Northlight by Deborah J Ross (Deborah Wheeler)

Kardith, a woman Ranger, sets out to find her lost partner Aviyya. The political situation of the country worsens, after the assassination of Pateros leaving her with little hope of finding any help to rescue Aviyya. Finally Kardith realizes that nobody is willing to help her except a young scholar and horse doctor. Surely, this is not the company Kardith had wanted. But she has to move on.

Teaser Tuesday #8

Teaser Tuesday is a weekly bookish meme hosted by MizB of Should by Reading. My teaser is from the Classic Far From the Madding Crowd by Thomas Hardy.

Amazon

"So the chatter was all on her side. There is a loquacity that tells nothing, which was Bathsheba's; and there is a silence which says much: that was Gabriel's."

~ p.163, "Far From the Madding Crowd" by Thomas Hardy

Anyone can play along Teaser Tuesday! 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!

Top Ten Tuesday #4

Top Ten Tuesday is a feature/weekly meme created by The Broke and the Bookish. This meme was created to share our Top Ten lists with other bookish folks! Everyone is welcome to join. I'm participating in this meme after a long time. If you can't come up with ten, don't worry about it---post as many as you can!

This week's topic:

"Top Ten Books that are on the Top of My TBR List for Fall"

(All book title links below will lead you to Amazon.com)

1 What Ho, Automaton! by Chris Dolley

This is a fun mystery read. I received the book for review and of course I don't want the author to be waiting forever.


2 The Burning Sky (Halcyon #1) by Joseph Robert Lewis

Another review book, a sci-fi fantasy, I'm scheduling to read in Fall. This book has sequel too so I'm a bit excited about it.
