Forged (An Altered Series Prequel) by Jennifer Rush
Publisher: Little Brown Books for Young Readers
Publication Date: December 3, 2013
Teasers are from Ebook Pages: 6
"Growing up, my mother had always said I was beautiful, but it was never meant as praise. She had the rare gift of turning compliments into disparaging remarks."
"It wasn't until about a year ago that I started to realize that being pretty wasn't such a bad thing. And just to drive the point home to my mother, I started wearing tighter shirts, shorter skirts, and push-up bras. She tried grounding me, but by that point I'd outgrown her, both physically and mentally. I'd learned how to intimidate her from the best teacher: my father."

Mothers and daughters are always tricky situations. I hope you enjoy the book.
ReplyDeleteI agree. My mom and I never got to see eye to eye when I was younger, but thankfully things became better for us now that we're both adults.
ReplyDeleteI don't often read young adult books, but this sounds like one I'd enjoy. I already like the character with her push-up bras and tight skirts!
ReplyDeleteMy Teaser is from CHRISTMAS CALLING.
I really love this series! Great teasers. Makes me ready for Erased!
