Teaser Tuesdays


MizB of Should Be Reading hosts Teaser Tuesdays. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:

*Grab your current read.
*Open to a random page.
*Share two "teaser" sentences from somewhere on that page.
*BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! You don't want to ruin the book for others.
*Share the title and author too, so other TT participants can add it to their TBR lists if they like your teaser!

Here's my teaser from A Blunt Instrument by Georgette Heyer (p. 30)

"Are you an escapist?" inquired Neville solicitously. "Is that why you write improbable novels? Have you felt the banality of real life to be intolerable?"

  1. I heart Heyer! I might have to start asking people if the banality of real life is intolerable to them! ;)

  2. I love that quote! I've not read any Heyer yet, but did pick up a couple based on how much some other online friends seem to like her. I resemble that remark very much! lol!

    Thanks for stopping by my teaser today!

  3. This guy's a real charmer, isn't he? Haven't read anything by Heyer yet, but she's definitely on my list. Good teaser!

Sorry folks, but I have been getting an incredible amount of spam. I have adjusted my settings and all messages will be moderated from now on. If that does not take care of the problem then I will have to go to the "Prove You're Not a Robot" thing--which I hate as much as you do.

If your name does not appear automatically, please tell me your name in the comment. Otherwise you will just show up as "Unknown." Thanks!
