Teaser Tuesday: January 17, 2012

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!

The Springsweet (The Vespertine, #2)

"Of all the things to set me to screaming like a child, it had been nothing reasonable.  No, I could endure any number of trials - whole weeks' worth of meager meals, dirt floors and robberies, forced courtship and apparent abandonment - but I had been reduced to terror by bad eggs."

~Page 174 of Springsweet by Saundra Mitchell
