekly by MizB over at 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 and the author, too, so other TT participants can add the book to their TBR List if they like your teaser!

My Teaser

She draws me closer and it's everything I can do not to sweep her into my arms and love her properly. Finally, she pulls away. I close my eyes and we stand with our foreheads pressed together. Neither of us move for a long minute, but, finally, I hear her start to breathe again.

BWAHA, it's very obvious as to why I chose this one! ;) Man oh man, I cannot believe this series has already come to its end. I'm like going through withdrawals right now; trying to take my very precious time reading it but I can't help myself! I have about 100+ pages left. Sad face. I'm almost done! How am I going to live without no more Luc Cain?! WAAAAH.

I love this series so much and my heart's having a hard time dealing with the fact that it's over....boo. Well, if you have a TT this week, you what to do! Leave candy, drinks, chips, gum, skittles, Teaser Tuesday links, starbursts, snicker bars, and all that good stuff in the comment section below and I'll love you for evah! ;)

In My Mailbox (10)

IMM is a weekly meme hosted by Kristi at The Story Siren with some inspiration from Alea at Pop Culture Junkie where we post about books we have received during the week via mailbox, local library, or store bought, etc.

_________________________

Wow, it's been nearly a year since my last In My Mailbox - seriously! My last IMM was on February 2nd, 2011. In my last IMM blog post, I started doing vlogs and for some reason since then I stopped. Anywho, let's get to the present. These are the books I received since last Saturday - January 7th, 2012.

Since Saturday, I received a package(s) every day up until Wednesday. On Friday evening, I went to my B&N and purchased the Soul Screamers omnibus, Volume One for the Soul Screamers reading challenge! I also purchased Switched by Amanda Hocking because I have been wanting to read this series since forever and I absolutely love the new covers! They're so gorgeous! :)

And the most exciting package I received this week was from Lisa Desrochers! Right when I saw the package with her name on it, I knew right away what book was within! I couldn't tear through the package wrap fast enough! I am such a freakin' fangirl of this brilliant series! I'm a bit sad to see it end but I'm totally excited at the same time! I picked it up last night and I'm already two hundred pages in...waaah; almost done! Eeep!

I purchased Soul Screamers and Switched this past Friday and I absolutely cannot wait to dive into those two as well! Aaah, so excited! Anyway, I apologize for the messy/unorganized format of this post! It has been so long since my last IMM post that I don't even really know how to format my list of books, my thank you's, and what not, lol!

Lastly,

What did you receive in your mailbox this week?
