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!
My teaser is two really long sentences. I think this is one of the few times I actually have two sentences instead of 3 or 4.
The purpose of Hecate Hall is to protect and instruct shapeshifter, witch, and fae children who have risked exposure of their abilities, and therefore imperiled society as a whole.
“I still don’t see how helping one girl find a date imperiled other witches,” I said, squinting at my mom as we reached into the trunk for my stuff.

This one sounds intriguing…love that cover!
Here’s MY TT POST
It is! So so good!
I enjoyed that one – looking forward to Demonglass! I think you picked great sentences to get the tone of the book across!
Demonglass is already out I think! Thanks.
Oh, did she get booted out of the school? My TT: http://www.rundpinne.com/2011/05/teaser-tuesdays-wrecker.html
She did, yeah, because she cast a love spell that went wrong.
I really enjoyed Hex Hall, I’m reading Demonglass now
I am gonna read that next!
I love the cover! Sounds like a great book!!

It is, it is very interesting.
I have this book on my bookshelf, I can’t wait to read it. I have so many unread books, it’s sad, like neglect! LOL
me too! I got a little less than 30 books on my TBR list!
Thanks for visiting my blog.
I really enjoyed this when i read it. Waiting for the 2nd one.
Thanks, I can’t wait to get the second one, either.
I really enjoyed this book! Great teasers!
Thanks for stopping by!
Thank you Candace!
Beautiful cover and intriguing teaser. Thanks for posting both.
Thanks Sandy!
I really enjoyed this book, the second one is even better. Terrific pick for a teaser.
That’s hard to imagine, this first one is pretty damn good.
Great teaser. I loved this book.
Sally.

Thank you Sally!
LOVED HEX HALL!! It is awesome – and Demonglass was even better than it. Hope you love Hex Hall too!
Thanks for commenting on my blog! I still think that Lucas was warning her and not threatening…I don’t know why I just do.
It’s hard to believe Demonglass could be better!
I guess it could be a warning, probably depends on context.
I know it’s hard to believe but you will believe it when you read Demonglass.
And I guess you’re right. Cuz the main character of Born at Midnight took it as a threat – and I’m sitting there and thinking it doesn’t seem like a threat…but I guess it can be interpreted either way.
WOW I really have to get Demonglass than.
Hey , maybe you are seeing something the main character isn’t.
Maybe. I tend to do that – see things the characters don’t see…and shout at the characters for not seeing something at seems so obvious to me.
LOL I do that too sometimes. Particularly with movies. I got a bad habit of doing just that in movie theaters.
I haven’t done that with movies…yet. Although with murder/mystery shows/movies I’m usually right about who the killer is when I guess somewhere in the beginning.
sometimes the killer is obvious in the beginning! usually on cop shows, but not as much with movies. and sometimes when the hero(s) goes into a dark place or separate, I am like, idiot, you know something is going to jump out at you.
oh thanks for the follow! I am subscribed to your blog too on google reader.
awesome – thanks! and i’m usually right on either movies and tv shows…as for shouting at the tv that would be my little sister – she’s always shouting at the stupid people that are walking towards their doom.
For me, predicting the murderer on movies is harder for some reason. Not sure why. I guess I am like your little sister that. LOL
LOL – yeah sometimes I’m wrong, but usually that’s cuz I changed my guess part way through the movie. And my little sister’s shouting at the tv makes the scary parts a little less scary…cuz what she shouts is kinda funny.
Yeah yelling at the TV can diffuse the tension. my brother and i do it all the time, talk to each other about what’s going on. And I am always changing my mind about the bad guy is!
Ack ! another for this book ! I must have it!
I know! I think almost everyone who commented has already read this book. And I even found someone else who did a teaser tuesday today from this same book.
I like the sound of this one. I just finished “River Marked” by Patricia Briggs that is also about a shapeshifter and the fae. Thanks for stopping by today.
I read River Marked, too, and loved it!
I’ve heard great things about this book – the teaser sounds really interesting! Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!
Thanks, it is really good so far
I’ve heard good things about this book! I have it but haven’t got a chance to read it yet! Thanks for stopping by my blog!
You absolutely should! It’s a great book
Here I am, still haven’t picked up this book even though I continue to get so teased by it! Lol. Are you enjoying it so much that I have to do it as soon as possible?
My TT can be found here!
Rebecca @ kindle fever
Absolutely! I am almost done and I think it’s one of the better books I’ve read all year.
That sounds like fun!
