Teaser Tuesday #14: The Graveyard Book

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by A Daily Rhythm.

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 to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!

 

The Graveyard Book 

Who doesn’t love Neil Gaiman? Really tell me who?

I haven’t read many of his books, actually this is the third I get to read, but I enjoy his writing so much! I love the stories he’s crafting and most of all the way he presents them to us. If I close my eyes for a moment while reading, it’s like he’s whispering into my ears! So vivid!

Here’s the tease:

“There was a hand in the darkness, and it held a knife. The knife has a handle of polished black bone, and a blade finer and sharper than any razor. If it sliced you, you might not even know you had been cut, not immediately. The knife had done almost everything it was brought to that house to do, and both the blade and the knife were wet.”
