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

    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.

    Darlene & JoAnn, so far it is really good and I definitely recommend it! But that is so far.
