Lost in the shadows of the shelves, I almost fall off the ladder. I am almost exactly halfway up. The floor of the bookstore is far below me, the surface of a planet I've left behind. The tops of the shelves loom high above, and it's dark up there -- the books are packed in close, and they don't let any light through. The air might be thinner, too. I think I see a bat.Also this week is Teaser Tuesdays. Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Open to a random page of your current read and share a teaser sentence from somewhere on that page. BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers.
Here's my teaser:
Is this a book club? How do they join? Do they ever pay?The 24-hour book store is a mystery, but the protagonist's life is also a mess.
Have you read it? What did you think?

It does indeed sound mysterious and I agree with you about the title too.
I heard quite a bit about this book, hope you enjoy it in the end!
I have this book and almost chose it last week as my First Chapter post. I've been meaning to read it forever, but you know how it is--so many books, so little time. Hope you enjoy it! And thanks for stopping by my blog today!
I like that intro! I did see a bat in church Sunday!
Uh-oh, that bat took me by surprise...lol; not a fan of them.
The book, however, sounds really good. Thanks for stopping by my blog.
I've been wanting to read this one and yes -- this intro makes me curious for more. enjoy -- thanks for joining us:)
This one has been on my list for a while.. but I keep hearing mixed reviews! Not sure...
I've heard good things about this book and have it on my Amazon wish list. One of these days I'll read it.
