My teaser:

She'd tucked her hair into a fashionably untidy bun to accompany one of the few dresses she hadn't put up for consignment, a sleeveless caramel sheath she's accessorized with costume hoop earrings.  Her arms still felt bare without her bangles.

My teaser this week:

Fir bark and spruce buds were kept on the boil in a large iron cauldron, the concoction ladled into half-barrels where the twine was soaked before laid out on the bawn to cure.  A handful of boys horsing around nearby, Tryphie and Patrick Devine's eight-year-old, Eli, leading the games of pitch-and-toss and tag while the men shouted at the them to mind their step, to keep clear of the fire, to shag off home out of it.

This week's teaser:

Using tongs, Ariane gingerly picked up the gloves, scowling as she recalled all these innocent-looking garments had nearly cost her.  Part of her wished she had never seen the accursed things and part of her was more determined than ever to find a way to use them against the Dark Queen, to make that woman pay...

This week's teaser (a little more than 2 sentences):

The last time we were together, we kissed.  I can't help but fantasize about our reunion.  Toph picking me out of the crowd, being unable to pry his eyes from me, dedicating songs to me.  Meeting him backstage.  Kissing him in dark corners.  I could be on the verge of an entire winter break spent making out with Toph.  By the time we arrive at the club, my stomach in knots, but in such a good way. ~ taken from page 221, Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins

My teaser this is week:

Whether it was prayer or the herbal incense or my medication or simply the passage of time, Miss Marmaduke reemerged into the world much improved in appearance and in manner. At dinner that evening I was surprised to see her wearing a forest-green frock that flattered her sallow complexion and displayed a figure more shapely that I had expected.

I have two teasers this week.

Teaser # 2:

No other people or dogs in sight.
The bottom line? Owning Lilith was exhausting.
