This week, my swoon is from Through the Ever Night by Veronica Rossi!
"He smiled and leaned down, kissing her softly, tenderly. She knew she should step away. This was a risk, but she didn't care about anything except him just then. She woved her arms around his neck and parted his lips with hers, stealing a taste of him. Tenderness could wait for another time."

According to Goodreads, I've been "currently reading" this book since January 20th... UGH. That's a month ago, since I started! And I've read so many books in between then and now! I am determined to finish this book, but the problem is, I've reached page 180, and things are, well, not happy.
And I've been swamped with schoolwork. Between colleges, scholarships, projects, essays, and finishing class curriculums to start studying for my lovely eight AP exams, I have had barely any time for anything!
So, this isn't exactly a new swoon on my part, but currently, I'm not reading anything (unless you count this one, which I started ONCE, a month ago, and never picked up again).
So anyway! What made you swoon this week?
Great Swoon! Love the cover of this book too!
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about being busy. If it dosen't rain, it pours.

I love this book so far. And you are SO right :D
DeleteUrg I hate those books that you just can't finish .. I have a book too that I've been reading since Feb 9th and I just don't want to continue but I have to! I can't not finish a book (I think I have a bit OCD on that part ;) )
ReplyDeleteBut, nevertheless I like the swoon AND the cover. :-)
Thanks for stopping by my blog at www.theobsessivereader.com
I can't not finish a boo either! I don't like DNFing books.
DeleteThank you!
Great swoon! I have this series on my TBR-list but haven't gotten around to reading it. Schoolwork is killing me too and I barely have any time for reading anymore, so I know how you feel.

DeleteTotally understand the business factor. School and all things related take a lot of energy. Thank you for sharing the swoon with us this week! I haven't read these yet so I'm always looking for a reason I should. Thank you so much for commenting today! Hope things get better and you finish your book.
ReplyDeleteP.S. Movie was awesome! My bf even liked it!
Awww, this is such a nice comment! It makes me feel so warm and fuzzy! I believe things will calm down after March 1st - my last colleges/scholarships deadlines.
DeleteThank you! You ROCK <3
I read this book and I know what you're talking about when you say " not happy"! What happen at the end of this book had me crying my eyes out! Love your swoon Alyssa! :)

OH MY GOSH! Crying is a good way, or bad?! I'm so scared - I've heard CRAZY things about the end. That *may* have been a factor in me not finishing yet lol. Thanks, Debbie!
DeleteNot sure if I want to read this one or not. Good swoon though!
