Teaser Tuesday (9)



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!
Here’s my teaser from The Pact by Jodi Picoult:
“‘I’m so sorry for your loss.’ … Melanie blinked at him.  How could she trust this man, so imprecise with his words, to take care of the burial?  To say there had been a loss was ludicrous; one lost a shoe or a set of keys.  You did not suffer the death of a child and say there was a loss.  There was a catastrophe.  A devastation.  A hell.”

  2. Great teaser. This sounds very sad! I agree, loss doesn't quite describe it like it should. My teaser is up at Coffee Table Press
