Teaser Tuesdays (Oct 20)

October 20th, 2009


Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:

  • Grab your current read.
  • Open to a random 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!

My teasers for today are from The Wife’s Tale by Lori Lansens…

  • ‘Now, gazing into the brooding night past the trees and beyond Mr. Barkley’s grave, Mary was sorry to see that there were no lights in the neighbours’ houses to either side. It made her feel less lonely when she could observe other people’s quietly desperate lives.’ (pg 10)

I’m just starting to read this now so it’ll be a bit before I have a review ready but it sounds very promising and I’m looking forward to delving into it. So, what about you? What are your teasers today? Leave me a comment with your teasers or a link to your post.
