I love that quote...so eloquent :)
I recently pre-ordered this. I can't wait to get it. Anxiously awaiting, thumbs twiddling type of waiting over here.

Tonya: Don't run too fast it's not out till next month ;)
Thanks for visiting Creations by Laurel-Rain Snow!
Nely: This is my first book of hers and I must say I am totally enchanted and ready to try anything she has ever written.
Very nice!!
Juju, I just got this in the mail yesterday (review copy). Loved her first two books. Can't wait to dig in : )
Oh, this is your first? You must get your hands on her other two they are just lovely.
Osh, I'm so jealous you guys are getting ARC's - where was I when this happened? Oh well, I wanted to own my copy anyway. She's definitely a fave of mine.
Enjoy.

Now you're making me curious about who Vance Shelby really is. Interesting one =) Here is mine: Friday 56: Boleyn Inheritance
Mary: Mine arrived yesterday too. It was total serendipity. I was in a reading book, got home, found this book, and was immediately enchanted and sucked in.
Nely: You are SO right, this book is so good so far that if it continues to be this good I will have to buy a hardcover copy for my home library.

Great teaser!! This looks so good!
Hm, interesting depiction of a praying mantis. The title definitely sounds intriguing though! Thanks for sharing, Juju. :)
Bizarre!
I like this one! Interesting description of a praying mantis -- and a character. This book looks like something I'd enjoy.
Yep...definitely gonna snag this meme for my site one of these days. The quotes end of being so random, but that's half the fun! Thanks for sharing!
Awesome, it sounds really cool. The title appeals to me :)
Sounds like a cool book. I'll have to look for her stuff on Kindle. Need a new book soon!
Sounds great! I love the title of the book!
I loved this meme Juju, I decide to
post it on my blog hehe
Thanks =)
Wow, great quote. I love the how it sounds - it has such a nice flow. I'll have to read this one eventually. It looks like something I'd enjoy!

Ok that's a different sentence! Got my attention.
Oh, that's an interesting little teaaer! Thanks for sharing. =]
*teaser stupid typos haha
I wouldn't want to be compared to a praying mantis. Those things are SO creepy!
EEEEK! I'm so excited about Sarah Addison Allen's new book -- you lucky duck for having a copy! :) Can't wait to hear your thoughts. I adore her so much -- The Sugar Queen is one of my favorite stories ever :)
I loved "Garden Spells." I want to read The Sugar Queen too.
Hmmm, I wouldn't like him. I don't like those Praying Mantis critters. Yuck! Is the guy yucky or just trying to get something he needs?
