Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading.
To participate:
*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!
"'I hope you live after all, Sadie Kane. You're quite amusing. But if they do kill you, at least enjoy the experience!'"(~pg. 189 [US hardcover edition, available TODAY])

"But the man in white looked as if his eyes had been splashed with acid, then repeatedly clawed by cats. His eyelids were masses of scar tissue that didn’t close properly. His eyebrows were burned away and raked with deep grooves. The skin above his cheekbones was a mask of red welts, and the eyes themselves were such a horrible combination of blood red and milky white that I couldn’t believe he was able to see."
(~pg. 42 [US hardcover edition, available TODAY])

Actually, I just finished reading this one. Did you see my review yesterday when I launched Mythological Mondays?
