Teaser Tuesday: The Wild Rose by Jennifer Donnelly

I was really torn today as to whether I should share from the book I just finished, or the one I just started. In the end, it was the latter that one, mainly because at the beginning of the year I named this as the book that I was looking forward to most this year. That was a tough call to make because in the last few weeks I have read books by Susanna Kearsley and Elizabeth Chadwick that I thought I would love, and I did! Now it's time to see if this book meets my expectations as well.

The teaser comes from page 28 of The Wild Rose by Jennifer Donnelly:

Seamie smiled sadly."That's the hard thing of it, though, Eddie," he said.

"Everyone understands. Everyone but Willa."

Tuesday is hosted by Miz B at Should Be Reading. Head on over to find out  all about it, and how to join in!

  2. Great teaser! I really want to read the first book in this series. I'm reading a book now by an Australian author, taking place in Tasmania: Wildflower Hill by Kimberly Freeman. It's wonderful so far. Have you read it?

    This week my teaser is from Shades of Milk and Honey.

  7. I was reading this, but had to set it aside. I was so excited for it, just like you, and I think it hurt the reading of it for me. I'm going to go back to it soon though and see if I'm in a better mood for it. Sometimes I really hate being such a moody reader!
