Teaser Tuesdays (Dec. 28)

December 28, 2010

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!

 


My Teasers:

You can see the charm of Edward and all he is for Bella. Imagine having that type of relationship connection in your life.”

~ p. 27, “Escaping the Vampire” by Kimberly Powers 
 

 


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!

  1. Great teaser! Sounds great. My TT is at Coffee Table Press

  2. Here’s my final teaser for 2010!
    See you in 2011!

  3. Interesting teaser. All I could picture in my mind was Robert Pattinson and my first thought was “Oh gosh no!” LOL You can find my teaser at The Bookish Snob

  4. My TT is posted here.

  5. Hmm … my link didn’t seem to work. Try this.

  6. How interesting…I’ve never heard of this book. Wonder why it’s talking about Edward and Bella?

    Here’s my teaser.

    • It’s based loosely off of the “Twilight” series… It shows that, when reading the series, many girls long for a real-life “hero” like ‘Edward’ to come sweep them off their feet — and that they can have it, too … God is that hero. :)

  7. Great teaser!

    My teaser is here Manga Maniac Cafe

  8. Great teaser! Here’s mine this week.

  9. ah… a vampire teaser.

    mine is Teaser Tuesday Special – Top 5 of 2010 Teasers: http://t.co/DCSSvKa

  10. Sounds great! Here’s my Teaser Tuesday if you’d like to check it out.

    Brush Up On Your Reading

  11. Apparently vampires have magnetic personalities!

    My teaser is from a novel with a somewhat exaggerated/satiric look at the American Dream:

  12. I’ve escaped the vampire so well I’ve never even touched a copy of Twilight!

    My teaser is here.

  13. Your teaser lines were very misleading. When I found the full book synopsis, it was nothing like I had imagined it would be, you had me fooled.

    The book sounds very intriguing and has some great reviews, so I hope that you enjoy it.

    My teaser lines for this week are here….

    Happy New Year

    • Ah, but my “teaser” did its job, in that it made you go look up more information about the book! LOL. ;)

  14. This one sounds intriguing…I’m guessing that it examines the fascination girls have for Edward.

    Here’s mine:

    http://rainysnowday.wordpress.com/2010/12/28/teaser-tuesdays-dec-28/

  15. I love anything that has Edward and Bella in it. Great pick! Here is mine:

    http://www.bookscompleteme.com/2010/12/teaser-tuesday_28.html

  16. Was really wondering how Edward & Bella came into play here. But then I read the synopsis and understood it better. My teaser is here.

  17. That sounds like an interesting book! I do sometimes wonder why vampires have such appeal. I have two teasers this week. My YA teaser is from Anna and the French Kiss and my adult teaser is from The Secret History of the Pink Carnation. I guess I was in a mood for romance. Happy reading!

  18. Excellent teaser! I think I need to check it out, sounds almost like an analysis of Twilight.

    My teaser today is from Manifest(Mystyx #1) by Artist Arthur.

  19. Your teasers are very interesting! :)
    My teasers:
    The Mockingbirds by Daisy Whitney
    http://the-soul-sisters.blogspot.com/2010/12/teaser-tuesday-december-28.html

  20. Great teaser! I thought it was Twilight until I saw the author.
    Here’s my teaser
    http://seducedbyyarn.blogspot.com/2010/12/teaser-tuesdays_28.html
    (another mystery)

  21. Hmmm, there’s something about the mention of Edward and Bella in one sentence that just throws me off. I do love vampires though. LOL, still, great teaser!

    My teaser for this week is HERE. It’s from Kelly Creagh’s Nevermore!

  22. Robin Hillyer Miles permalink

    My teaser is here: http://skirt.com/rhillyer/blog/teaser-tuesday

    Here’s my teaser:
    http://jlshall.blogspot.com/2010/12/teaser-tuesdays-back-when-we-were.html

  26. Hahaha I love that teaser…mostly because I hate Twilight :)

    Here’s mine! http://www.iswimforoceans.com/2010/12/tuesday-teaserteaser-tuesday-39.html

  27. Am I the only person in the world who doesn’t find Edward Cullen all that charming? Moderately charming, sure, but creepy. *shiver*

    Anyhoo, I have my teaser up early today: Teaser Tuesdays: Can You Fit a Book Down Your Pants?

  28. Here’s my teaser for this week: http://www.rulethewaves.net/blog/?p=1925

  29. Interesting teaser.

    Mine is up at Wakela’s World

    • I really enjoyed this book; Deaver has so many twists and turns in his novels and I never figure out the ending(s) until the very last paragraph (and then of course I’ve not figured it out . . . Deaver has fleshed it out).

  30. Interesting book1 Here’s my TT.

  31. http://hopeseguin2010.wordpress.com/2010/12/28/teaser-tuesday-25/

    on the book jacket: “A first-rate piece of storytelling . . .”

  32. That definitely sounds interesting! Great teaser!

    Here’s mine:
    http://www.betweenthecoversblog.net/2010/12/review-beautiful-darkness-by-kami.html

  33. After reading more about the book, I think it definitely holds a lot of truth, for being loved wholly and completely IS every teenage girl’s dream. Thanks for the teaser! Here’s mine: http://jewelknits.blogspot.com/2010/12/teaser-tuesdays-december-28-2010.html

  34. My TT this week is from Angel Harp by Michael Phillips

    Now on my way to check out others!!

  38. Ruby permalink

    Interesting teaser! Though I like Jacob more. And I think that the only thing that makes Edward so charming is the whole vampire thing.

  46. interesting . . . a book about having a relationship like Bella and Edward. Kaye—the road goes ever ever on

  47. It had to happen –a self-help book with a vampire metaphor. It’s come to that.

    My teaser is from The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society. I’m always a little bit behind on popular books. It is a terrific — now I understand all the fuss.

  48. Herer is my TT

  52. My teaser is from Iron Fey #1, The Iron King. HERE

  53. I love Edward and Bella, but it sounds like an interesting book nonetheless.

    My teaser is here from Julie Kagawa’s The Iron Queen.

  54. Great teaser! You can find mine here.

  55. It would be pretty amazing to have a relationship like Edward and Bella’s–although I wouldn’t want to my existence to be so entirely dependent on one person. Interesting teaser!

    My teaser is from Reckless by Cornelia Funke.

  56. Fantastic teaser! I’ve not read this, either :)
