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:
“Finding what you’re yearning for often begins by paying attention to what you’re muttering under your breath. When you hear yourself saying, ‘All I want is…‘ or, ‘If only I could just…’ it’s a sign that you’re feeling frustrated, even desperate.”
~ p. 17, “The Practical Dreamer’s Handbook” by Paul & Sarah Edwards
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 with truth in it
Mine is from a great book by J.R.R Tolkien http://t.co/mw9zXOx
Hi MizB,
I think that I could really benefit from reading your chosen book. Frustrated and desparate, are the two words that leapt off the page and as for the mutterings under the breath…..!!!
This is my teaser for the week, taken from ‘Evil Under The Sun’ by Agatha Christie
http://www.fiction-books.biz/category/my-latest-news-and-musings/teaser-tuesday-my-latest-news-and-musings/
Here is my teaser this week.
A nice teaser, but isn’t “practical dreamer” an oxymoron?
My post: The Christmas Chronicles
Oh. So that’s what’s going on.
Mine is here

My very first Teaser Tuesday post: http://readinglassie.blogspot.com/2010/11/teaser-tuesdays-saving-ceecee-honeycutt.html
Oh dear – I think I’m frustrated – I often mutter those things under my breath
OK – I know I am frustrated and desperate!!!!

Very true! Great teaser. Here’s mine this week:
http://cornucopiaofreviews.blogspot.com/2010/11/teaser-tuesday-november-30.html

Martha saw it all clear in that moment: this was the instant her place in the family would be decided. If she lost her footing at the outset, she would forever be dealt with as no more than a servant.
Awesome teaser!
