Teaser Tuesdays (19)

My mom just went nuts. I have a total of 10 UNCLAIMED PACKAGES at the post office. She just got a notice from the postman. 10! 10! What the...? Yeah. I'm getting a lot of stuff that I don't even know which books I'm receiving. But I am seriously stoked! More books! Which means I need a new bookshelf. Badly. Anyone kind enough to give me a new bookshelf as a gift this Christmas? ^^

Anyway, my teaser for this week comes from a seriously AWESOME NOVEL! You wanna know? Read on!

When they walked back through the graveyard, Violet let all the echoes, including Brooke's, fall back into one harmonious static hum, filling her with tranquility once again.

They were bodies at peace, ripped from this world before their time, but laid to rest by those who loved them most.

~p. 153, "The Body Finder" by Kimberly Derting


I dunno about you but that teaser just gave me goosebumps! Scary, huh? But this is an awesome novel!

  7. Here is my teaser from Witchgrass: A Pipe Dream by Dave Wilkinson (Page 1):

    Most gardeners hate witchgrass. Of all weeds it is one of the most persistent and adaptable. Any small piece of rhizome left in the soil can become an aggressive plant ready to take over the plot. Witchgrass is hard to pull. Roots are deep, and break off easily. Any part left in the ground will grow again. Farmers say the species isn't even good as hay, not as good as timothy or alfalfa. Some call it quickgrass.

    Early New England colonists blamed evil people for this garden invader. In the seventeenth century villagers would speak this way:

    "The surly woman living alone on her dead husband's estate. She goes into the woods and consorts with the Devil. Signs his book. Fornicates with him. Eats mushrooms. She and the Devil send witchgrass to harass the virtuous and the Godly. Let us hang this witch and seize her rich farm."
