A gritty, romantic modern fairy tale from the author of Break and Gone, Gone, Gone.Be careful what you believe in.
Rudy’s life is flipped upside-down when his family moves to a remote island in a last attempt to save his sick younger brother. With nothing to do but worry, Rudy sinks deeper and deeper into loneliness and lies awake at night listening to the screams of the ocean beneath his family’s rickety house.
Then he meets Diana, who makes him wonder what he even knows about love, and Teeth, who makes him question what he knows about anything. Rudy can’t remember the last time he felt so connected to someone, but being friends with Teeth is more than a little bit complicated. He soon learns that Teeth has terrible secrets. Violent secrets. Secrets that will force Rudy to choose between his own happiness and his brother’s life.

I'm interested in Teeth and The Dead and Buried!!!
ReplyDeleteIt's impressive when I see the list I'm telling myself oooh this one I need to buy, oh this one I already read it. But finally I want to reas most of them. thanks!
ReplyDeleteDude!! That's just too much!! Haha!! I liked The Dead and Buried and I'm enjoying Splintered. I tried to listen to the audio of the first Zom-B book and couldn't get into it, but it's a girl narrator and boy MC so I think that kept throwing me off. I might try actually reading it. Teeth sounds awesome!!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous stack of books, Giselle. I also really need to catch up on the PLL books.
ReplyDeleteStacking the Shelves - Xmas edition.
WOW! Look at all those books hitting the shelves! I definitely think my first buy will be "The Essence" (Pledge, #2) by Kimberly Derting! What will yours be?!
ReplyDeleteWow I've been loving the cover of Splintered, so I might have to get that... and Falling for You and Empty sound good too!!
ReplyDeleteI'm really excited for The Essence. It's felt like forever since I read The Pledge though...
ReplyDeletei loved splintered and i want teeth
ReplyDeleteAahhh, so many awesome books! Especially Splintered! I'm pre-ordering a copy. I feel like I've been waiting for this book forever. Prophecy, The dead and buried & Dr. Frankenstein's daughters also sound great :)
ReplyDeleteI recieved an ARC of Teeth a few weeks back and fell in LOVE with it! it's such a heart wrenching read I was crying tears of joy and sadness by the end! Hope you read it and enjoy it as much as i did it's definetly not one to miss :)
ReplyDeleteWow, I can't believe that January is almost here already!! SO many fabulous releases that I need to get my hands on, the number one being Splintered. I've only seen fantastic reviews of that one, and it looks creepy and enchanting at the same time. Not to mention it's an Alice in Wonderland retelling! It can't get better than that. ;) I'm also really looking forward to Prophecy. And I am totally adding Teeth to my TBR. It sounds really creepy and a tad scary, so I think that I'd love it. ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing Giselle! <3
Income season needs to come fast! I need money so I can buy more books!
ReplyDeleteOh, wow. So many good books coming out! I cannot wait to read Splintered! And I read a review copy of Prophecy and it was pretty good, fast read. I've never heard of Teeth, but it sounds like an interesting read. :)
ReplyDeleteCheers!
