Teaser Tuesday: In Too Deep by Amanda Grace


Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. 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!
In Too DeepSam is in love with her best friend Nick, but she can’t seem to tell him. So she decides to flirt with golden-boy Carter Wellesley, hoping Nick will see it and finally realize his true feelings for her. 
On Monday, everyone at school is saying that Carter raped Sam. He didn’t, but Sam can’t find the words to tell the truth. Worst of all, she’s afraid she’ll lose Nick if he finds out what really happened.
As graduation approaches, Sam discovers that living the lie isn’t as easy as her new friends make it sound—and telling the truth might be even worse.



My Teaser:
"'That is not a skirt. That is a Band-Aid.'
I snort. 'You know as well as I do that Carter won't take a second look at me if I'm dressed the same as always.'
I think he flinches when I say 'Carter.' I also think I've imagined it. This is the game in my head every time I'm around Nick these days. The 'does he, doesn't he' game. I hate it. And tonight it ends."
Pg. 5 

I'm not very far in this book but it is very raw and emotional so far. I'm really enjoying it and it is not too long. What do you think of the teaser?
