Teaser Tuesday (3)

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading (a wonderful blog that I have quietly stalked for some time). Bloggers share two random sentences from their current reads without including anything too spoilery.

My Tantalizing Teaser:

"Magpie had dreamed of dragons. She had dreamed of a time when the heavens had glistened with them as the sea glints with sharks, but she had always woken to a world of empty skies."

~ p.235, Faeries of Dreamdark: Blackbringer by Laini Taylor

I am loving this book! The writing is beautiful, and the heroine is awesome - a spunky, adventurous, tomboyish faerie-warrior. Also, there are crows who drink coffee and wear nightgowns, a mouthless monster named Gutsuck (ick), and a tattooed faerie prince with a penchant for knitting; need I say more?
