Teaser Tuesdays #5: Remembrance

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!


My Teasers:

“Two years ago I went to Hawaii.” I spoke quickly, wanting to get the focus away
from myself as soon as possible. “We went on a helicopter ride and saw the volcanoes.”
Mrs. Evans looked baffled, and a few students began laughing—Jeremy included.
I looked around, confused. “What?” I asked in English, wondering what was so
funny about helicopters and volcanoes.
“Hawaii’s a state,” Jeremy said, not making an effort to contain his laughter.
“Yeah,” I said, still unsure what the problem was. “I know.”

- page 21, Chapter 4

* I received a PDF copy of this book from the author in exchange of a review. Review to come.



How's Tuesday, everyone? Hope you're all having a great week!
Come back tomorrow for my WWW Wednesdays and Waiting on Wednesday.

  1. Hmmm...makes me wonder what the teacher asked her to answer. Did she accidently think Hawaii was a country?

    Here's my teaser.
