TEASER TUESDAYS asks you to:
Happy inauguration day! Hope you’re all finding a way to watch…
This week my teaser comes from The Leanin’ Dog, by K.A. Nuzum. The basic story is a girl, who lives in the mountains — her father is a trapper — has witnessed her mother freezing to death. She’s suffering from grief and guilt and has found that she can’t leave the house. I don’t know how it ends, though; I’m only halfway through.
From page 117 (the she is a dog):
“I can’t,” I said, and I heard my voice low and heavy with shame. “I can’t do that; you’ll have to come on back here.” She set down on her haunches and cocked her head, trying to gather my meaning.
