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!
This week I've started reading Skin Hungerby Kathleen Duey. I met Kathleen at the Central Coast Writers Conference which was held this past weekend at Cuesta College in SLO County. The Con as a whole was awesome, and I will write more about it soon. Promise. I took two sessions lead by Kathleen - one on writing YA books and another on writing MG books; the first one was just okay, but the second one was better - and later bought Skin Hungerand got it autographed by her at the closing table talks session. She's a lovely woman - perhaps a bit flighty I thought, but I can't really judge her because my brain is pretty scattered lately, too! So far I am really enjoying this book and am wishing I'd picked up the second one, Sacred Scars, which was also for sale at the Con. Anyway, here's my teasers from page 14:
The linens were stained with an ugly, deep red. No. Not red. Red-brown. The blood had dried.
