Teaser Tuesday: 8/9/11

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!

Yara's Teasers:

I knew it. I knew she would milk her discovery of me for every drop of attention that it's worth. It's so typical of her. I'm dead, for God's sake. You'd think that, for once, she could restrain herself from seizing an opportunity to be the center of attention.

I slid next to her, keeping my eyes forward. "Do I look even a little familiar to you?"

I could feel her eyes burning into the side of my face, then she whispered, "You look kinda like my brother."

I couldn't help smiling. "Wanna hear a crazy story?"

"Okay?" she said slowly.

Trudy's Teaser:

"It was very well done," he conceded. "How did you manage to get out of the house party?"

Jenny's Teaser: 

When Cam knocked on the office door, I lowered my shirt and let him in. He took one look at my face and dropped his duffle on the couch to take my chin in hand. “That black-hearted bastard... I’m going to break every tooth in his head.” “Get in line.” “Did you at least hit him back?” He let go of my chin and unzipped his bag. “Hell yes, I may have cracked his ribs”.

Tammy's Teaser:

"Tell me you didn't break up with her in a text." (Vlad to Henry)

"Yeah, why?" Henry shrugged again, casually, though the sting of the fresh breakup lurked in his eyes.

"Dude, that's brutal."

"But necessary. If you dump them in person either they get all weepy or mad. Either way, it's a bad situation. And I couldn't risk smearing my face paint with tears...or blood, whichever happened to be flying around."
