Teaser Tuesdays (June 30)

June 30, 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!

sunnysideblues_carterMy Teasers:

“Nevertheless, she was too tired to scold him. She never would have dreamed that by the end of the flight she’d be the one throwing a first-class fit and facing the authorities.”

~ p.121, “Sunnyside Blues” by Mary Carter

 

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!

    I’m currently reading John Grisham’s Playing for Pizza.
    pg 178:
    “I signed a contract, Rat.”
    “And I got another one for you to sign. A much bigger one, with a real team in a real league with real stadiums that hold real fans. Television. Endorsements. Shoe contracts. Marching bands and cheerleaders.”
