Teaser Tuesdays and It's Tuesday....Where Are You?


TEASER TUESDAYS asks you to:
Grab your current read.
Let the book fall open to a random page.
Share with us two (2) “teaser” sentences from that page, somewhere between lines 7 and 12.
You also need to share the title of the book that you’re getting your “teaser” from … that way people can have some great book recommendations if they like the teaser you’ve given!
Please avoid spoilers!




And then one day I was having a really crappy day and all I wanted to do was get back at everyone who was making it that way. So I got this idea that I would write down all their names in a notebook, like the notebook was some kind of voodoo doll or something.
p.134 from Hate List: A Novel by Jennifer Brown






____________________________________________________





So I'm in high school and pretty much hate most of it, except for Nick. What started out as just a way to blow off steam, get rid of frustration, to pretend wish someone dead, has turned out to be real. How will I be able to go on with my life?

    This is the second teaser from this one I've seen today. Obviously a popular read! Great teaser, but I don't know if I'm ready to be reminded of all that high school angst!

    I've seen quite a few reviews of The Hate List around...it sounds powerful, but also so sad.

    I've heard such great things about Hate List that I'm really curious to start it, but I worry if it would really get under my skin? I have a hard time reading about school shootings and the like... it bothers me so much! I'll be eager to see what you think! :)

    I've been on the fence with this one, but your teaser is edging it close to the 'want to read' side :)

    Here's my Teaser Tuesday.
