The Piper's son by Melina Marchetta

    The Piper's Son

Here's the Teaser (page 140): He can't believe these girls. Separated by the Timor Sea and the Indian Ocean and they can still keep each other informed at the speed of lightening.

Here's the summary: 
Melina Marchetta's brilliant, heart-wrenching new novel takes up the story of the group of friends from her best-selling, much-loved book Saving Francesca - only this time it's five years later and Thomas Mackee is the one who needs saving.

Thomas Mackee wants oblivion. Wants to forget parents who leave and friends he used to care about and a string of one-night stands, and favorite uncles being blown to smithereens on their way to work on the other side of the world.

But when his flatmates turn him out of the house, Tom moves in with his single, pregnant aunt, Georgie. And starts working at the Union pub with his former friends. And winds up living with his grieving father again. And remembers how he abandoned Tara Finke two years ago, after his uncle's death.

And in a year when everything is broken, Tom realizes that his family and friends need him to help put the pieces back together as much as he needs them


Have a happy Tuesday! Share your teaser or your link below! Thanks!
