Tuesday Prelude


Tuesday Prelude is a meme inspired by Should Be Reading's Teaser Tuesday. Since I could never stick to just a couple of lines, I decided to amp up this post by introducing you to a more in-depth look into my current read or a novel I just recently finished.

This week, I'm diving into Dare You To by Katie McGarry:

Beth Risk likes to think she doesn't need anybody's help or sympathy. She trusts no one but herself, and maybe her best friend Isaiah, and she puts off a vibe that feels like she's constantly flipping you off. She doesn't care what people think as she doesn't like any of them much to begin with.
I see the judgment in their eyes. The amusement. The pity. Damn hypocrites.
Beth is always on the defense, always trying to pick a fight to keep people from getting to close to her.
Noah told me once that I have a gift that borders on supervillain status - the ability to push people past the edge of sanity.
Then she meets Ryan, a guy who accidentally gets a glimpse of the girl behind the dark mask. She takes every chance she gets in order to grate his nerves and make him hate her, but he just allows her temper to roll off him.
"When you kiss guys, do they drop dead from the venom that spews out of your mouth?"
She's a little scary and unlike any girl he's ever met.
Beth's lips twist into that evil smirk. What the hell did I walk myself into? 
Dude, you had to know with all those tongue lashings she gave you. Beth doesn't take crap from anyone, least of all Ryan, but it's a quality that seems to get his attention.
"Even the devil knows who God is."
"You're not the devil, Beth."
"Are you sure?"
That sweet smile graces his lips.
"No."

Review coming soon!!!


Happy Reading Everyone :)
