This week’s book:
Book Title: Rebel Belle
Author: Rachel Hawkins
Series: Rebel Belle #1
Publisher: Putnam Juvenile
Publication Date: April 8th 2014
Genres: Fantasy, Magic, Romance, YA
Age Range: 12-17 years old
Harper Price, peerless Southern belle, was born ready for a Homecoming tiara. But after a strange run-in at the dance imbues her with incredible abilities, Harper’s destiny takes a turn for the seriously weird. She becomes a Paladin, one of an ancient line of guardians with agility, super strength and lethal fighting instincts.
Just when life can’t get any more disastrously crazy, Harper finds out who she’s charged to protect: David Stark, school reporter, subject of a mysterious prophecy and possibly Harper’s least favorite person. But things get complicated when Harper starts falling for him–and discovers that David’s own fate could very well be to destroy Earth.
With snappy banter, cotillion dresses, non-stop action and a touch of magic, this new young adult series from bestseller Rachel Hawkins is going to make y’all beg for more.
Teaser:
“I just . . . I don’t like crying girls, okay?” We were quiet for a second while I took that in.
“That was very nice of you, David,” I finally said. “Now hold on because I’m about to drive into a fence.”
“Yeah, okay,” he muttered, his eyes still closed. “You do that.” Then his eyes shot open. “Wait, what?”
This scene cracked me up so much, I can’t not that with you! I’m currently reading Rebel Belle and I’m enjoying it so far. I like Harper (the main character) already and I’m not even halfway through the book! I hope this continues to be good and don’t disappoint.
Have a teaser of your own? Leave a link to your post in the comments section, or if you don’t have one you can just comment a teaser below too. Thanks for stopping by!

This book was really cute. I had a hard time getting into the sequel and eventually abandoned it.

Yikes, I’m sorry to hear that. This book has been really great so far but I’m afraid I won’t like the sequel.

That scene cracked me up too! This was such a fun read. I’m almost finished with the second book and then will be reading Lady Renegades. Such a funny series:)

OH, Rebel Belle! I loved this one! Sadly, I didn’t find the sequel as good and I’m not even interested in reading the third one. Same thing happened to me with the Hex series. Thanks for sharing this! Brings back good memories 😀
