Has it been a week already? Things are so hectic right now - it's the last week of classes, then next week is finals week! So this is going up late - but it's still Tuesday, haha. Anyway, Teaser Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by MizB at Should Be Reading. To join in, just post a couple teaser sentences from whatever book you're currently reading - but careful not to include any spoilers!
Right now I'm re-reading Girl, Interrupted by Susanna Kaysen. It's been quite some time since I've read this one, but I enjoyed it the first time and I enjoy the movie. So here's a little tease for you:
"After Lisa Cody got her diagnosis, the Lisas started making more trouble. 'Acting out,' the nurses said.
We knew what it was. The real Lisa was proving that Lisa Cody wasn't a sociopath.
Lisa tongued her sleeping meds for a week, took them all at once, and stayed zonked out for a day and a night. Lisa Cody managed to save only four of hers, and when she took them, she puked. Lisa put a cigarette out on her arm at six-thirty in the morning while the nurses were changing shifts. That afternoon Lisa Cody burned a tiny welt on her wrist and spent the next twenty minutes running cold water on it." (p. 59)
Okay, I know that was more than one or two sentences. lol. I can't help it! What are you reading? Leave a link to your Teaser Tuesday in the comments!
I confess that I am FINALLY reading Anne of Green Gables. Love it.
ReplyDeleteI need to re-read this one!!! It is one of my favorite books.
ReplyDeleteI've heard so many good things about this one...just not sure if it is for me...
ReplyDeleteI read this when I was in high school and I remember that it destroyed me. I'm not sure it's a book that I would be able to return to, but I hope you enjoy it on your re-read.
ReplyDeleteOh I love this. I must have watched the movie like a zillion times when I found it. Great Teaser!
