sentences out of our current read to peak others' curiosity.
Unloved by Jennifer Snyder
Teaser:
I sat the box down on my rickety twin bed, and turned to face her. The bruises my dad had left in his wake begun to fade from her face, but the sight of them-past and present, hers and my own- would forever be scars on my soul.
Julie Porter learned the hard way that trust is something which must be earned and not something to be given out lightly, those who say they love you are those who hold the power to hurt you most, and best friends can help you survive anything—until they move away.
Nick Owen knows a thing or two about a hard life. At a young age Nick learned how to take a hit and to make lemonade out of the lemons life tossed his way. Returning home after nearly two years of being away, all Nick cares about now is protecting his mom from the abusive hands of his father and catching up with his best friend—the girl who lived across the street, the girl he can’t seem to stop thinking about.
Finally reunited after two years apart, Nick and Julie are about to learn that age does nothing to protect you from life’s trials and tribulations, heartache and loss, but maybe together they’ll find a way to survive.
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.
Top Ten books before I was a blogger. I read so many..... hmmm....
Top Ten Books I read before I was a blogger:
1. Angus, Thongs, and Full Frontal Snogging by Georgia Nicholson
2. The Named by Marianne Curley
3. Twilight by Stephanie Meyer- I really hate that Twilight Fans get a bad vibe now. I liked the book and I should not have to feel ashamed of that.
4. Deadly Little Secret by Laurie Faria Stolarz
5. The Body Finder by Kimberly Derting
6. Wicked Lovely by Melissa Marr
7. Lament by Maggie Stiefvater
8. Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins
9. White Cat by Holly Black
10. Infinity by Sherrilyn Kenyon
Whats is on your list?
Yeah Twilight definitely gets a bad rap. It was the book that brought me back into reading. Is it my fave book, nope. But there shouldn't be shame attached to it.
