Teaser Tuesday (May 22)
Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme hosted by MizB at Should Be Reading. Here's how it works..
- Grab your current read
- Open to a random page
- Share two "teaser" sentences from somewhere on that page.
- BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (Make sure what you share does not give too much away! You don't want to ruin the book for others!)
- Share the title & author too so other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!
Here are my teasers...
"Why are you doing this?" Jake bellowed, as he padded across the floor wearing nothing but his bedroom slippers. "If you ask me, darling, it's an exercise in absolute futility and gratuitous decency that will be totally lost on your sister and that pompous, pharisaical lout to whom she happens to be married."
p. 111, Cheat and Charmer by Elizabeth Frank (this is the 3rd and hopefully last teaser from this book. I'd like to finish in the next week)
Gosh that's a lot of big words, and all spoken in nothing but bedroom slippers? Oh My! Added to my TBR ;) Hope you'll stop by my TT
ReplyDeleteThis book is full of big words! I really should have a dictionary on hand while reading.
DeleteI must admit I had to look up on word in this teaser (I can now call people pharisaical instead of hypercritically self riotous) but it defiantly sounds interesting!!
ReplyDeleteI filmed by TT this week! You can check it out here: http://bit.ly/JP2DxD
