Teaser Tuesday: The Help





" Standing On that white lady's back porch, I tell myself, Tuck it in, Minny. Tuck in whatever might fly out my mouth and tuck in my behind too."

Chapter 3
The Help
by Kathryn Stockett




TEASER TUESDAYS is hosted by Should be Reading

  • Grab your current read.





  • Let the book fall open to a random page.





  • Share with us two (2) “teaser” sentences from that page, somewhere between lines 7 and 12.





  • You also need to share the title of the book that you’re getting your “teaser” from … that way people can have some great book recommendations if they like the teaser you’ve given!





  • Please avoid spoilers!

      I read this when it was first released and loved it. Hope the movie is good as well.

      I have heard a lot about this book but haven't had a chance to read it. I'm glad you are enjoying it.

      My teasers are from Spell Bound by Kelley Armstrong and Haunting Violet by Alyxandra Harvey. Happy reading!
