Teaser Tuesday: 10.19.10

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme (that I unfortunately forget to participate in weekly), hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:

1. Grab your current read
2. Open to a random page
3. Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
4. BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS!
5. Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!

I know, my participation Teaser Tuesday is sporadic. The problem is that usually by the time I remember it after finding something I want to share, it's already Wednesday. But never fear! Today, I'm sharing something from Richard Peck's new book Three Quarters Dead:

Anyway, I could feel Tanya from here, the tug of Tanya. The old woman has said, "Run for your life." And, really, wasn't I? What kind of life did I have without them?

Spooky, huh? This is turning out to be a great read for Halloween time.
