Teaser Tuesday #45 and Top Ten Tuesday #35


Teaser Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by Should Be Reading. Bloggers choose two
sentences out of our current read to peak others' curiosity.




The Nightmare Affair (The Arkwell Academy, #1) The Nightmare Affair by Mindee Arnett

  

Teaser:

She was one fo those mythic creatures who sat on your chest while you were alsleep and gave you bad dreams., the knd where you woke up struggleing to breather. Some stories said that Nightmares were demons (not true) .



Sixteen-year-old Dusty Everhart breaks into houses late at night, but not because she’s a criminal. No, she’s a Nightmare.

Literally.

Being the only Nightmare at Arkwell Academy, a boarding school for magickind, and living in the shadow of her mother’s infamy, is hard enough. But when Dusty sneaks into Eli Booker’s house, things get a whole lot more complicated. He’s hot, which means sitting on his chest and invading his dreams couldn’t get much more embarrassing. But it does. Eli is dreaming of a murder.

Then Eli’s dream comes true.

Now Dusty has to follow the clues—both within Eli’s dreams and out of them—to stop the killer before more people turn up dead. And before the killer learns what she’s up to and marks her as the next target.




Top Ten is an original feature/weekly meme created here at
The Broke and the Bookish that features a great bookish top ten every week.


Oh I like this week. Easy Peasy. Many of the YA Authors I really like have only written one series but if they wrote another... I would auto buy. Here is my list.
