Teaser Tuesday - Midnight Crossroad by Charlaine Harris


Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of 
Rules:
• 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!

This week's teasers come from an ARC thanks to Penguin Books. Midnight Crossroad by Charlaine Harris is due out May 6, 2014 by Ace Hardcover. As with all ARCs, the sentences may be different in the final copy.

My teasers come from the bottom of p.35 to the top of p.36.
He's talking about 2 different people who had just entered the restaurant to join the table of locals for dinner.

"When Lemuel had joined them, wildness and death had walked in the door, though the drama inherent in that statement made Manfred uncomfortable. When Olivia stepped inside, it was sort of like the first appearance of Lauren Bacall in an old movie. You knew someone amazing had entered the room, and you knew she didn't suffer fools gladly."

What are your teasers this week?

  2. I haven't read any other of Harris' books other than the Sookie books. I'll have to venture out and see.

    1. This is my first book of hers outside the Sookie books. So far so good. I am about 55 pages in. I will review it when I'm done. I loved your Teaser this week.
