Teaser Tuesday is newly hosted by Ambrosia at The Purple Booker. To play along, just do the following:- Grab your current read - Open to a random page - Share two “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 list if they like your teaser. My teaser this week is from The Spinster's Guide to Scandalous Behavior by Jennifer McQuiston:
She was searching for a handhold, a peg on which she could hang her future. Something to define her, beyond what society expected of her. She wanted someone to love her, to share her life, but she wanted to be able to trust that person.

My teaser this week is from The Spinster's Guide to Scandalous Behavior by Jennifer McQuiston:
The girl must have a core of steel to cross her father in this way. In fact, there were elements to her letter that reminded him suspiciously - painfully - of a certain deceased spinster. Miss Westmore sounded like a very determined young woman, and if she was anything like her aunt, he'd made a misstep in negotiating with her father instead of her.

My teaser this week is from Diary of an Accidental Wallflower by Jennifer McQuiston:
She was being selfish, only thinking of herself and her dangerous reaction to the kiss that probably hadn't meant anything. In sending Daniel away, had she just removed the most important positive influence in Lucy's and Geoffrey's lives?

I am currently reading Diary of an Accidental Wallflower by Jennifer McQuiston who is a newly discovered author for me. I am loving this book so very much. It's well-written and quite funny. In face, I laughed so hard at part of the book this book this afternoon that I actually snorted. I then had to call my husband and share the scene in the book with him because I knew he'd find it funny, as well. He did and we both learned a new word in the process. I'm thrilled that this is the first book in a trilogy. I will definitely be reading the next two books.
