Tuesday Intro/Teaser

First Chapter First Paragraph Tuesday Intros is a weekly meme hosted by Diane at Bibliophile by the Sea every Tuesday. To participate share the opening paragraph or two of a book you've decided to read based on that paragraph. Please feel free to join in, First Chapter~First Paragraph~Tuesday Intros.




"Some people run toward life, arms flung wide in anticipation. Others crack open the door and take a one-eyed peek to see what's out there. Then there are those who give up on life long before their heart stops beating - all used up, worn out, and caved in, yet they wake each morning and shuffle their tired legs through another day. Maybe they're hoping for a change - a miracle, even - but runaway dreams and lost years hang heavily on their backs. It's the only coat they know how to wear. They've become accustomed. That's what I thought when Mama pushed open the screen door and stepped out on the back porch."


Looking For Me by Beth Hoffman - one of my most anticipated reads! 




Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of  Should Be Reading.




Counting down the days to my daughter's wedding!  Five days..
