Rose’s Quote:
–Alexander Belov to Tatiana Metanova
(The Bronze Horseman by: Paullina Simons)
I am loving my reread of one of my favorite books. I first read this book 10 years ago. We are reading this book for our one of our June book club discussions. This book really got me back into reading. And it was this book that lead me to find goodreads and lead me to find the Outlander series. I am not sure who said it, but someone said if I was looking for a book that was as good if not better than The Bronze Horseman then I should give Outlander a try as Jamie Fraser was the only fictional man on the planet that could rival Alexander.
And just for fun, here is a fan made trailer for The Bronze Horseman(I just found this on YouTube) They really need to make this into a movie…
Julie’s Quote:
For the record, I think you make an excellent human.
–Lucas to Mila
(Mila 2.0 by: Debra Driza)
While Lucas is not exactly Mila’s love interest, he is a really cool boy that helps her out. I really liked this quote because of how affected he was by Mila’s emotions, even knowing what he does about who she is (you know, an android).
I want to read The Bronze Horseman! That quote is amazing and the fan trailer is so cool. Must get this book soon.
I’ve yet to meet Lucas from Mila 2.0, but that’s another book on my wishlist. 😉

I love The Bronze Horseman!!!! I hope you read it soon!
Great quotes, ladies. I haven’t read either book, but I want to. And Rose, you have me really intrigued about The Bronze Horseman now. I’ve yet to read Outlander *hangs head in shame* but I have a friend who really wants me to read that series. I’m going to ask her if she’s read TBH. 🙂

I have no clue why they are always linked… but I do think I like Outlander better than The Bronze Horseman. They books are really nothing alike. After I read The Bronze Horseman, I wanted to read another great book, but could never find anything that measured up. Finally someone on goodreads recommended Outlander to me and said that Jamie Fraser (Outlander) was a man to rival Alexander (The Bronze Horseman). And seriously, read Outlander before the Starz series starts up in August!!! Then stop back over here and gush with me about it! LOL
I do love Lucas from Mila 2.0!!

Alexander Belov sounds like he’s my kind of man! And, Julie’s quote totally made me giggle. Win/win, thanks for sharing!

I love Alexander. He is so protective of Tatiana, but not overbearingly so. I like their story being set against the backdrop of WWII because it makes everything Alexander does for Tatiana so much more meaningful. He shares his rations with her and her family when everyone is starving. He risks his life time and again to protect her and her family. He is such a great book boyfriend.
@Rose, I love rereads! I love a book that sticks with you like that. Your quote is very sweet 🙂
@Julie, your quote is funny, even after realizing that she’s not human. There are some humans who don’t make very good humans 🙂
Here is my post at Shut Up & Read.
Sheri recently posted…Interview + Giveaway: The Luthier’s Apprentice by Mayra Calvani
Thanks Sheri! This book really got me back into reading again while I was in college. I majored in English Lit and let me tell you, I got so burned out at reading that I started to hate it! This book brought back my passion for it (10 years ago!) and then I suffered the LONGEST book hangover in the history of book hangover until I discovered Outlander by Diana Gabaldon, 5 years later!!!!
