Tease Tuesday: Spooky Little Girl by Laurie Notaro


Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. 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
  • 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 and author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!
My tease is from the ARC of Spooky Little Girl by Laurie Notaro that I received as part of LibraryThing's Early Reviewers.
Nola especially liked the episodes in which women got dental work or were awarded some sort of facial implant for their suffering. Episodes in which, upon the big reveal, the accountant, who'd never noticed the victim before now suddenly did, thus guaranteeing courtship, marriage, and a litter of offspring with unfortunate bone structure.

    Hmmm. Not sure what I think from the teaser. My teaser is from The Language of Bees.

    I love the cover, this is one of those books I would pick up just because of its cover. The teaser you chose is very intriguing...definitely makes you think.

    Fantastic teaser and I loved the cover! It sounds like she is talking about one of those reality T.V. shows where they give people serious makeovers. I'll have to look into this one.
