TEASER TUESDAY


Teaser Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by MizB at Should Be Reading and slightly altered by Coffee, Books & Lipgloss

Basically a CBL TEASER TUESDAY works like this:

Grab your current read

• Share 2 “teaser” sentences from a random page or a part you rather enjoyed and post it as a teaser.

• 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! 

• As an option, you can give a short snippet of what you think so far... or not. That's optional.

• Share the TITLE and AUTHOR too, so that other participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teaser.



STITCH  (STITCH TRILOGY #1)

BOOK DESCRIPTION
| YA, SCI-FI, PARANORMAL, DYSTOPIA |

Her heart races, her muscles coil, and every impulse in Alessa's body screams at her to run... but yet she's powerless to move.

Still struggling to find her footing after the sudden death of her parents, the last thing college freshman Alessa has the strength to deal with is the inexplicable visceral pull drawing her to a handsome ghostly presence. In between grappling with exams and sorority soirees - and disturbing recurring dreams of being captive in a futuristic prison hell - Alessa is determined to unravel the mystery of the apparition who leaves her breathless. But the terrifying secret she uncovers will find her groping desperately through her nightmares for answers.

Because what Alessa hasn't figured out yet is that she's not really a student, the object of her obsession is no ghost, and her sneaking suspicions that something sinister is lurking behind the walls of her university's idyllic campus are only just scratching the surface...

The opening installment in a twist-laden trilogy, Stitch spans the genres of paranormal romance and dystopian sci-fi to explore the challenges of a society in transition, where morality, vision, and pragmatism collide leaving the average citizen to suffer the results.


"As she packed up her belongings, Alessa hoped that this new knowledge would be enough to lay her recent preoccupation with the ghost to rest. For the sake of her sanity, she at least had to try. If she hadn't known it before, the evening's events had made it abundantly clear that her fixation was getting in the way of her life, and it wasn't healthy.
  There was nothing she could do for Isaac. His life was in the past, and she would have to let him go. Now it was time for Alessa to take care of herself."

I've basically just started this book, and although I sort of know what it's going to revolve around, a certain ghost - I think, I can't tell you much more than this. I'm 32% in, and feel that I've now gotten to know Alessa. The 'what?' of the story hasn't happened as yet, but even if it had, I wouldn't be mentioning it right now as this book is part of a book tour which will be taking place soon enough. Guess you'll all have to wait! :) So far, I'm enjoying it.
