It’s been forever since I’ve done one of these posts. My 50-Day Bookish Challenge posts have mostly held my attention for the past few weeks. Some of you may remember that I had started reading the thirteenth and final book in The Hollows series by Kim Harrison, The Witch With No Name, back in…April. Damn, has it really been that long?!?! Anyway, I read a good chunk and then just kind of stopped. So now I’ve been in the mood to get back to it, however I’m starting over because…yeah, apparently it’s been awhile.

My teaser:

 


The coffee smell coming from the wax-coated cup was nauseatingly familiar, and I held it listlessly as I sat in the chair I’d pulled into the carpeted hallway. The oil-like sheen on the surface caught the fluorescent lights, showing the shake in my hand.

Teaser Tuesdays #55 – April 25th

Ughhhh, I haven’t posted in forever. Forgive me!!! >.< Life’s been rather hectic these past two months with spring break, my whole family being sick or having surgery (or both) and then my sister’s wedding on top of that. But I only have one more week of classes until summer break. I am so freakin’ happy! As usual, I hope to be more active during the summer months but, unfortunately, that doesn’t always happen…^^;

I finally got around to starting the thirteenth and final book in The Hollows series by Kim Harrison, The Witch With No Name. It took me long enough to begin reading it and I have to admit it’s been a bit slow going. I keep getting distracted by other things. But I will finish it! Sooner rather than later, I’m hoping.

My teaser:

 

The sound of the water through the open windows echoed my intent as I sat cross-legged atop the slate counter within a protective pentagram and carefully etched an ever-smaller spiral into the bottom of the tiny bottle. I barely breathed, my entire world cycled down to the golden glow of glass and the thin tracing of silver flowing from the stylus.
