-TO Read-
6) Ten by Gretchen McNeil
7) Anna Dressed in Blood by Kendare Blake

Teaser Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by MizB @ Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:
Grab you'r current read
Open the book to a random page
Share with us two (2) "teasers" sentences form that page
Be careful not to include spoilers! (make sure what you share doesn't give away too much! You don't want to ruin the book for others!)
Share the title of the book so other TT participants can add the book to their TBR pile if they'd like
Today my teaser comes from...
..."Stupid, pigheaded, obstinate, obnoxious, oviparous, egg-sucking, boy." I both laid and sucked eggs? That didn't make sense. Whatever.
Ashen Winter by Mike Mullin

Oh yes, Ten by Gretchen McNeil is a definite must-read. (apparently) I'll be reading it soon :) Great pick!
I'm waiting for it to come to the store, but the only store close to me doesn't have it yet. The library will probably get it before I get the chance to buy it.
Thank you for stopping by! (=
Great teaser, very funny! I can't wait to read Ashen Winter. We have several books on our lists that we share. I just finished Alice in Zombieland and it was one of my favorites this year! Here is my Top Ten.

Forest of Hands and Teeth gave me nightmares while on a camping trip. :) And Anna Dressed in Blood was really, really good.
Here's my teaser: http://duckduckcow.blogspot.com/2012/10/teaser-tuesday-blue-is-for-nightmares.html
Even more than your teaser, I love the cursor on your page!
Here's my teaser: I love Dan Brown
Vyki: I loved Ashfall, I received Ashen Winter back in April, but had to contain myself not to read it because I had other books for review.
-You'r making it very hard, I have an addiction to beautiful covers, lol.
Jenny: Thank you, I couldn't decide between this teaser or a different one, I was going to put them both on, but chose that one instead.
emaginette: Thanks I don't really read a lot of scary books, I love scary movies though!
Sandy: The Unbecoming is not really a scary book in the way with monsters but its more of a psychological one.
Jessica: You'r brave to take a scary book with you while you go on a camping trip! LOL! I would of been a sissy and taken something like The Dark Guardian series! Which I love!
Duncan: Thanks I found it on Totally Free Cursors. Here's the website http://www.totallyfreecursors.com/
Thank you all for the comments.
I love a good scary book so I'm totally adding these to my to-read list! Thanks for the ideas.
Your so welcome! Hope you like them as much as I did. (=
