Teaser Tuesdays (Feb 23)

February 23rd, 2010


Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of 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 this week are from The Wives of Henry Oades by Johanna Moran…


‘She teetered, letting out a ragged cry. The brute ahead turned and glared. How hateful, how menacing his look. As though he were the one so horribly wronged. His wretched animosity was unfathomable’. (page 45, ARC copy, final printed copy may be different)

I’m reading this for a blog tour with TLC Book Tours. My review will be up March 2. I’m about 50 pages in and already I’m having trouble putting this one down. It’s very good and the cover is just gorgeous! How about you? Do you have any teasers to share today?
