Teaser Tuesdays (Sept.29)

September 29, 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!

deaduntildark_charlaineharris1My Teasers:

“’When’s someone going to kill you, baby?’ She ran a fingernail under my chin, and I knocked her hand away.”

~ p.163, “Dead Until Dark” by Charlaine Harris

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!

((remember, the link for the comments is at the TOP of this post!))

      LOL… I post whenever I can get myself out of bed in the morning! :P I’ve been trying to put up the post the day before and just schedule/set it to be here first thing (that way everyone doesn’t have to wait for me to get up!), but sometimes I forget, or just don’t have time.

      Sorry ’bout that. We’re workin’ on it. ;)
