Teaser Tuesdays

Teaser Tuesdays TEASER TUESDAYS asks you to:

  • Grab your current read.
  • Let the book fall open to a random page.
  • Share with us two (2) “teaser” sentences from that page, somewhere between lines 7 and 12.
  • You also need to share the title of the book that you’re getting your “teaser” from - that way people can have some great book recommendations if they like the teaser you’ve given!

But these other matters were altogether more terrifying, because they were intangible and inexplicable, incapable of proof and yet so deeply affecting. I began to realise that what had frightened me most - and, as I investigated my own thoughts and feelings that morning, what continued to frighten me - was not what I had seen - there had been nothing intrinsically repellent or horrifying about the woman with the wasted face.

From The Woman in Black by Susan Hill, p. 85.
