Teaser Tuesdays

Teaser Tuesdays asks you to:

Grab your current read.
Let the book fall open to a reandom page.
Share with us two (2) 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!

My two teasers are from page 138 in the novel MUDBOUND by Hillary Jordan, a wonderfully written story of post-WWII in the Mississippi delta.
