[I haven't done this for ages, but I was SO excited about my current read, I thought I'd give you a taster! :)]

Darkness Before Dawn by J.A. London

Goodreads: This electrifying new trilogy blends the best of paranormal and dystopian storytelling in a world where the war is over. And the vampires won. Humans huddle in their walled cities, supplying blood in exchange for safety. But not even that is guaranteed. Dawn has lost her entire family and now reluctantly serves as the delegate to Lord Valentine, the most powerful vampire for miles. It isn’t until she meets Victor, Valentine’s son, that she realizes not all vampires are monsters....

"We had vampires in our midst and all we wanted to know was their opinions about us. We were so egocentric and oblivious, eager for entertainment. We're not so entertained now."

"Not all the monsters have fangs."

[I'm really enjoying this book at the moment, it's really good! I hope it stays like this!]

Goodreads: Everything is in ruins. A devastating plague has decimated the population. And those who are left live in fear of catching it as the city crumbles to pieces around them. So what does Araby Worth have to live for? Nights in the Debauchery Club, beautiful dresses, glittery make-up . . . and tantalizing ways to forget it all. But in the depths of the club—in the depths of her own despair—Araby will find more than oblivion. She will find Will, the terribly handsome proprietor of the club. And Elliott, the wickedly smart aristocrat. Neither boy is what he seems. Both have secrets. Everyone does. And Araby may find something not just to live for, but to fight for—no matter what it costs her.

"And I'm falling in love with you," he whispers. "But I would throw you in the water and watch the crocodiles tear you to bits, if I thought that doing so would accomplish my goals. Do. Not. Trust. Anyone. Especially me."

"He hands me one of his shirts, a red one. It is soft when I touch it to my face. "You can't possibly sleep in that dress. Wear this, think of me." The flirty tone is back."

This book is so good! I'm hooked!

            Delirium by Lauren Oliver

"After the procedure I will be happy and safe forever. That's what everybody says, the scientists and my sister and Aunt Carol. I will have the procedure and then I'll be paired with a boy the evaluators choose for me. In a few years, we'll get married."

+

"No guy in his right mind would ever choose me when there are people like Hana in the world: it would be like settling for a stale cookie when what you really want is a big bowl of ice cream, whipped cream and cherries and chocolate sprinkles included."

I'm really enjoying this book so far! :) Not really sure if I like this cover though... I love the blue hardback cover and the US version!

Cinder by Marissa Meyer

"A scream filled Cinder's ears. She flinched, the sound peeking in her audio interface, and turned towards it. The market silenced." Page 14

"Cinder opened her mouth, about to announce that any human touch felt unusual, but her breath hiccuped. Fire and pain ruptured her spine, flooding her veins." Page 113

The Iron Queen by Julie Kagawa.

"As usual, it looks like I have to rescue you and ice-boy from something. Again. This is starting to become a habit."  page 55

"'Robin Goodfellow?' 'Oh look at that, he's heard of me. My fame grows.' Puck snorted and leaped off the roof. In mid air, he became a giant black raven, who swooped toward us with a raucous cry before dropping into the circle as Puck in an explosion of feathers. 'Ta-daaaaaa.'"  page 55


I'm seriously in love with these books! They're amazing! :D

Starcrossed by Josephine Angelini


"'Aren't you afraid you'll catch a fatal case of loser from me?' (Helen)
'Nope I'm so awesome I'm immune. Anyway, geeks are the best. You're all so deliciously corruptible.'(Claire)"


"Claire couldn't stop talking about the Delos boys. She told Helen at least three times that Lucas had held the door for her at the end of class. That act proved he was not only a gentleman, but already in love with her as well."

Blood Red Road by Moira Young

"Maev's in the front row. As I lie on the ground, our eyes meet. She nods. That's one fight down. Two more to go."

"Closer, he says. I move. Then I'm right next to the cell bars. Right next to him. I don't look up. But I feel him. The warmth of him. The cold of him. Saba, I think I hear him whisper."
