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!

    • What he doesn't know is that I don't have a penny on me, I have been living on a liquid diet for the past day, and I have not showered or washed my hair or changed my clothes in what seems like a week. I was at the end of the proverbial rope and had he not been there to catch me, I might've fallen into the abyss forever.

    p. 113 from The Girl She Used to Be by David Cristofano

    It's Tuesday...Where are You?

    I am ....wait, I have no idea where I'm at. I've been in the Witness Protection Program so long and had to change my name and where I lived so many time that I've forgotten who I really am and where I'm really from...please don't ask me. I just received an offer I can't resist, a chance at a "REAL" life, so I've decided to tell the Justice Department to go to hell...I'm going to try to live.

      How frustrating she must feel, living the way she has. It's no wonder she wants out.

      That's a great teaser!
