Tidbit tuesday: The Art Of Racing In The Rain

"Racing is doing. It is being a part of a moment and being aware of nothing else but that moment."


"Memory is time folding back on its self. to remember is to disengage yourself from the present"


"I don't understand why people insist on pitting the concepts of evolution and creation against each other. Why cant they see spiritualism and science as one? The bodies evolve and the souls evolve and the universe is a fluid place that marries them both together in a wonderful package called a human being."


"we are creations of our own destiny, Be it through intention or ignorance."


"I admire the female sex- the live makers. It must be amazing to have a body that can carry and entire creature inside"

Tidbit Tuesday: The Art Of Racing In The Rain (2)

"To live every day as a day stolen from death is the way i would like to live.To feel the joy of live. To separate ones self from the burden, the angst, the anguish that we all encounter every day. To say I am alive, I am wonderful, I am."

"He died that day because his body had served its purpose. his soul had done what it came to do and learned that it came to learn, and then it was free to leave"

"Inside each of us lies the truth, the absolute truth. But sometimes the truth is hidden in a hall of mirrors. Sometimes we believe we are viewing the real thing when in fact we are viewing a facsimile, a distortion."


"the car goes where the eyes go."

Teaser Tuesday- The summer I learned to fly (2)

I hugged him. "Thank You."


"For what?"


I took in his smile. His sea green eyes. His shaggy blond hair. The genuine look of concern for me. 


"For being beautiful Nick."

Teaser Tuesday- The summer I learned to fly

"Humbolt Fog, you are an excellent rat."


Tears welled in my eyes, and fell in the grass.


"If you can understand me, hear this: I will come back for you, But its okay if you don't wait around for me. It's Okay if you go on and find another life for yourself. You are a good rat. A kind rat. And maybe you'll be happier when you discover that the world is bigger then your little wire cage."

Tidbit Tuesday- The Clockwork angel

Quotes from the Clockwork Angel by Cassandra Clare


"Remember when you tried to convince me to feed a poultry pie to the Mallards int the park to see if you could breed a race of cannibal ducks?" Jem asked
"They ate it to," Will reminisced "blood thirsty little beasts. Never trust a duck"

"Hunger," said Jem "were you thinking about blood?"
"No." Tess replied
"Were you thinking about eating me?" Will Inquired.
"No!"
"No one would blame you." said Jem, "he's very annoying."

" I never liked it much- seemed like so much nonsense."
"There's plenty of sense in nonsense sometimes if you choose to look for it."

"A little girl robbed you?"
"Actually she wasn't a little girl at all, as it turns out, but a midget in a dress with a penchant for violence who goes by the name of six-fingered Nigel"
"Easy mistake to make."

And that's it! the next book in the Infernal devices is the clockwork prince which comes out the sixth of December 2011

Tidbit Tuesday!

Yep yep yep.


Tidbit Tuesday is like teaser Tuesday, but the sections of the book are a tad larger, and its all pre-meditated. These are quotes I found in the book that really stand out, not a random line. Not that theirs anything wrong with the teasers, I just like my way better...

so this is from Wonderland by Joanna Nadin

"Okay. Million dollar question. If you could be one person for a day who would it be?"


"I don't know... The Queen?" I don't mean it. But I don't feel like playing


"Yahn... Know who I'd be?"


"I don't know. Gretta Garbo? Jackie Onassis?"


She rolls another layer of lip gloss on. "Not... Even... Close..."


"Who then?"


"You"


"What?"


"I'd be you." She laughs. "You cant even see it, can you?"


Intrigued? read my review do Wonderland Here

Until later,

Teaser Tuesday- Hunger by Michael Grant

My Teaser For this Tuesday... From the book Hunger by michael grant

Howard held his breath as Orc stomped into the field. So, for that matter, did albert. Every hideous detail of the memory of E.Z.'s death was permanently imprinted on Albert's brain. 

The attack was immediate. 

The worms seethed from the dirt, slithered with impossible speed toward Orc's feet and threw them selves against his unnatural flesh. Orc stopped. He gaped down at the creatures. 

He turned with a creepy slowness back toward Albert and howard and said, "Kinda tickles."

XO, Dana

"No, Penny, not him,"

Teaser Tuesday!

Haven't done it in a while, but here goes!

This is from Halo by Alexandra Ardenetto

"Do you believe in god?" I asked eventually.

"Your the first girl to ask me that,"Xavier said,"Most people think of religion as some kind of fasion statement." 

"So do you?"

" I believe in a higher power, a spiritual energy. I think life's too complex to be an accident don't you agree?"

"Absolutley." 

Teaser Tuesday!

Happy Tuesday everyone! Today just feels extra cheery because 1) It's not Monday 2) I'm actually awake and alert at 6:03 in the morning, and 3) Its still dark out.


How have you guys been adapting to the time change? not much difference to me, except the fact that I leave or school and the sun is rising. I actually liked it better before. It may sound crazy but there's something sort of....... mystical about walking to school in the dark, every things more relaxed and alert at the same time, and there [seems to be] no morning rush. 

but any way on to the teaser of today's Tuesday (say that ten times fast...) 


again Teaser Tuesday is started by the blog Should be reading


the rules are, 2 random lines and no spoilers. I cheeted a bit on this one, and added a bit more lines because I felt it would do the book more justice. 


So my exert is from the book, The Exile of Sara Stevenson, By Darci Hannah

I pondered death as I sailed along the treacherous coast- what it was, what it meant, how it felt. When someone dies, do they know that there dead? And can someone be dead, yet still think they're alive I believed I fell under this last category. But the wind, beginning to pick up, bit straight through my clothing, Reminding me that I was indeed quite alive.

Yet I felt so dead inside. 




Hope you guys enjoy the rest of the week, remember to comment, follow and spread the word. 


XO, Dana
