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:
“Instead, focus on spiritual health. If you only had one month left before your physical body collapsed, wouldn’t you want the part of you that’s going to live forever to be as healthy as possible?”
~ p. 27, “One Month to Live” by Kerry & Chris Shook
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!

http://debsbookbag.blogspot.com/2010/08/teaser-tuesday-33.html
I want to LIVE! If that’s permissible but on a serious note, spiritual health is very important and affects us in ways beyond our own understanding. Being positive and laughing helps big TIME. Great teaser and posted mine on Aisle B from The Forgotten Garden:

Have a great read

Aisle B
Thought provoking and the books sounds difficult to read.

My Teaser: http://www.rundpinne.com/2010/08/teaser-tuesdays-i-curse-the-river-of-time.html
This is thought-provoking and I agree I would want my spiritial side to be healthy. My teaser is from Hippie Chick by Joseph Momminger.
Interesting and awfully spiritual teaser. Here’s mine: http://beltwayliterature.wordpress.com/2010/08/30/teaser-tuesday-republic/
I dunno yes…. but no!!! What if I don’t live then I didnt enjoy my life as much!! But then I think of something like “Eat to sustain not to entertain.” soo I dunno

What a scary thought, to have only a month left and to know it too…
Here‘s ours for this week!
Of course I would want it to be as healthy as possible.
Mine is here
I don’t like that thought. I’d be tempted to let everything go west, do whatever I wanted, tell people exactly what I thought of them and basically create merry hell…but, what if I didn’t die at the end of that. I would have upset everyone and totally wrecked every relationship I’d previously worked so hard to build. Personally, I don’t think it’d be a good idea to know how long I have to go.
Anyway, after that rant, here’s my teaser…
http://bit.ly/9jMPXP
That is such a wonderful teaser! A lot of us seem to forget that part of us. I know I tend to focus on my physical health! Thank you so much for the reminder
Here’s my teaser.

That doesn’t sound like a book for me.
Here’s mine:
http://mcpigpearls.blogspot.com/2010/08/teaser-tuesdays-shadow-queen.html
Not my kind of read really.
My teaser this week is quite action packed. It’s from Frostbitten by Kelly Armstrong.
It has been a while But here’s mine! I’m vlogging this time
Here’s mine:
http://ifyoucanreadthis.wordpress.com/2010/08/31/teaser-tuesday-29/
That sounds way too depressing for me.

That’s a good question
Here’s my teaser: http://my-book-obsession.blogspot.com/2010/08/teaser-tuesdays-28.html
Good point.
My teaser is from The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams.
That’s a thought-provoking teaser.
Here’s mine from Here Burns My Candle.
Interesting thought, if a little medieval. Definitely not a book I could read, though.
Here’s my teaser, also about death but not so depressing:
http://jlshall.blogspot.com/2010/08/teaser-tuesdays-juliet.html
This isn’t supposed to be a depressing book, though — I’m not really far into it, but it’s supposed to be about living life to the fullest… about making the most of your time alive, ’cause all of us will die, eventually.
Watch for my review ~ probably in about a week.
~MizB
Interesting… don’t know if I agree, but interesting
here’s mine
http://beachreader48.blogspot.com/2010/08/teaser-tuesdays_31.html

My teaser:
http://mustreadfaster.blogspot.com/2010/08/tuesday-teasers_31.html
We should focus on our spiritual health early in our life to have the best life God wants for us–not wait until a month before we die.
Here’s our teasers: http://ourstack.blogspot.com/2010/08/teaser-tuesday-3-books.html
Very true, but a lot of people live their lives just “going through the motions”… they don’t focus on their spiritual health, etc. So, this book is (supposedly) a good reminder to put our focus back where it belongs — on living the abundant life God’s promised us!
~MizB
Great advice. Here is my TT.
