Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:
- 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!)
After the death of her free-spirited mother, sixteen-year-old Alex Lee must leave her home in northern California to live with her wealthy grandmother in Savannah, Georgia. By birth, Alex is a rightful, if unwilling, member of the Magnolia League, Savannah's long-standing debutante society. She quickly discovers that the Magnolias have made a pact with a legendary hoodoo family, the Buzzards. The Magnolias enjoy youth, beauty and power. But at what price?My teaser:
As in her popular adult novels, Crouch's poignant and humorous voice shines in this seductively atmospheric story about girls growing up in a magical Southern city.
Fine, OK. I have no friends here, I know no one, and I really should have probably said yes to that party thing. Still, if there's one thing Mom taught me, it was to be try to myself.
I love the style of cover and teaser sounds interesting.

Great cover and teaser!
ReplyDeleteI have this one too but haven't read it. Good teaser!
ReplyDeleteThe word "try" makes this interesting. Perhaps we can't naturally be ourselves, but we can "try" to be ourselves?
