"There! There it was again. It was a bright white light-a quick zippy flash-darting between the trees. Gradually, the light faded, moving back into the darkness of the wood until it disappeared completely. Welcome to Mullaby, North Carolina, she thought. Home of ghost lights, giants, and jewelry thieves. She turned to go back in and froze."

Good teaser, Bonnie. I really enjoyed this latest book from SAA!
ReplyDeleteGreat teaser, I really want this book! Mine is at The Crowded Leaf.
ReplyDeleteI really liked her first book, I didn't know she had another one coming out.
ReplyDeleteGreat teaser! This one is on my wish list.
ReplyDeleteHere's my teaser for this week.
I finished this the other day. Another fantastic book from Sarah! I loved it! Hope you're liking it.
ReplyDeleteYour teaser was so good and so lifelike that for a bit I thought you were talking about yourself! Great teaser.
ReplyDeleteI don't exactly have a teaser. Instead I have a quotation, from Emily Dickinson: "“Saying nothing... sometimes says the most.” Now, picture along with this quotation, a photo of a tree, which, believe it or not, depicts the condition of "Speechless." It's part of a fabulous book of nature photography "PersonaliTrees," which shows trees having well, personalities! Besides "speechless," for example, there's also "elation" and "enthusiastic" and "stoic." It's a great coffee table book, and very soothing to the spirit, I might add. Plus -- I saw this for whom this has already occurred, you just won't look at a tree in the same way again.
Happy Tuesday everyone. It is gorgeous where I live, and after a frozen winter I'm ecstatic. And I'm soon going to go for a walk and find a tree that "feels" the same way!
I love that teaser....can't wait to visit Mullaby myself!!!
