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 (yes, I generally share a bit more… but it’s just so exciting…)
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!) 


Barnes & Noble   Amazon   Goodreads

 

Share the title and author so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers! 

My teaser this week is from Stan-In Groom by Kaye Dacus.

I love to read! But I don't always think the synopsis on the backs of books do them justice. I do, however, believe all books should come with an intended rating - or at least a steam FYI. So, I'm taking upon myself to educate all -- christian & secular readers, alike -- on the books behind the synopsis and the possible things you may not want your YA reader to see. Enjoy!
