Waiting on Wednesday ♥ Isla

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine that highlights upcoming releases we're excited about.

There are, as you know, books coming out left and right that we all want to read. One I am looking most forward to is...

 

Okay, I seriously cannot wait for this one. I *loved* Anna and the French Kiss and really enjoyed Lola and the Boy Next Door. I was lucky and got a sneak peek of this one on NetGalley and I was SO disappointed when it was over. Super excited!

What are you waiting on?

Memorable Monday ♥ Lola and the Boy Next Door

Memorable Monday is a meme hosted by Escape in a Good Book. I'm excited to join in on this one because I love quotes, which was the driving force behind the creation of Memorable Mondays. I thank the ladies at Escape in a Good Book.

So... how do you participate? It's simple ~

1) Share a quote that has captured your interest lately in a Memorable Monday post on your blog.

2) Come back here and leave the link to your post in the comment box below. If you don't have a blog, I'd still love to hear read your quote. Leave it in the comment box instead of a link to a non-existent blog. :)

3) Visit other participants if you have time. It's always nice to have visitors. There's no overstaying your welcome this way, and they don't have to offer the obligatory drinks. Or clean.

4) If you tweet your posts, feel free to use the hashtag #MemorableMonday.

This week's choice:

 


“I know you aren't perfect. But it's a person's imperfections that make them perfect for someone else.”  

~Lola and the Boy Next Door, by Stephanie Perkins 








I love this one. I think it's so important to remember that perfection is an unattainable goal and that there are people out there who will love and accept you for who you are - flaws and all. :)

Any quotes/sayings strike you lately?


Smiles,

Teaser Tuesday ♥ Lola & The Boy Next Door

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly meme hosted by MizB at Should Be Reading.  Anyone can play along! 

All you have to do:

1. Grab your current read.
2. Open to a random page
3. Share two (2) 'teaser' sentences from that page.
4. Be careful... do not include spoilers!!!  Make sure that what you are sharing doesn't give too much away;  you don't want to ruin the book for others.
5. Share the title and author, too, so other Teaser Tuesday participants can add it to their TBR list if they like what you shared.
   
   

 



“Perfect is overrated. Perfect is boring."
I smile. "You don't think I'm perfect?"
"No. You're delightfully screwy, and I wouldn't have you any other way.”
