I don’t post much on the weekends but I have something super exciting and special for you today!
That’s right! It’s related to Marie Rutkoski’s The Winner’s Kiss!! Oh man. I am so excited for this book. And the cover that was revealed earlier this week?!?! So pretty!!!!
I absolutely adore The Winner’s Curse and The Winner’s Crime. They were two of my favorite books I read last year. But, stars! The end of The Winner’s Crime has me begging for The Winner’s Kiss. I know I’m not the only one!
Marie and the lovely folks at Macmillan know this too! They have decided to tease bless us with the first few lines from The Winner’s Kiss!! Each blog on this tour is revealing one line. So far there have been four stops and there’s one more after me. Check out the full schedule:
Tuesday, May 12th – Cuddlebuggery
Wednesday, May 13th – Love is Not a Triangle
Thursday, May 14th – The Book Rat
Friday, May 15th – Supernatural Snark
Saturday, May 16th – YA Bibliophile
Sunday, May 17th – Forever YA
Without any further ado, the fifth line in The Winner’s Kiss is:
He surrendered himself to his god, who smiled and came close.
Gah!!! It’s just one line yet it’s somehow freaking awesome, even out of context! I cannot wait to see what the next and final (for the time being) one is! Very few book series/authors could have me this excited over only six lines. I just love these books so very much.

This line has just made the previous ones so much more sinister!! He surrenders himself to his god? The god of death? That does not sound good…

This line and the previous just sound so dark and creepy! It makes me so excited for the sequel and makes me hope that there’s a happy ending! Pretty please!?

Oh my oreos!! I am jumping with joy about this line. It is amazing and awesome in every way. It means everything and all at once, I am daydreaming about the day when the Winner’s Kiss comes out in bookstores and I will get a chance to dive into reading this book with a bowl of yummy cookies and creme ice cream topped with sprinkles!!
Michelle Lee
OMG I wonder what that line is all about! I hope he’s not meeting his death or anything like that! AHHHHHH
Thank you for this amazing chance! 🙂

That line is sooo creepy~ I feel like it’s maybe another hallucination? SPOILER FOR BOOK 2 Arin kept imagining Kestrel and vice versa, so maybe he’s injured and is imagining things? I’M SO EXCITED FOR THIS BOOK.

Great line. I haven’t read anything by this author but I would love to.
