Teaser Tuesdays: The Haunting Season


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 (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
• 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!)
• Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers! (If you're on Goodreads, I've included a button to add the book to your list just below the teaser!)

This week, as sort of a "prequel" to a book blitz, I'm sharing a teaser from The Haunting Season, a new adult horror book. Check back later this week for my official book blitz post, complete with my review, more about the book and the author, and a giveaway for an eBook copy!


Since the incident with the knives, Jess didn't like wandering the house alone at night. Not that having Allison with her would do much good. If anything, having a demon magnet for a roommate should have meant keeping away from her.

    Okay, that teaser sounds really interesting, but I'm also a huge scaredy-cat, so not sure I'll be able to read this book!

    The teaser is really intriguing and it made want to read it, but when I saw it was a new adult HORROR book ... Sorry I might be a chicken but horror isn't my style :)

    Hi Melissa, first time visitor! I like that teaser. It shows perspective from two points of view. I can think of a few places in my WIP I can do that.
