Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along!

• 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 & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!

My teaser Tuesday is from: The Boys in the Trees: A Novel by Mary Swan

"And then he was running through the long grass, wiping at the blood that made it hard to see but not slowing, still running.  The roaring fell away behind and he knew mother would step into the worst of it, but he didn't care; at that moment he didn't even care."
