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.

Much later, Nora would learn magic for dissolving glue or killing vermin swiftly and painlessly or barring mice from the house altogether, but that morning, the last morning, she later thought of it, as she padded into the kitchen in search of coffee, she was horribly at a loss when she saw the small brown mouse wriggling on the glue trap in the front of the sink.  At the sight of Nora, the mouse froze for an instant, then tried to bolt, but only succeeded in gluing another paw to the sticky cardboard.  "Oh crap," Nora said aloud, "I can't deal with this. Not on top of everything else."

I love the book's title and your Teaser too. I'm not sure how I'd react if I found a mouse stuck in a glue trap in my kitchen!
My Teaser is from IF I LOVED YOU.
