Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly meme hosted by Miz B at  ShouldBeReading  where you randomly take two lines from your current read (spoiler-free please) and highlight them in a post. This week we have one YA and one adult. Our first tease is from Freshman Year and Other Unnatural Disasters by Meredith Zeitlin.

Is that how I looked when I was with Keith?" Blurb: Kelsey Finkelstein is fourteen and FRUSTRATED. Every time she tries to live up to her awesome potential, her plans are foiled – by her impossible parents, her annoying little sister, and life in general.

Enlisting the help of her three best friends — sweet and quiet Em, theatrical Cass, and wild JoJo — Kelsey gets ready to rebr...

But when her curiosity leads her to an unusual gypsy tent, she exits . . . right into Renaissance Firenze. Thrust into the sixteenth century armed with only a backpack full of contraband future items, Cat joins up with her ancestors, the sweet Alessandra and protective Cipriano, and soon falls for the gorgeous aspiring artist Lorenzo. But when the much-older Niccolo starts sniffing around, Cat realizes that an unwanted birthday party is nothing compared to an unwanted suitor full of creeptastic amore. Can she find her way back to modern times before her Italian advent...
