Teaser Tuesday (December 13, 2016)

Teaser Tuesday is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Books and a Beat. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:
• Grab your current read
• Open to a rand
om 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!

Here is my teaser:
"As soon as I was born, the nurses whisked me away from the delivery room to explore a matter that was later described on an anonymous medical report only as a slight physical abnormality.  It wasn't long before the devout gathered in the light from the hospital windows, carrying candles and singing hymns in praise and fear.  All because when I was born, I opened my eyes then unfolded the pair of speckled wings that wrapped around me like a feathery cocoon."
The Strange and Beautiful Sorrows of Ava Lavender by Leslye Walton
