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 and author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!
"The town as Wilder and Lane portray it contains a leavening of freethinking individuals to correct the impulses of those too prone to go along with the crowd or fail to act on their own behalf. Cap Garland does not follow the others as they head the wrong way from the schoolhouse in a blizzard; heeding his own instincts, he goes the right direction and is able to go for help for the others."
