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:
“’So much the better,’ thought Vronsky when he received the news. ‘It was a weakness that would have shattered what strength I have left’.”
~ p.495, “Anna Karenina” by Leo Tolstoy
PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT with either the link to your own Teaser Tuesdays post, or share your two ‘teasers’ in a comment here (if you don’t have a blog). Thanks!

Good teaser, I don’t remember what he’s referring to though, I guess that’s the good thing about forgetting what you’ve read, you can read the same book several times and it still seems new!

The more you tease us, the more likely I am to want to read this book! Nice one.
My teaser is up at The Crowded Leaf.
I have to admit that ‘Anna Karenina’ is not a book I have ever attempted. I am not a huge lover of the classics and would only probably turn to them if there was nothing better to hand.
Your teaser sentences do sound as if Vronsky is very relieved about a situation.
This is my teaser for the week:
