From the book you’re currently reading, or one you just finished, tell us what made you SWOON. What got your heart pounding, your skin tingling, and your stomach fluttering. Shout it out on Twitter with the hashtag #YABound, post it here in the comments, or grab the adorable button above and share it on your blog! We want to know :-)

Here's mine:

His gaze traced the lines of my mouth, his eyes finally settling on mine. His breath filled my ears and I smelled the charcoal again as I leaned closer. He was just inches away, those pale green eyes still looking at me, watching. I couldn't help myself. I pressed my mouth to his. A warmth spread through my body and into my fingers as we moved into one another, his lips giving way.

Teaser Tuesday (#2): Eve by Anna Carey

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 (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!

 My Teaser:

"Right now they're sitting in their new houses that overlook the canals that fourteen-year-old boys dredged up, and they're feeding their babies that eighteen-year-old girls gave birth to, or they're skiing on their indoor ski slopes and eating at the restaurants at the tops of skyscrapers where orphans work for free. It's disgusting." He grimaced

"How did you escape?" I asked again. I thought of the horrors of that labor camp, of Asher alone in the wild with his legs pinned down, or boys as small as Silas carrying stones on their backs.
