Teaser Tuesdays (Sept. 9)

September 9, 2008

TEASER TUESDAYS asks you to:

  • Grab your current read.
  • Let the book fall open to a random page.
  • Share with us two (2) “teaser” sentences from that page, somewhere between lines 7 and 12.
  • You also need to share the title of the book that you’re getting your “teaser” from … that way people can have some great book recommendations if they like the teaser you’ve given!
  • Please avoid spoilers!

    • My 2 “Teaser” Sentences for today:

    “The queen’s rooms at York Place were small and neat and we took only a few days to get unpacked and have everything to rights. The king visited every morning, as usual, and his court came with him, Lord Henry Percy among them.” ~ from “The Other Boleyn Girl” by Philippa Gregory, page 121

      I’ve had The Other Boleyn Girl for ages but still haven’t read it. Sounds good.

      ‘I don’t know,’ Scotty said. I think the Thules were after a power that wasn’t necessarily political.’

      ‘You mean this Cain book? What’d the FBI guys call it?’

      Okay, that is NOT what I meant (accidentally pasted the wrong link which really would be bending the rules).

      This is what I meant.

      Here’s mine–along with a short explanation of Reading ADD–I’d love to know if anyone else suffers this occasional affliction.
