Teaser Tuesdays....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!


Not one single question was asked about Mother's absence or Lillian's bulging stomach. This was the way of the Creek, and we understood it. They had sized up the situation immediately, but knew it was against the rules to talk about it. We were allowed only polite conversation: the depths below the surface were better left dark and murky.

p.131 from Back Creek: A Novel by Leslie Goetsch

I'm eighteen getting ready to leave Back Creek, Virginia, when a so-called boating accident occurs and puts into motion events that I would never be prepared for.

  3. Staci, I've been reading a few new authors for me -- will have to share when I have more time. Just wanted to stop and let you know I've been thinking of you, so I thought I'd leave my calling card this morning.
