Teaser Tuesdays (May 5)

May 5, 2009

teasertuesdays31 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! ;)

cityofthedead_higleyMy Teasers:

“I looked over my shoulder to ensure the other two sculptors were busy at their work, and I pulled the strap of my pouch over my neck. ‘I have something I’d like you to see.’”

~ p.108, “City of the Dead” by T. L. Higley

 

PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT with either the link to your own Teaser Tuesdays post, or share your 2 ‘teasers’ in a comment here (if you don’t have a blog). Thanks! :D

PS… Happy Cinco de Mayo! ;)
