Teaser & Top Ten Tuesdays

 

Teaser Tuesday is a weekly feature hosted by Purple Princess of The Purple Booker. 

Here are the rules:

1. Grab your current read
2. Open to a page
3. Pick out 2 lines that are SPOILER FREE
4. Name the title, author, etc.

 

At the time of writing this...lack of sleep is catching up with me. Again. So I've a quote I wrote down from my current read, but it's one line and I didn't note the page number. So a bit of a fail, but for some reason the quote struck something in me.

 

"'Pain understands pain, without having to say a word.'"*

*Quote comes from the ARC, therefore it is not final.
