Because of the nature of today's Top Ten Tuesday (I don't like to dwell on annoying characters) I've decided to tease you instead ;) I'm writing this Saturday night and will be in Barcelona as it goes online, so bear with me if it takes me till Thursday to get back to people (I'm back from my trip on Wednesday afternoon).
I'm not that far in this book yet but I'm really enjoying both the story and the writing!
Here is my teaser, it's our main character Alison having dinner at the cafeteria and meeting some of her fellow-patients for the first time.
add it on goodreads 'Age'?'Sixteen. Well, seventeen next month.''Ooh, I love an older woman,' said Kirk, mock-leering. 'Favourite colour?'The colour of serenity, of feeling safe and confident and whole. On the piano, it was the B-flat below middle C; in the alphabet, the first letter of my name.'Violet', I said.'So what's your psychosis?'- paperback edition, page 72
About the book:
Once upon a time there was a girl who was special. This is not her story.
Unless you count the part where I killed her.
Sixteen-year-old Alison has been sectioned in a mental institute for teens, having murdered the most perfect and popular girl at school. But the case is a mystery: no body has been found, and Alison’s condition is proving difficult to diagnose. Alison herself can’t explain what happened: one minute she was fighting with Tori—the next she disintegrated. Into nothing. But that’s impossible. Right?

So what do you guys think about the book / my teaser? Have you read it? And what book did you choose to tease the rest of us with this week?
