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:
Gathering up her quilt, she leaned forward to rise when a hand slipped firmly over her mouth, warning her, “Sshhhh.”
Her body went limp with fear before rebounding in a wild struggle against her assailant. She thrashed and kicked against the beast whose strong arms lifter her from her seat; suddenly hours of well-rehearsed defensive tactics dispelled the mind-weakening panic and she began to fight back with intent.

Sheila’s Teaser:
I knew it was not Marcus the mermaid wanted. If I jumped in, she would pull me down into the darkness instead of him. If I didn’t, Marcus would die in my place.
The Forbidden Sea by Sheila A. Nielson, page 160
Mindy’s Teaser:
The only shadow in the room originated from the mandatory Nazi flag hanging prominently from the top of the window, its swastika waving lazily in a cool morning breeze and its shadow crawling across the floor like a dark hand reaching for its victim.
Traitor by Sandra Grey, page 23

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
I’m 2/3rds through Lucky Change by Susan Corpany and loving it! Laughed out loud several times. :)
Teaser: “Everybody’s got something they struggle with. There ain’t a ‘Snobs Anonynous’ for people like Alison Arletti, but maybe something humblin’ will happen to her someday.”
