Teaser Tuesday: Four Today

Gerard's:

Logan's secretiveness had bothered her.  She'd called the only two people in her life who would care, her friend Marilyn and her former boss from the bookstore.

From page 17 of The First Wife by Erica Spindler (click link to see my review)
  
When Dara got metal pins in her kneecaps and swore she would never speak to me again, and when Mom went silent for weeks and started taking sleeping pills every night and waking up too groggy to go to work and the hospital bills kept coming, kept coming, like autumn leaves after a storm.
But why weren't we good enough before?

From page 26 of Vanishing Girls by Lauren Oliver.

Karen's: 

They've pulled me inside out, swapping Mare for Mareena, a thief for a crown, rags for silk, Red for Silver.  This morning I was a servant, tonight I'm a princess.

From page 104 of Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard.

    A wicked hope filled two watching eyes as Alec Ramsay and his horse almost went down.  But the boy kept the black legs driving beneath him and the race went on.     

From page 4 of The Black Stallion Mystery by Walter Farley.


Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of A Daily Rhythm. Anyone can play along, so I thought  I  would play for fun! Just pick two sentences from the book you are reading.
Happy Reading!

"The First Wife" by Erica Spindler is GREAT!

The First Wife by Erica Spindler is about Baily, a young woman who dreams of meeting "Mr. Right."  She meets Logan Abbot and quickly falls in love.  They get married but when they get back to his farm after the honeymoon, she hears rumors about women who have gone missing and Logan is a suspect!  She does not want to believe it but as time goes on and events happen, she wonders if it is true and if she is safe.

This is a GREAT book, a real page turner with a fantastic ending!  There are lots of twists and turns before you finally know how it all plays out.

"The Enchanted" by Rene Denfeld

The Enchanted by Rene Denfeld is a different kind of book for sure.  It is told by a nameless person that we do not know until the very end.  It takes place in a prison with a man on death row who is visited by a lady and a fallen priest.  The story is told well and I got into it.  The ending is very good.

"The Reluctant Psychic" by Suzan Saxman is Interesting

The Reluctant Psychic by Suzan Saxman is a true story.  When Suzan was little she saw monsters and other things that scared her.  When she told people, they were scared of her, including her own mother!  One day Suzan was told she had the ability to see things that other people do not.  She believed it! 

This book was interesting to say the least even though I myself do not believe in readings or psychics.  At the end of each chapter she tells stories of people who came to her for readings.

"H Is for Hawk" by Helen MacDonald"

H Is for Hawk by Helen MacDonald tells a true story and what a story it is!  Helen is trying to deal with the unexpected passing of her father.  She has always had an interest in hawks and falcons that she picked up from her dad.  She decides to try to tame a Goshawk--a pretty hard if not next to impossible task!  She named it Mabel.

My favorite parts of this book is when she trains and connects with the hawk, not that other parts were bad though, far from it!
