TEASER TUESDAYS is a weekly book meme originally featured at Should Be Reading. To participate, just open the book you are currently reading to a random page, and choose two ‘teaser’ sentences from somewhere on that page. (no spoilers!)
I’ve started reading Doctor Sleep by Stephen King the other day. I loved reading The Shining last year, so I’m excited to be reading the sequel. So far it’s living up to expectations!
“Rose?”
“Yes?”
“Am I… am I stil human?”
To this Rose gave the same answer Dick Hallorann had given young Danny Torrance, and in the same cold tone of voice: “Do you care?”
What are you reading right now?
Oooh, that sounds a bit creepy, and since it’s Stephen King, I’m sure that’s just the tip of the iceberg. I hope you enjoy it!!
Here’s My Teaser.

It’s definitely creepy so far, although different from The Shining… I’m not to far into the story yet, but hopefully it stays this good!

No idea there was a sequel to The Shining! Used to read King in my younger days – maybe I’ll revisit someday! Good one though!
Thanks for coming by mine from The Winter Foundlings by Kate Rhodes

He published it in 2013, many years after the The Shining (1977), so that’s probably why… I’m keeping my fingers crossed it will be just as good as his novels in his early days, because his latest novel Mr. Mercedes was quite a disappointment.

I loved this book! I always wondered what happened to little Danny Torrance and I thought this book truly delivered. I’m so glad you’re enjoying this 🙂

Same here! I was always wondering what would happen with Danny, and now I’m reading it I’m really curious about Abra as well! I can’t wait to continue reading, although I’m not sure if it’s wise to read this one home alone and at night… 😉

Loved Abra! This definitely has some disturbing moments, but once I started reading it I had a tough time putting it down!

Yeah, I’m having the same problem right now; I don’t have a lot of time to read and it’s so hard to stop reading! Abra is awesome, I’m loving her character more every page.

Yeah, I guess it does. It definitely sets a tone that will probably become only darker as the story continues…
