Teaser Tuesday: 4/12/11


Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB ofShould 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!
    Yara's Teaser:

    "Noted," I said. "I'm still doing it"
    "Oh, man, Mom's gonna kill me. I was suppose to talk you out of getting married, not get roped into the wedding," Steven said, getting up.

    Jenny's Teaser:

    “ That’s a good idea,” I said. “Try to get one leaving this week if you can, before things have to opportunity to get messy.” “Messy?” Reece asked. “How messy are we talking here?” It was my turn to shrug. “It depends.” Flo let out a burst of laughter. “Are you kidding me? Messy?. It’s going to get down and dirty. Expect blood and gore and death. Phoenix is always ready to play hardball, and if you’re really not going to give in, that’s what you can expect. “Stop being over dramatic, Flo” I stood up stiffly. I didn’t want her putting ideas in their heads. “Prepare for the worst, and hope for the best.” “ That’s all you have to say?” Flo growled.

    Trudy's Teaser:

    "She shot me in the chest," said Nikki, trying to keep her tone neautral. "Twice."
    "Then it is probably a good thing she is gone," said Astriz with a laugh.

    Ana's Teaser:

    "Lucie, honey?"
    The spell was broken.
    I felt myself falling, and I was back home in an instant, standing next to the kitchen table on legs that held little strength after my journey. As I fell, I knocked my plate off the table, then heard Grammy gasp and come running at the sound.

    1. I love all the teasers. The first one is my favorite though, attracted me with the humor.

      My Teaser is a little different and based on author Olivia Cunning who is over at my blog today giving away free books.

    4. I was definitely teased! More than once. ;) I don't think I've heard of any of those books before! Perhaps I have to look a bit closer at them. :)


      My TT can be found here!
