Swoon Thursday (#64): After the End by Amy Plum

Swoon Thursday is a hot meme hosted by the fabulous ladies at YA Bound!


- From the book you’re currently reading, or one you just finished, tell us what made you SWOON. What got your heart pounding, your skin tingling, and your stomach fluttering

- Try to make the swoon excerpt 140 characters (or less), if you are going to tweet about it. Use the hashtag #YABOUND when tweeting


This week, my swoon is from After the End by Amy Plum!


I was just trying to reassure him. TO get him to trust me. Saying I might have overdone it would be an understatement. Because one second I was holding his hand, seeing him once again like Nome would - I couldn't help it. He looked so sleepy and defenseless... utterly gorgeous.

My whole body's buzzing, and all I want is to keep pressing my chest against his and lacing my legs through his and winding my fingers through his beautiful curly hair and feeling his lips brush mine for the rest of the night. But I can't. I can't do this. I have to...

    1. Hehe, actually, that's the structure of the sentence in the book. The next sentence finishes her thought. But I can see how it looks like I'm teasing y'all ;D

      Thank you, Marilyn!

    1. I hope you love it, Teresa - or at least, like it more than I did! I enjoyed her first series as well, so it was disappointing to discover that I did not like her new book :\
