My teaser is from very early on in the book, page 2 to be exact. But, I thought it was one of the best examples of the type of sense of humor that is pervasive in this book.
""Mr. Nossik hung motivational posters on the walls of the classroom- things about perseverance, integrity and shit like that.
One of them said this:"Opportunity: When one door closes, another one opens."
The first time we saw that one, Cade Hernandez, my best friend, said, "Sounds like he lives in a fucking haunted house."
It's sort of a coming of age story and adventure story as much as life is an adventure. The main character and point of view is Finn Easton a junior in high school. He happens to also be epileptic. The way he describes his seizures is kind of beautiful.
What are you reading? What's your teaser this week? Please share a link, or the teaser if you don't have a blog, in the comments so we can check it out. Happy Reading!
BTW: This book is available to read on Simon and Schuster's Pulseit.com site this week for free. I get no compensation for sharing that with you.
