Teaser Tuesday

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the follow:

• Grab your current read
• Opening toli a random page
• Share two (2) "teaser" sentences from somewhere on that page
• Share Title & Author, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!
• 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!)

Here's my teaser this week:

"Suddenly she felt someone—most likely the Goodwife, and boy, had she ever underestimated intestinal fortitude of that lady—running for the switches which governed the circuit-breakers in her head.  Goody had seen tendrils of smoke starting to seep out through the cracks in the closed doors of those panels, had understood what they meant, and was making a final, desperate effort to shut down the machinery before the motors overheated and the bearings froze."

Gerald's Game by Stephen King, 192
