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!
Shanda’s Teaser:
Hannah leaned her head against the wall as if having heard a death sentence pronounced on her and Beatrice. She saw the young, blond doctor returning from his errands. As soon as he crossed the threshold, she pounced on him. ” Typhoid fever? Is it true?”
Twilight’s Last Gleaming by L.C. Lewis, page 64
Sheila’s Teaser:
She feared that she had fallen in love with him, which was senseless beyond belief, but try as she might, she didn’t seem to be able to tell her heart to keep it’s distance.
Journey of Honor by Jaclyn M. Hawkes, page 63
Mindy’s Teaser:
Sadie winced as she heard it land, all the items inside crashing into each other. Now, instead of a meticulously organized arrangement, her purse would be a mess. So far things were off to a fabulous start.
Key Lime Pie by Josi S. Kilpack, page 163
Does anyone else think it’s interesting that the page numbers we found our teaser quotes on were 64, 63, & 163?

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
I’m about to start The Legend of Shannonderry by Carol Warburton. From page 66: “The crackle of the peat fire settled into the silence that followed. Aware of her father’s temper, Gwyneth shrank from hearing the rest of the story. “Did . . . did Rory and Connor get safely away?” she asked after a long moment.
I loved The Legend of Shannonderry (cute Irish men, horses, romance- what more could you ask for?). Would love to know what you thought of it. Thanks for sharing the teaser. :)
I finally made it over here to see who won…and it was me?! Wow!
Great Teasers. I’ll have to remember to join this meme.
