Teaser Tuesday is a weekly bookish meme hosted by MizB of Books and a Beat If you want to join in grab your current read, flick to a random page, select two sentences (without spoilers) and share them in a blog post or in the comments of Books and a Beat.
This week my teaser comes from Dear Amy by Helen Callaghan which I received as an ARC from NetGalley. It’s a mystery/thriller about a kidnapping and, while I’m only about 15% in, I have a really good feeling about it. I’m totally hooked and don’t want to stop reading which is definitely a good sign.
Synopsis (from GoodReads)
Margot Lewis is the agony aunt for The Cambridge Examiner. Her advice column, Dear Amy, gets all kinds of letters – but none like the one she’s just received:
Dear Amy,
I don’t know where I am. I’ve been kidnapped and am being held prisoner by a strange man. I’m afraid he’ll kill me.
Please help me soon,
Bethan Avery
Bethan Avery has been missing for years. This is surely some cruel hoax. But, as more letters arrive, they contain information that was never made public. How is this happening? Answering this question will cost Margot everything . . .
My Teaser
Don’t let anyone tell you that the gold standard of feeling old is when the police and doctors seem younger than you. It’s the librarians that will get you every time.
~ location 419, Dear Amy by Helen Callaghan
Happy reading everyone.
