Teaser Tuesday is a weekly bookish meme hosted by Miz B 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!
Here's my teaser:
Bianca groaned. "I'm supposed to stay out of trouble, remember?"
"Trouble has a way of finding you, whether you're home or in Everafter."
"Are you saying I'm a troublemaker?"
"I'm saying that magic will find you, no matter where you are."
-Glass Forst by Liz DeJesus (from ARC)
Goodreads Summary:
When joined together, Cinderella's slippers grant the wearer her heart's desire. But whose wish will be granted?
When Cinderella’s glass slipper is stolen, Queen Felicia sends her faithful steward Terrance to the real world to retrieve his love and witch-in-training, Bianca Frost. The power of the glass slipper, when paired with its mate, and in the wrong hands, could ruin peace in Everafter. Bianca must gather every bit of magic she has learned in the past few weeks to find the slipper and protect her new love. Together, Bianca, Ming, Prince Ferdinand, and Terrance venture deep into the heart of Everafter to seek clues as to who has stolen the slipper and why. Along the way, they uncover what happened to the Seven Dwarves after Snow White married the prince, but also learn the awful risk of tampering with black magic and the high price that must be paid for magic, even when used for good.
Bianca and Terrance’s relationship is put to the test. Through the pain of suffering and loss, Bianca must determine if following her gallant boyfriend into his faraway world is in fact her heart's desire.

The book will be out in July, so I hope you can read it soon, Melissa! :)
DeleteOoh, how fun!! I just finished Cinder and loved it, so I would hope to like this, as well. Because I love fairy tale spinoffs and retellings - they are so comforting in their nostalgia. I'm really digging the summary and your teaser. Hopefully you're really digging the book, as well, Sarika!
ReplyDeleteYes, they are! I myself am pretty eager to read Cinder after everything I've heard of it. And I'm enjoying the book. I hope you get to read it sometime too. Thanks, Aylee! :)
