Teaser Tuesdays (Oct.14)

October 14, 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:

    “I told you for later. At this point, you don’t even understand that freedom is an incremental process.“
    ~ p.95, “The Shack” by William P. Young

    LEAVE A COMMENT with either the link to your own Teaser Tuesdays post, or share your two ‘teasers’ in a comment here (if you don’t have a blog). Thanks! :D

      Wow – I guess I’m first today! I read The Shack recently and although I did find the writing just ok, the spiritual side of the story was interesting to me and did provoke a lot of thought. Overall, I believe I liked the book better than you did, but it’s a different kind of book that will get many different reactions.

      Here’s my teasers!

      I’m reading a book about small towns in America called Way off the Road by Bill Geist, a book that our dad told me about and that you read already. Here’s my sentences:

      There’s yam music and yam poetry, too. Queen Paige, in her crown and long, sequined, yam-bedecked train, delivers a dramatic reading of one poem that ends “…as an abundance of sweet potatoes falls to the ground; amazed at his magnificent yield, the farmer calls them his…jewels…of the field.”

      I get the feeling that this small town is well known for its yams and I bet they all overdose on carbs often.
