Tuesday Teaser


 
 
 
 
 
 Amen, Amen, Amen; Abby Sher
 
Miz B and Teaser Tuesdays asks you to:
 
Grab your current read.
Let the book fall open to a random page.
Share with us two (2) sentences from that page, somewhere between lines 7 and 12.
You also need to share the title of the book that you’re getting your “teaser” from … that way people can have some great book recommendations if they like the teaser you’ve given!
 
(p. 150).... "My prayers continued to hold steady between thirty to forty minutes each morning, and I walked briskly around campus, singing up into the treetops and often shielding my eyes with my hands like blinders so I could keep my dangerous objects pile small.  Sometimes it worked and sometimes I couldn't stop the blowout from engulfing my brain".
 
(This memoir really is very good).
