The Sense of Paper
Charlie now felt certain that it was Angela, not Alan, who’d painted the grotesques she’d found in his studio. Could it be that the demons Angela painted were the same that drove her to suicide?
Everyone is Beautiful
It seemed crazy to leave the three most precious people in my life in the care of a person who had never said a nice thing to me until tonight. And yet, it also seemed crazy to stay home when I could so easily go.

I’m in my cottage in Suffolk, working on a book about the great English watercolorist, J.M.W. Turner, and the handmade art paper he used. I’m trying to figure out what to believe about my lover, Sir Alan Matheson – is he a misunderstood father or a monster? (The Sense of Paper)
I’m also in Cambridge, Massachusetts, where my family has just moved so that my husband can study musical composition. I have three children, ages four to 10 months, and I barely have time to take a shower, let alone take control of my life. (Everyone is Beautiful)
And I’m in the mountains of North Carolina with my husband, Jamie, on our homestead, Fraser’s Ridge. My husband’s friend, Lord John Grey, has just arrived for a visit with his stepson, William. William is Jamie’s son, although no one is supposed to know this. (Drums of Autumn, Diana Gabaldon)

You are well-traveled! I may participate in this meme today…we’ll see. I am short on reviews because I am in the middle of some long books. (BTW…only 10 more discs til the end of Drums!) I loved Everyone is Beautiful. I listened to it on audio and thoroughly enjoyed it!
Great teasers!
You’re everywhere!!! Loved your teasers!!

Ladybug – thanks.
Staci – yep, I have reading ADHD.
Katherine – thanks for stopping by – I am enjoying it very much.
Oh my – I absolutely LOVED Everyone is Beautiful – and I loved the lady who was babysitting (can’t remember her name). . . she is a jewel!
Here’s my Teaser! ~ Wendi

Wendi – I haven’t gotten that far yet! I just read the scene at the gym – hilarious.
kaye – I never used to, but now I’m a multiple-book reader.
Margot – yep, that’s me – can’t stick to just one book.
Darlene – I feel all over the place in real life lately, so the books are an escape.
I love the teasers! Both books really sound intriguing, for their different reasons. My TBR list is getting just way too long, heehee!
Meanwhile, my own teaser is at Bookishgal.
The teaser for The Sand of Paper is quite gripping and I think I’ll add this book to my wishlist based on this alone. Can’t wait for your review.

Beth – ah, me, too. Sigh.
Great teasers! I must admit I haven’t been that interested in reading Everyone Is Beautiful (mostly because I really don’t like the cover), but it sounds interesting, plus I keep hearing great things about it!
