“Haly’s earliest memories were of wandering these stacks for hours against the warnings of her elders; cautionary tales of overzealous Libyrarians who lost their way in the endless maze and never returned. But even as a child, Haly had liked the tales the books told better, and in forgotten corridors she discovered worlds of adventure and majesty, and secrets.”
-p. 14 of Pearl North’s Libyrinth

What a lovely teaser, I'm intrigued!
What a wonderful teaser. This will definetly be a book I'm going to have to keep a look out for. Gorgeous cover by the way and I love the title as well.
So beautiful! I had this book out of the library (we're too small to be a libyrary) and had to take it back unread because I ran out of time. Will be getting it again soon, I hope!
I was so entranced by this book. I can't wait for the sequel. I love Haly's gift. Great teaser!
Here's mine.
Adding this to my wish list!

Terrific Teaser! I love the image of Haly unable to resist wandering the stacks and discovering the wonder, secrets and fun to be found in between the covers of a book!
Thank you!

Wow, perfect teaser for this crowd. I would love to find myself wandering through a maze of book stacks. ahhhh
I have to agree, wonderful description there!
Thanks so much for sharing, I had forgotten this was on my list.
Great teaser! Although, getting lost among a maze of bookshelves sounds a little frightening
I think I'm the only one who didn't like it. I'm sorry.
