This is a really fun meme!

The only rules are to grab a book (any book), turn to page 56 or 56% in your eReader and find a sentence or a few (no spoilers) that grabs you and post it.

My 56 for this week is from:

Teeth In The Mist

  by Dawn Kurtagich

Genre: YA / Fantasy / Retelling / Horror

There was nothing on page 56 so I used an excerpt from page 65 in the Paperback.

A gargoyle leers down at them from one corner of the ceiling. Roan shudders. Never before has she seen one so realistically sculpted, nor indoors. Used to ward off evil in holy places, they are usually placed outside the dwelling.

I can’t wait to sink my teeth into this one. It sounds chilling and perhaps a bit gothic.

And that cover!!! What do you think?

Synopsis

Before the birth of time, a monk uncovers the Devil’s Tongue and dares to speak it. The repercussions will be felt for generations…

Sixteen-year-old photography enthusiast Zoey has been fascinated by the haunted, burnt-out ruins of Medwyn Mill House for as long as she can remember–so she and her best friend, Poulton, run away from home to explore them. But are they really alone in the house? And who will know if something goes wrong?

In 1851, seventeen-year-old Roan arrives at the Mill House as a ward–one of three, all with something to hide from their new guardian. When Roan learns that she is connected to an ancient secret, she must escape the house before she is trapped forever.

1583. Hermione, a new young bride, accompanies her husband to the wilds of North Wales where he plans to build the largest water mill and mansion in the area. But rumors of unholy rituals lead to a tragic occurrence and she will need all her strength to defeat it.

Three women, centuries apart, drawn together by one Unholy Pact. A pact made by a man who, more than a thousand years later, may still be watching…

      Yes it did. I opened it last night when I got home from work. Was going to let you know today. I thought you might spot this post. Thanks for the amazing package!

  3. I really want to read this one and I love gargoyles! Bet this isn’t the nice cuddly ones though. Can gargoyles be considered cuddly?
