My teaser this week comes from Strange Flesh by Michael Olsen. I’m SO excited to finally be able to break this one open – it just came out TODAY so go check it out! I’ve just started and am already hooked, the prologue is one of the most intense and horrifyingly fascinating that I’ve EVER read. This is definitely not a book for the faint of heart!

Looking back, I see how swiftly the illness spread. How she infected me. How her story took over mine. And the strangest thing about the fever this otherworldly woman ignited in me?

I never even met her.

My teaser this week comes from Slide by Jill Hathaway. I’ve been eagerly anticipating this one for a really long time, I can’t wait to get started on it tonight!

I can never get used to the feeling of looking through someone else’s eyes. It’s as if each person sees the world in a sightly different hue. The tricky part is figuring out who the person is.

Lex wondered, for a fleeting moment, what her principle’s head might look like if it were stabbed atop a giant wooden spear.
“I can’t imagine why you’re smiling young lady,” Mr. Truitt said from behind his desk, “but I can assure you that there is nothing funny about this situation. …”

My teaser this week comes from Partials by Dan Wells I haven’t read any of it yet but it’s been on my wish list since I first saw it! So I’m excited to get started!

The youngest human being on the planet, as far as anyone knew, would be fourteen years old in a month. It was possible that there were survivors on other continents, but no one had ever been able to make contact with them, and over time the refugees on Long Island had come to believe that they were alone.

My teaser this week comes from Shatter by Michael Robotham I haven’t gotten to the first chapter yet, but searching for a teaser and skimming through - I can already tell I’m going to enjoy it!

“It is not about dream interpretation, ESP, multiple personalities, mind-reading, Rorschach Tests, phobias, recovered memories, or repression. And most importantly — it is not about getting in touchwith yourself. If that’s your ambition I suggest you buy a copy of Big Jugs magazine and find a quiet corner.”
