Teaser Tuesday: This Girl is Different by J.J. Johnson



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!

This week I am featuring a teaser from a galley I am reading that I am loving. This Girl is Different by J.J. Johnson will be released in April. 

"I sensed all this before - this guy carried me out of the state forest, after all - but seeing his work; it's all coming together; his hands, his subtle mind with a gift for constructing things; for discerning beauty and utility. This is a person who can make something exquisite and real."
~ This Girl is Different by J.J. Johnson
*I am reading this on my kindle so I don't have the page number to share.*
