Kick Butt Characters Giveaway Hop! (INT)


Hey guys and welcome to my stop on the 2nd Annualt Kick-Butt Characters giveaway hop, co-hosted by Good Choice Reading and I Am A Reader, Not A Writer. There are almost 150 blogs participating, so make sure to hop along in the linky at the bottom of this post!

As the title says, this giveaway is all about the characters who can kick some butt! And I definitely love them :) It was hard to make up my mind, but I'm offering you a choice of ONE of the books below. If you already own that particular book, you can also choose another one of the same series. The books will be ordered via The Book Depository, but please check the full rules below!! If there's another YA book with a kick-butt character that you really really want but isn't on my list, that can be arranged too ;)

So here's what I've picked out for you, my dears... click the covers for the goodreads description! 






Rules
  • Open INTERNATIONALLY provided The Book Depository ships to you. Just fill out the rafflecopter, and please don't leave your email in the comments!
  • One entry per person/household. Cheaters will be disqualified. I check  every single entry before picking a winner. Some cheating attempts I've come across are appalling.
  • I will order the cheapest edition available from my location on TBD, so covers may vary. If you prefer ebooks, you can also choose that instead of a paperback, provided it doesn't cost more and that I can gift it to you on Amazon.
  • You must be at least 13 or have permission from your parent to enter (blah).
  • The winner will be notified by email and has 48 hours to respond, then I'll pick a new one.
  • Once I've ordered the book, I'm no longer responsible for what happens with it.
That's it! If you have questions, put them in the comments or tag me on Twitter (@Butterfly_Ghost)  

Good luck, and keep kicking those butts as you hop along and check out the other blogs! ;)

Teaser Tuesday: Carnival of Souls





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!


Okay so I've only just started with this one (finally!) and I'd rather not skip ahead and spoiler myself...

 This is from Mallory's point of view, page 11 in the UK paperback (Harper Collins):

"That meant she was caught living among the witches, preparing to fight daimons with only a human's defenses. Sometimes, guiltily, she admitted to herself that this wasn't the life she wanted. A stray thought of Kaleb flitted through her mind, but she knew without asking her father that he'd never agree to her changing her training or workout schedules so she had time to date."



Talk about caught in-between without belong anywhere! I'm really intrigued by Mallory's lifestyle so far but I'm only on page 17 and things are still a bit confusing.

What are you reading and teasing us with this week? Link me up in the comments :)
