Here's my Teaser:
What did it say? She considered tearing it open right that second, before she had time to think about it, like the way she sometimes (not very often) shoved the last piece of chocolate in her mouth, before her conscience had time to catch up with her greed.

Synopsis from Goodreads:
My Darling Cecilia
If you're reading this, then I've died . . .
Imagine your husband wrote you a letter, to be opened after his death. Imagine, too, that the letter contains his deepest, darkest secret - something so terrible it would destroy not just the life you built together, but the lives of others too. Imagine, then, that you stumble across that letter while your husband is still very much alive.
Cecilia Fitzpatrick achieved it all - she's an incredibly successful business woman, a pillar of her small community and a devoted wife and mother. Her life is as orderly and spotless as her home. But that letter is about to change everything, and not just for her: Rachel and Tess barely know Cecilia - or each other - but they too are about to feel the earth-shattering repercussions of her husband's devastating secret.
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!)
• Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!
Well, you have me interested in knowing what that secret is. My teaser: A Journey to the Center of the Earth

I read this one when it was first released in Australia and really liked it. Keen to hear what you think.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my blog!
I enjoyed the Australia setting a lot. I also liked the way the author connected one character's Tupperware business with the way she lived her life -- contained and organized but also a little sterile. I'll probably read this book again in the future.
DeleteOoh, this does sound interesting. I never heard of it before Thanks for stopping by my TT @ Addicted Readers. :)
ReplyDeleteI loved this book and you've chosen a great teaser :-)
ReplyDeleteIt took me a little while to get into the book, mainly because there are three stories that intertwine. But I loved it.
DeleteI've seen this one on several blogs and I really really want to read this!
ReplyDeletewow, explosive stuff!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed this one a lot...and I liked how we didn't know what the letter said for quite awhile. Thanks for sharing...and for visiting my blog.
ReplyDeleteMy curiosity about the letter kept me reading, plus I came to like the characters. The Australia setting was fun too.
DeleteGreat teaser! I like the analogy. The book sounds pretty intense, I'm curious as to what the letter says now! Also, I love things set in Australia haha. Thanks for sharing & stopping by Bookmunchies (:
