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:
“The sounds were retreating, and Anne distinguished no more. Her own emotions still kept her fixed.”
~ p.65, “Persuasion” by Jane Austen
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!

Persuasion is my very favorite Austen novel. I love that it takes place after the heroine has lost her bloom — there’s such a hopefulness to that.
Here’s my teaser of Cormac McCarthy’s The Road.
July 7, 2009 at 9:11 pm
Here is my teaser!
July 7, 2009 at 9:15 pm
Ooh, I can’t wait to read The Road!

Me, too. Not sure how I haven’t read any Austen, yet, but I think I might start with Persuasion.
July 7, 2009 at 10:06 pm
That’s one of Austen’s books I don’t think I’ve read yet. Maybe I should fill that gap, eh?
Meanwhile, my own teaser is at Bookishgal
