Teaser Tuesday - Vamped

Teaser Tuesday asks you to:
Grab your current read.
Let the book fall open to a random page.
Share with us two (2) “teaser” sentences from that page, somewhere between lines 7 and 12.
You also need to share the title of the book that you’re getting your “teaser” from … that way people can have some great book recommendations if they like the teaser you’ve given!
Please avoid spoilers!

"When I got to the dorm, I saw that "sanitized" meant that all the pictures had been taken off the walls and the beds stacked up like they weren't in use. Product had been cleared from the bathrooms, which made them seem almost spacious. I'd seen spy shows where cleaners could make a whole crime scene disappear, but I'd never had believed it could be done so quickly if I hadn't witnessed it."
from page 85 of Vamped by Lucienne Diver

Couple of housekeeping notes:
1. As of posting this I have 93 followers, the 100th follower will get a special prize so be on the lookout for that. In a related note Liv is trying to get to 150 followers and she also has surprises coming. So go on over there because her blog rocks.
2. I have been a slave to the restaurant where I work and been working double shifts for the last four days but today is my first day off in a week and I will be catching up on reading/blogging/all the things that get lost when I am working so much. If I owe you emails/packages it will be taken care of today.
3. Because of said crazy schedule I haven't gotten much reading and reviewing done. I will hopefully be picking up the pace so looks for lots of reviews soon!
Hope everyone is having a fabulous week!

I'm not much for reading about vampires but that sure is an eye catching cover! Enjoy your day off.

I'm currently reading UNNATURAL SELECTION by Aaron Elkins. I posted a teaser on my blog (http://varkat.livejournal.com), but I'll let a different page fall open here:

"The end of this one hasn't been completely gnawed off," he told her. "And it's not completely ossified."

Yes, I'm an anthropology geek, so I love his forensic anthropologist hero!

Hey, it's "BEDA Buddy" Beth. The alliteration was totally unintentional. :) I don't use Blogger, but I thought I'd stop by and leave you a comment. I've been really impressed by what I've read so far.

As I met you on MJ's ning, I feel a little silly admitting I'm reading 13 Little Blue Envelopes. I needed to read more of Johnson's work than just her blogs and her part in Let It SnowLines:
"One thing that the Knapps hadn't said but Ginny could abundantly feel (really feel--like it was physically coming in through the back of her head) was that though they liked her enough, they were glad that she wasn't their child. Or rather, if she had been, things would have been different."

Hope your week is fabulous also!

What a great idea. Okay, here goes:

The more I look, the more I start to understand what's going on here, what Minny's done. I don't know why I'm just now getting this.

This is from "The Help" by Kathryn Stockett, a page turner if there ever was one.
