Teaser Tuesdays: Bubblewrap

bubble

I just finished this book last week, and I am pleasantly surprised, even a tad impressed by the quality of this book. The writing is uneven in places (maybe because I have an early copy of the book?), but the story is mind-blowing. Here’s a taste:

There is something about the train rides that make people from all emotional backgrounds look similar. They all look sleepy. It’s like a fill in the blank in someone’s life.

One can fill it with any number of thoughts or just some sound sleep but I guess nothing else changes about you while you are on the ride.

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!

    That’s a perfect description of what it’s like to be in a train station late at night! I sometimes feel that getting ARCs means you don’t get an actual finished product and then some of the writing is disappointment! Thanks for sharing 🙂 hope you have a great week!

    I think I’d need a little more to decide, but it does sound intriguing.
