Here is my teaser: 

Throughout the year that followed, I thought about that Sunday morning and how Mama's visit had cooled me down and cheered me. Even during the worst of troubles that came later, I smiled whenever I recalled that visit and how sweet it had been for her to come by, looking all done up in that cute sky-blue dress I hadn't seen in the six years since we buried her in it. -Edward Kelsey Moore in The Supremes at Earl's All-You-Ca -Eat.

  My Teaser:
  
  
  But it wasn't until she crossed the dirt yard and stepped inside the cabin that she felt something was really wrong. Someone had been here, she thought, inside this very cabin. It was the stillness that spooked her. Not the kind of emptiness that comes with actual vacancy, but a rather kind of strained quiet that was trying too hard, a tightness that comes when someone somewhere is trying very hard to be still, to restrain every twitch and wayward breath.

My teaser:

"You can't say stuff like that to a kid asking about her mother when it's snowing outside or raining. You can't say, "Your mother lives on the street, in a hole in the wall, sleeping on park benches next to winos." page 23

My Teaser for today:
"I knelt on the floor, and with a fairly easy push and pull, the floorboard popped up enough for me to get my fingers under it and pull it up. It would have been the perfect hiding spot but for one thing. There was already something there."
Page 20-21 of Moon Over Manifest by Clare Vanderpool

Well, OK, that was three sentences, actually.....

Happy Tuesday!
