Tuesday Teaser


 
Teaser Tuesday is hosted by Should be Reading:

This week I would like to present a fragment from "The River King" by Alice Hoffman. I am reading it right now.

News traveled quickly at Haddan and by noon most people knew there had been a death. After the initial course of hearsay and gossip, people overloaded on rumours and simply shut down. All across campus there was silence in unexpected places.

    That is a very nice snippet. It seems like an elegant piece of writing.

    The Dracula in love book is interesting. It's a revisionist tale of Dracula it's told from Mina Harker's perspective.
