Teaser Tuesdays (26): THE MAGNOLIA LEAGUE




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'S TEASER IS:


TITLE: THE MAGNOLIA LEAGUE
AUTHOR: Katie Crouch
PUBLICATION DATE: 3 May 2011

"Oh, but the Allmans rock," I say.

"If you're seventy." Madison has clearly had enough of my whole grains for the evening.

"We're the New South," Hayes says, "Like Justin Timberlake."

"Ugh, Hayes. Eeee-nough," Madison drawls. "Justin Timberlake lives in LA. He abandoned Memphis at, like, thirteen. And don't let her fool you, Alex. Savannah's still Savannah, and for a lot of people down here, being Southern is a full-time job."

"Waiting on" Wednesday (16): The Magnolia League


"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.



This week, my WoW pick is:


TITLE: THE MAGNOLIA LEAGUE
AUTHOR: Katie Crouch
IMPRINT: Poppy
PUBLICATION DATE: 3 May 2011

After the death of her free-spirited mother, sixteen-year-old Alex Lee must leave her home in northern California to live with her wealthy grandmother in Savannah, Georgia. By birth, Alex is a rightful, if unwilling, member of the Magnolia League, Savannah's long-standing debutante society. She quickly discovers that the Magnolias have made a pact with a legendary hoodoo family, the Buzzards. The Magnolias enjoy youth, beauty and power. But at what price?
