The Happy Booker: Teaser Tuesday

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:

Grab your current read

Open to a random page

Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page

BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)

Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!

"Looking back, I know we were only filling in the holes in our souls, the way the tide rushes sand to fill in the crevices of a rocky shore. We--or maybe it was just I--bandaged our needs with what we declared was love. But, eventually, the tide draws out what it has swept in." – pg 97

The Taker by Alma Katsu such a beautifully written story with some very dark themes and a hauntingly gothic feel reminiscent of Anne Rice’s earliest books.
What book is your teaser from? Leave me a message so I can go check it out. Smile
