"Saying 'I notice you're a nerd' is like saying, 'Hey, I notice that you'd rather be intelligent than be stupid, that you'd rather be thoughtful than be vapid, that you believe that there are things that matter more than the arrest record of Lindsay Lohan. Why is that?' In fact, it seems to me that most contemporary insults are pretty lame. Even 'lame' is kind of lame. Saying 'You're lame' is like saying 'You walk with a limp.' Yeah, whatever, so does 50 Cent, and he's done all right for himself."— John Green

Teaser Tuesday (59)


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 a few teaser sentences from somewhere on that page.
  • MAKE SURE NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (you don't want to give too much away and ruin the book for other readers)
Share the title and author too, so that other readers can add your book to their TBR list if they like your teaser!

Sapphire Blue
by Kerstin Gier
Publication Date: October 30, 2012


          There it was again, that familiar tone of command.  "Oh, I'm sure," I said. "I'll just nod and keep my mouth shut, the way a nice girl should."
           I instinctively, definitely  crossed my arms.  Why couldn't Gideon act normal?  First he kissed me (more than once, at that!), then he was back talking like a lordly Grand Master of the Guardians' Lodge again.  What was the idea?
(Pg. 22)

This is the second book in the The Ruby Red Trilogy  and let me just say it is as amazing as Ruby Red (Book 1).  The take on time-travel and birth gems is really very interesting.  I'm so happy that this series was translated from German so I could get to enjoy it!  I love Gwen and I can't wait to read more and find out what crazy adventures and predicaments she and Gideon find themselves in.

  1. I liked this one too and can't wait for the next. I did find some of the time travel a little confusing though. My teasers this week are from Not Quite Dating by Catherine Bybee and The Last Station Master by S.A.M. Posey. Happy reading!
