Teaser Tuesdays (Aug.23)

August 23, 2011

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:

“…like the children He so loved to be near, ‘the road less traveled’ for Jesus is always the road to the swing set; He chooses the playful over the grindstone.”

~ p.36, “Sifted” by Rick Lawrence
[I know that's technically only one sentence, but I'm considering it two for today ;) ]


PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT with either the link to your own Teaser Tuesdays post, or share your ‘teasers’ in a comment here (if you don’t have a blog). Thanks!

    I never get the 2 sentence thing and today I was really over it. Sorry but we are having a horrible autism day,(week really), at my house. Please forgive me. I forgot what exactly I was doing in between chasing, comforting and talking down from the ceiling my naked 4 year old. (yes he did a spiderman climb up the closet walls and then got stuck). I will try to follow rules next week.;) I am tired. I really liked your tease. It gave me a breath of fresh air with the day I have been having. Thanks!
