Teaser Tuesdays

MizB of Should Be Reading hosts Teaser Tuesdays. Anyone can play along. Just do the following:

*Grab your current read.Link*Open to a random page.
*Share two "teaser" sentences from somewhere on that page.

*BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! You don't want to ruin the book for others.
*Share the title and author too, so other TT participants can add it to their TBR lists if they like your teaser.
Here's mine from The Book Thief by Markus Zusak (p, 48):

Insane or not, Rudy was always destined to be Liesel's best friend. A snowball in the face is surely the perfect beginning to a lasting friendship.

What a beautiful teaser - nothing like a snowball to a face to indicate lasting friendship indeed! I absolutely loved this book. Reading your teaser makes me want to pick it up again!

@Karen...it's a shame you didn't make it to the end (which I just did). Totally had me weeping. I don't do that often.
