Teaser Tuesdays


Quote a couple of spoiler-free sentences from the book you’re reading to tempt others.

"All of this he remembers and can see as plain as day - he just can't say when it happened. Like a photograph that cannot be placed anywhere specific in the album".
The Wilderness by Samantha Harvey

Excellent extract. I do want to read that at some point!

Paperback Reader said...

Thank you, Verity. I thought that the extract aptly summed up the novel's premise. I am only halfway through reading it but I love it and think it is a contender already for my favourite book of the year, so far.

JoAnn said...

Darlene & JoAnn, so far it is really good and I definitely recommend it! But that is so far.
It was shortlisted for the Orange Prize and has received complimentary reviews by other bloggers.
