Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly meme hosted by MizB at Should Be Reading.
Grab the book you are currently reading and randomly post a couple sentences.
I haven't done one of these in a while. Hope you enjoy the paragraph I've selected! I was going to feature the beginning, but everyone has read it already. ;)

I know what the green and blue tablets do. I don't know anyone who knows for certain what the red tablet does. There have been rumours about it for years.
I climb into bed and push away thoughts of the red tablet. For the first time in my life, I'm allowed to dream of Xander.
