Book Teaser: Bad Girls Don't Die

I finished up Bad Girls Don't Die by Katie Alender last night. Will have review up later but I must admit reading it around midnight with a heavy thunderstorm outside does add to the creepiness of the book.

Teaser 1
"I'm sorry," I said. "I don't really think it's your business that my little sister is eccentric."
"Eccentric?" Megan said. She looked genuinely surprised. "Alexis...your little sister is possessed."

Teaser 2
"Something really weird is happening," I said.
I thought about the story, the way it poured out of my mouth without permission. About the basement door swinging open. The cloud of cold air in the dining room.
With a start I remembered the lights we'd seen outside the night before.

Book Teaser: The Goddess Test

I have a pretty crazy day today...taking the kids to get their last series of shots than a dinner party later this evening and also visiting my parents for a while...Hectic...so a quick book teaser will have to do for today.

I just finished up reading The Goddess Test by Aimee Carter due to release on April 19 of this year so here is a couple of snippets from the book. Enjoy!
I will have the review up next Tuesday.

"It's always been just Kate and her mom--and now her mother is dying. Her last wish? To move back to her childhood home. So Kate's going to start at a new school with no friends, no other family and the fear her mother won't live past the fall.

Then she meets Henry. Dark. Tortured. And mesmerizing. He claims to be Hades, god of the Underworld--and if she accepts his bargain, he'll keep her mother alive while Kate tries to pass seven tests.

Kate is sure he's crazy--until she sees him bring a girl back from the dead. Now saving her mother seems crazily possible. If she succeeds, she'll become Henry's future bride, and a goddess."

Teaser 1
"So you die." The gravity of the situation hit me hard, and I stared off to the side, unable to look at him. It wasn't just my mother's life that was riding on my ability to pass these tests.
"I fade" he corrected. "The living die, and their souls remain in the Underworld for eternity. However, my kind do not have souls. We cease to exist completely, without a shred of our former selves remaining. One cannot die if one was never alive to begin with."

Teaser 2
"Eleven girls are already dead beacause of you. Don't turn Kate into the twelfth because of your selfishness."

I'm in the mood to blog but wasn't sure about what so i'll do a teaser for the current book i'm reading. And please feel free to participate in the comments section below.

RULES are simple:
***Grab the book you are currently reading and share two teasers it can be as short as a sentence or as long as a paragraph.

***No Spoilers

I'm Currently reading Archangels Consort by author Nalini Singh.I never really read any of her books until I came across the Guild Hunter Series and so far loving it.I will try to get a review up for it by this weekend.

Synopsis from Goodreads-Vampire hunter Elena Deveraux and her lover, the lethally beautiful archangel Raphael, have returned home to New York only to face an uncompromising new evil…

A vampire has attacked a girls’ school—the assault one of sheer, vicious madness—and it is only the first act. Rampant bloodlust takes vampire after vampire, threatening to make the streets run with blood. Then Raphael himself begins to show signs of an uncontrolled rage, as inexplicable storms darken the city skyline and the earth itself shudders.

The omens are suddenly terrifyingly clear.

An ancient and malevolent immortal is rising. The violent winds whisper her name: Caliane. She has returned to reclaim her son, Raphael. Only one thing stands in her way: Elena, the consort who must be destroyed…

Teasers
"That was when she saw the eyes on the walls, the vampires crouching up on ledges, ready to pounce. She turned just in time to take out two behind her. Christ, how many of them were there? Then there was no more time to think-her wings made her so vulnerable on the ground that she couldn't afford to let them get close."

"You are here to kill my mother." It was no surprise, but he wondered of her speaking to him of it again."I am here to kill a monster."
