Teaser Tuesday: The Iron Knight

Teaser 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 "teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page

BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! Share the title & author, too, so that others can add the book to their TBR Lists!


This week my teaser comes from The Iron Knight, the latest installment in Julie Kagawa's Iron Fey Series. My regular blogging and Goodreads buddies know that I love this series, it's the only fairy series I'm hooked on, and I gush about it to anyone who expresses an interest! I'm about a third of the way through this one and it is just as good as I knew it would be! This is from page 129 of my e-ARC, and this scene was so intense, I had to share a snippet from it:


     "Close your eyes."
     I didn't want to. I wanted to stay in this dream almost as much as I wanted to find a soul, even though I knew this wasn't real. But, almost against my will, I felt my eyes slip shut, and a moment later her lips brushed against mine, a featherlight touch that pulled my stomach inside out.
     "Goodbye, Ash," she whispered. "Be happy."
     And I awoke.





Are you teased? Prince Ash is one of my favorite characters in today's YA scene.
Got a teaser? Please share your link so I can stop by!

    I guess I am the only one who never heard of this series, but that is not surprising to me, I have never read this genre. Fantasy is not a genre I enjoy. However, I am glad you and so many others do.

    Thanks for visiting my TT today.
