Tuesday Teasers: "Afterwards" and "A Dog's Purpose"

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should  Be Reading. Anyone can play along, so I thought  I  would play for fun! 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 and author, too, so that other TT participants can  add the book to their TBR  Lists  if they  like your teaser.   

Gerard's:

I screamed her name. Over and over. And each time I screamed her name, smoke came into my mouth and throat and lungs until I couldn't scream anymore.

From page 19 of Afterwards by Rosamund Lupton.

Karen's:

Of all the things I'd ever done, making Senora laugh seemed the most important.
It was, I reflected, the only thing that gave my life any purpose.

From page 54 of A Dog's Purpose by W. Bruce Cameron.
