Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. You know the rules: grab your current read, open to a random page and share a two sentence teaser with us (no spoilers!). Be sure to tell us about the book, so we can add it to our TBR list!

Today, I’ve got a Teaser from a book I just received this week. Strange Bird by Anna Jansson. It’s the story of a bird flu pandemic and the panic it causes among the inhabitants of a small island:

“When Asa ended the call she felt relieved, relieved and almost euphoric that Malin Berg managed to die without seeing a single person. The thought would have been downright indecent if the circumstances were normal, she realized immediately, but in this situation it was better that one person was dead than that a hundred people had been infected.”
