Tuesday Teaser is a weekly bookish meme (rhymes with “cream"), hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. (I’ve borrowed it from LDS Women’s Book Review.) Anyone can play along! Just do the following:
- Grab your current read
- Open to a random page
- Share at least 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!
I'm adapting the rules slightly. I'll be quoting some random lines from the last chapter I read before I post a teaser. I'm a slow reader, so you may get multiple teasers per book from me. Here's a teaser from Dead Running by Cami Checketts:
"So I get to call you slow-poke and lazy when?"
"When you're actually running faster than me."
Tasha scowled, checked her pace and my treadmill display, then sped up to 6.8. "Turtle."
I rolled my eyes, but hit the speed button until it was at 7.0
Tasha chuckled and increased her pace to 7.2. "Snail."
"Stop it, you idiot. I'm not warm yet."
Dead Running, p 53
If you'd like to share a teaser from a book you're currently reading, I'd love you to do so in the comment section. And you don't even have to share it on a Tuesday! Be sure to include the title, author, and page number in case others would like to check out the book you're reading.
