Teaser Tuesday - Twenty Boy Summer

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!

"Frankie slams her chair against the table and stomps out of the kitchen. Never leaving the last word to chance, she tosses a casual "Bitch!" over her shoulder and disappears upstairs."

From page 81 of Twenty Boy Summer by Sarah Ockler

    Oh, I can feel the tension a-brewin' and while it's never a good thing, it sure does pique interest in a book! Jealous that you're reading it :)

    Quite the temper there . . . if I didn't know better, I'd say she hit that age around 15 or 16 that a lot of kids go through. I love the brilliant blue heart on the cover - very eye catching.

    Here's my Teaser from The Ten Year Nap! ~ Wendi
