"Pretty crappy security for a major medical facility."
"Pretty crappy security for a petting zoo." I say.
"I resent that." The voice comes from behind us, and both Hana and I jump...
The world seems to freeze for an instant. A boy is standing behind us, arms crossed, head cocked to the side...
It's him. the boy from yesterday, from the observation deck. 
The Invalid." Kindle pg 57-58


Goodreads.com Info: 
Before scientists found the cure, people thought love was a good thing. They didn’t understand that once love -- the deliria -- blooms in your blood, there is no escaping its hold. Things are different now. Scientists are able to eradicate love, and the government demands that all citizens receive the cure upon turning eighteen. Lena Holoway has always looked forward to the day when she’ll be cured. A life without love is a life without pain: safe, measured, predictable, and happy.

But with ninety-five days left until her treatment, Lena does the unthinkable: She falls in love.

    Nice teaser. I read the book but don't remember this part. My teasers are for Chasing the Skip by Janci Patterson and The Birthday Scandal by Leigh Michaels. Happy reading!

    This sounds like a book I'd really enjoy. Great teaser! I love the header picture on your blog too. Makes me want to climb a mountain (or at least a hill).
    My teaser is from CONFESSIONS OF A CORPORATE SLUT.
