Teaser Tuesday

16 Feb

“I say always, but no. I saw one make it. Once. The night of the harvest moon in October ’56. I saw its black moccasin of a body dart across the sand.

- p. 5 of Shutter Island by Dennis Lehane -

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!

    That sets a creepy mood! Great teaser! I´ve been thinking of seeing the movie, but I´m not sure if it´s worth paying money and then keeping my eyes closed the whole time :D

    We’re reading it for my new book club. We’re going to go see the movie together and then have our meeting. It’s definitely different than what I normally read and I’m not far enough yet to know if I’m going to be scared.
