Books I hope that Santa brings!
Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created at The Broke and the Bookish.
I would also love to have an e-reader this year- doubt it will happen, but I hope so!
What about you? What books do you want Santa to bring you??
An ereader is a great gift. I'll cross my fingers for you.

ReplyDeleteAn e-reader is on the top of my wishlist too.
Lol, lots of great stuff! Hope Santa delivers :D
ReplyDeleteHere is my teaser from Lipstick in Afghanistan by Roberta Gately (Page 1):
ReplyDelete"Do you hear it?" The voice was almost a whisper.
Elsa held her breath, and then she heard it too, a faint rustling of footsteps over twigs and leaves. Out of the corner of her eye, she glimpsed several shadowy figures darting through the trees, and when she turned, she saw a glint of sunlight reflecting off the barrel of an assault rifle.
There was no denying it—the Taliban had found them.
Oh, Jesus! she thought. We'll never escape.
Elsa knew the Taliban's ruthless hatred; the death and destruction they wrought was undeniable.
Seized by a sickening wave of fear, she wanted to cry or throw up, but there was no time. She tried to catch Parween's eye, but her friend was looking back, intent on finding the source of the sound.
"Run!" someone shouted, and suddenly, the chase was on.
I've seen Birthmarked on a few people's list. I'll have to look it up!
ReplyDeleteGreat list. A e-reader is on my wishlist too :)
