Teaser Tuesday #18: Shine

Teaser Tuesdays 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 “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
Make sure you do not include spoilers
Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!

Teaser Tuesday #18: Shine

Dust coated the windows, the petunias in the flower boxes bowed their heads, and spiderwebs clotted the eaves of the porch. Once I might have marvelled at the webs - how delicate they were, how intricate - but today I saw ghastly silk ropes. Nooses for sawflies and katydids and everything guileless enough to be ensnared.

Taken from the first chapter of my ARC of Shine by Lauren Myracle. If the story is as good as its cover I'm in for a treat!

Feel free to share your teaser below!
