THE KEEPER
Michelle slid her fingertip across the portscreen, flipping through the album of photos her granddaughter had sent that morning. Luc had taken Scarlet to see the ruins of the crumbling statues and still-standing wreckage. There was even a photo of Luc and Scarlet together, huddled in enormous wool coats beside a statue with one missing arm. The stone woman looked like a third member of their party.

That sounds like a wonderful book. I'm jealous. Enjoy.
ReplyDeleteI have Stars Above on my shelf and I can't wait to get to it. Happy Friday!
ReplyDeleteStudents at my school are pretty excited about this book. Are you enjoying it? I haven't read WiNTER yet so I can't read this one yet.

Great excerpts and gorgeous cover! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI've seen this series mentioned on a lot of blogs but haven't read any of the books. I like the opening and your 56 excerpt too. Is the genre sci-fi or fantasy?
ReplyDeleteThese are all fairytale retellings that are both fantasy and touch lightly on sci-fi.
DeleteI cannot wait to read this! The cover is so-o gorgeous! Enjoy!

I have read some of this series and loved it. Need to get around to finishing it. :-)
ReplyDeleteCool cover art and I love the snippet. Leaves you wanting to know more!
ReplyDeleteI loved the beginning and the 56 was really good too! One of these days I'll get started on this series - I have a couple of the books on the kindle - just no time!
ReplyDeleteYour book sounds good. I am working my way through all 843 pages of Winter right now and savoring it because it is the end of the series. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteI finished Winter and this one came out after it, though it touches on many of the characters before they became who we know them to be.
DeleteEye catching cover. Love the 56! I'd love for you to check out mine... http://tinyurl.com/LisaKsBookReviewsACFTW
ReplyDeleteI am so behind in this series...lol.
ReplyDeleteHi Freda,
ReplyDeleteSounds mysterious. Love the book cover. Have a great day!
Love the cover...not a genre I read, but I hope it is a great read for you.
ReplyDeleteHave a good weekend.

My guess is you wouldn't want to tick off the person wearing that tiara!
ReplyDeleteHere's my Friday 56!
Does this mean the series is done?
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting Friday 56 and for participating in BBOF!
ReplyDeleteI haven't started that series yet. Glad you're enjoying it!
