Teaser Tuesday: The L Section


Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of A Daily Rhythm.
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 & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!


This week's teaser comes from The L Section by E. M. Lohr:

The L Section is one of what seemed to be an endless number of sections in Purgatory.  Souls are assigned to a specific section based on some evaluation that is done as they arrive.  And the ‘L’ in L Section stood for Liars, Losers, and Leeches.  Not the most glamorous collection of souls, but definitely an interesting bunch.  The ‘L’ may explain why I got assigned to the section but it certainly doesn’t explain why I was made the Administrator.  I think it is my penitence for all my years as a government employee. (p. 1)

This is a very unique take on Purgatory with an incredible twist that keeps you thinking long after you've finished the book.  With lots of humor, quirky characters, and sprinklings of interesting stories of how or why various souls were in Purgatory, this kept me turning the pages to find out how this story was going to end!  And the bonus... my hubby is the author behind the imaginative insanity!

Have a teaser for me?
Leave a link below and enjoy your Tuesday!

  2. The humor certainly stands out in the teaser you shared. I turned a few heads when I laughed out loud as I read it. :-)
