Teaser Tuesdays #5

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of A Daily Rhythm. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:
  • Grab your current read
  • Open to a random page
  • Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page (some times you need more than two for it to make sense).
  • 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 Lists if they like your teasers!
Here's a peek at this week's book:

Title: My Secret Sister
Authors: Helen Edwards & Jenny Lee Smith
Publisher: Pan Books, an imprint of Pan Macmillan
Publishing Date: March 1, 2013
Genre: Non Fiction

Teasers (p. 106):
"Every Saturday night I was uprooted from my own room to share a bed with another girl who was a complete stranger to me."

"When his wages as an apprentice went up, George bought himself a sleek black overcoat with a black velvet collar. Very trendy at the time. When he came round one day wearing it, my father went ballistic"

What book are you reading? Feel free to leave the link to you Teaser Tuesday in the comments below.

    1. I am enjoying it. There are some parts that are hard to get through because of the sensitivity of some of the topics. Thanks for stopping by!

  5. I have two ideas about the sleeping in a different girls bed each night. Now I'd like to know which is right. Intriguing teasers.
