Teaser Tueday: RED RISING By Pierce Brown


Teaser Tuesday is a bookish weekly meme hosted by MitzB at Should Be Reading.
Anyone can play along, just do the following:






• Grab your current read
• Open to a random page
• Share 2 sentences (make sure they won't tell too much of the story)
• Don't forget to include the title and author for us readers who'd like to add the book to our TBR lists

I've been anticipating the debut of this book for a while now.
So now I'm currently reading it and it just so happens to be, the author, Pierce Brown's birthday today!!! :)




"I use to reach and try to wipe the sweat away, only to scratch futilely at the faceplate of my frysuit. I still want too. Even after three years, the tickle and sting of the sweat is a raw misery."


Red Rising
By: Pierce Brown




Blurb:

"Darrow is a Helldiver, one of a thousand men and women who live in the vast caves beneath the surface of Mars. Generations of Helldivers have spent their lives toiling to mine the precious elements that will allow the planet to be terraformed. Just knowing that one day people will be able to walk the surface of the planet is enough to justify their sacrifice. The Earth is dying, and Darrow and his people are the only hope humanity has left.

Until the day Darrow learns that it is all a lie. Mars is habitable - and indeed has been inhabited for generations by a class of people calling themselves the Golds. The Golds regard Darrow and his fellows as slave labour, to be exploited and worked to death without a second thought.

With the help of a mysterious group of rebels, Darrow disguises himself as a Gold and infiltrates their command school, intent on taking down his oppressors from the inside.

But the command school is a battlefield. And Darrow isn't the only student with an agenda..."

If that doesn't make you want to read the book then I don't know what will,
OH! That it has gotten nothing but AMAZING reviews already!!!
GO OUT AND GET IT Y'ALL!!!!!!

A HUGE HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO PIERCE BROWN 
AND A WAY TO GO ON YOUR DEBUT!!!
ENJOY AND HAPPY READING Y'ALL!!
XOXO
