* Excerpts, First Chapters, and Sneak Peeks

Some of the books on my Anxiously Awaiting list have excerpts available at the author's or publisher's websites.

I've got the first chapter of Bullet linked below, but in case you missed it, I blogged about a bunch of Teasers for Bullet a few days ago.

I would love to have an ARC for any of the books on this list, or on my Anxiously Awaiting list. See my Review Policy for more information about sending books for review.
