Teaser Tuesday (15): Scarlet by Marissa Meyer

Teaser Tuesday 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!

This week's teaser comes from the following book:

Title:  Scarlet (Lunar Chronicles #2)
Author:  Marissa Meyer
Publisher:  Feiwel & Friends
Published:  February 5, 2013

 Amazon  |  B&N | The Book Depository



Cinder returns in the second thrilling installment of the New York Times-bestselling Lunar Chronicles. She’s trying to break out of prison—even though if she succeeds, she’ll be the Commonwealth’s most wanted fugitive.




Halfway around the world, Scarlet Benoit’s grandmother is missing. It turns out there are many things Scarlet doesn’t know about her grandmother and the grave danger she has lived in her whole life. When Scarlet encounters Wolf, a street fighter who may have information as to her grandmother’s whereabouts, she has no choice but to trust him, though he clearly has a few dark secrets of his own.

As Scarlet and Wolf work to unravel one mystery, they find another when they cross paths with Cinder. Together, they must stay one step ahead of the vicious Lunar Queen who will do anything to make Prince Kai her husband, her king, her prisoner.

 

My teaser:

"The fighter's pale eyes darted to Scarlet, and for a moment

she sensed a connection between them. 

Here they were, both outcasts.  Unwanted.  Crazy."

This book is so good!  I'm loving the characters in Scarlet, and I'm so happy to be reacquainted with those from Cinder!

I'd love to know what your teaser is!
