Readers' Advisory

For the Spring 2012 Semester, I will be using this blog to collect and archive the books I am reading for my Adult Readers' Advisory course.  Consider this a work in progress until May 20, 2012.  Feel free to comment and enjoy!

The complete list of books I read this semester is compiled under the category sjsu220.

Teaser Tuesdays: Ash

teasertuesdays31Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of 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 & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!

"As she walked, she touched the trees one by one as if she were marking the path, as if her handprints left glowing traces on the bark.  She felt a little guilty because she had lied to the huntress, and she wondered if the huntress had known, for Ash had not been lost that day."

p. 135 Ash by Malinda Lo

It pained me to do so, but I returned this book w/o finishing it. I hope to return to it some day, but at the moment there are so many books I want to read I didn't want to struggle through this one.

"He thought she had abandoned him, that she didn't care, that she didn't love him. He had no water, no light and he was afraid."
