The Book of Tomorrow by Cecelia Ahern
"Dad was more into last impressions than first ones, which makes his death all the more symbolic. I was the opposite. Just as I'd given Barbara an easy to way leave me by making bitchy remarks to her, I'd done the same to my mum and dad all my life. I make it easier for people to leave by making them hate me a little."
Pg. 99

It is kind of sad but I know a lot of people like that in my life they feel like they have to push people away all the time that they aren't worth the love and affection. Great Pick!

ReplyDeleteHere is my teaser from Lipstick in Afghanistan by Roberta Gately (Page 1):
ReplyDelete"Do you hear it?" The voice was almost a whisper.
Elsa held her breath, and then she heard it too, a faint rustling of footsteps over twigs and leaves. Out of the corner of her eye, she glimpsed several shadowy figures darting through the trees, and when she turned, she saw a glint of sunlight reflecting off the barrel of an assault rifle.
There was no denying it—the Taliban had found them.
Oh, Jesus! she thought. We'll never escape.
Elsa knew the Taliban's ruthless hatred; the death and destruction they wrought was undeniable.
Seized by a sickening wave of fear, she wanted to cry or throw up, but there was no time. She tried to catch Parween's eye, but her friend was looking back, intent on finding the source of the sound.
"Run!" someone shouted, and suddenly, the chase was on.
What a sad teaser :( Makes me feel sorry for this poor girl.
