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 Teasers:
Her mother was wearing a teal bathrobe and her hair was wet, and Mona remembers how embarrassed she was when he wind rose and the bottom of her mother’s bathrobe lifted up and Mona saw coarse pubic hair and realized her mother was nude under that robe, just naked as a jaybird. Her mother called for her to come, and Mona obeyed her mother knelt and whispered into Mona’s ear that she loved her, she loved her more than anything, but she couldn’t stay here, and she was so sorry.
– American Elsewhere by Robert Jackson Bennett
I like that book cover. Interesting excerpt.

Oh I know! So interesting!
Not sure this one would be for me. Thanks for stopping by my TT at http://wp.me/pZnGI-hW
Well, it’s supposed to be horror! Though the teaser may not sound it.
Curious!
I hope Mona’s mother is ok. This book sounds both intriguing and heartbreaking. Thank you for stopping by. 🙂
I don’t think she is. Poor Mona.
I am definitely intrigued! Thanks for sharing…and for visiting my blog.
Thanks Laurel.
Wow, sounds like a really emotional story. Thanks for stopping by My Teasers earlier!
I think the teaser is more emotional than the story!
This one is intriguing! I want to know more! Thanks for stopping by!
I like it okay so far!
I wonder why she can’t stay…and if Mona is the reason she has stayed. Thanks for stopping by my teaser!
It’s because of horrific events in the past!
The teaser leaves me wanting to know more.
Fantastic!
“naked as a jaybird” lol. such a good tease. I’m curious to find out more! Thanks for stopping by earlier!
trish – my teaser
It made me laugh!
That’s…. a little twisted,
Is it? Yeah, the naked under the robe thing.
That’s caught my attention I want to know what she’s sorry for. Thanks for visiting my TT https://cleopatralovesbooks.wordpress.com/2015/01/27/teaser-tuesday-january-27/
For dying!
Ah… well that makes a bit more sense!
Sounds interesting, but potentially heartbreaking. Thanks for coming by my teaser.
Yeah, heartbreaking is the word.
Since I’m in a Horror reading challenge (and I don’t normally read much horror) – I’ve marked this one down as a wanted book 🙂 Thanks for sharing, it sounds interesting
My TT is here: Teaser Tuesday
Glad I could help, Marsha!
That’s pretty creepy. LOL! I certainly wouldn’t want to find myself in that situation!
Me either!
Oh, wow, what a great teaser! I’ll have to check this one out! Thanks for stopping by!
Glad you like lisa-marie!
Interesting teaser but doesn’t give much away, not even about the genre of the book. I’ll check out what this one is about, ’cause now I’m curious.
Well, it supposed to be horror. But could be anything, I suppose.
That sounds so sad. It’s supposed to be horro? Interesting. Do you feel like it’s scary? Thanks for visiting my blog!
Sounds emotional. Nice cover.
