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 and author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!

Mallory
killed her boyfriend, Brian. She can't remember the details of that
night but everyone knows it was self-defense, so she isn't charged.
But Mallory still feels Brian's presence in her life. Is it all in
her head? Or is it something more? In desperate need of a fresh
start, Mallory is sent to Monroe, a fancy prep school where no one
knows her . . . or anything about her past. But the feeling follows
her, as do her secrets. Then, one of her new classmates turns up
dead. As suspicion falls on Mallory, she must find a way to remember
the details of both deadly nights so she can prove her innocence-to
herself and others.
In
another riveting tale of life and death, Megan Miranda's masterful
storytelling brings readers along for a ride to the edge of sanity
and back again.

MY TEASER
Scarlet was not the color of blood. And despite what Nathaniel Hawthorne led me to believe, it wasn't the color of shame either. I should know. Brian's blood had stained the kitchen tiles a fire-engine red. And as I watched him slide to the floor, the color I felt inside was a deep, deep burgundy. (eARC location 43)
