Teaser Tuesday (Sept 22)





Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly meme hosted by MizB at Should be Reading.
• Here is how it works.
• Grab the book you are currently reading (anything at all)
• Open the book to any random page.Share a couple of "teaser" sentences from anywhere on the page.
• Please Make Sure They Are Not Spoilers!(Don't Give Too Much Away) Just enough to pique our interest.
• List the book and author so other participants can get theirhand on it if they choose to read it as well.



Alyssa is reading...



Strange Angels by Lili St. Crow

He shouted it over the wailing of the fire alarm. My entire arm cramped with the need to do something. I pulled the trigger.

Jake is reading...


White Knight - Dresden Files Book 9 by Jim Butcher





"Harry," she asked. "What was that?"
"The plot," I said, "thickening."

and...

It had to been more incendiary than concussive, a big rolling ball of flame that would have shattered windows, and burned things and set things on fire, and pushed a whole lot of air out of the way along with one Harry Dresden, wizard, slightly used.


Gregory is reading...


Gone by Michael Grant


Lana placed her left hand on her broken leg. It wasn't quick. It took a long time and she was terribly weak from thrist and hunger. But she kept her hand there until, an hour later, she did what she had feared she would never go again: Lana Arwen Lazar stood up.

Two vultures sat perched atop the overturned pickup truck. Lana said, "Guess you waited for nothing."

Have a happy reading week!
Alyssa, Jake and Gregory

Juju - Thanks! We enjoy doing them!

Ryan G - We like to do them together and help find the best ones.

Alitareads - Thanks, this one happens to be an extra good bunch!


Jessica - It's a long a grueling process, but worth the whole 27 seconds to find the funniest teasers!

Kristen - Well go out and get them! Quickly there isn't much time!

Krista - I am enjoying Jim Butcher and I highly recommend picking up a book from him.

Eleni - Fine, whatever!!!! Guess your just TOO GOOD to read White Night!!!!

Sarbear - It does look like a tv scene, I was disappointed that the show was canceled though. It was good. If you haven't seen it you can watch full episodes of it on YouTube...for FREE!
