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 & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!

Book: BETWEEN
By:Jessica Warman
Hardcover; 447 pages
Release Date: August 2, 2011
Elizabeth Valchar - pretty, popular and rich - wakes up the morning after her 18th birthday on the yacht where she'd been celebrating with her closest friends. A persistent thumping noise has roused her. When she goes to investigate, she finds her own drowned body is hitting the side of the boat. Liz is dead. She has no memory of what happened to her, and can only observe in horror the fallout of her death.

She's also joined by Alex Berg, a quiet boy from her high school who was killed by a hit-and-run driver. The two keep each other company, floating in and out of memories and trying to piece together the details of what happened to each of them.

In her regular life, Liz was a runner. It wasn't abnormal for her to run 8-10 miles per day. But as memories from closer to her death begin to surface, Liz finds that she'd been running much more than normal, and that she'd all but stopped eating. Liz's mother, who died when Liz was nine, had battled anorexia as well, and those around her worry that Liz was following in her mother's footsteps. But something more sinister was consuming Liz from the inside out...

Teasers:

"Of all the people to end up dead with," he says, shaking his head, "it had to be you, didn't it?" ~ Page 116

"Then what else did you see, Alex? Did you see what happened that night on the boat?" Something is changing. He begins to appear wispy, almost translucent. "What's happening to you? Alex?" ~ Page 388
