Teaser Tuesdays (May 12)

May 12, 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! ;)

My Teasers:

“You can pay now or you can pay later, but at some point we all reap the harvest of the choices we’ve made. We can’t simply wish our lives were different; we have to press through the laziness, fleshly desires, and bad attitudes and refuse to give up on the discipline that will yield good fruit later on.”

~ p.68, “Never Give Up” by Joyce Meyer

 

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

  6. Well, that sounds very true, but also annoyingly logical! Sounds like a good book, though. My teasers are not that helpful, I’m afraid:
