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!
I'm currently reading a supernatural thriller "Water Witch" by Deborah LeBlanc - (courtesy of Anna from FSB Associates).
"Why do you call out bingo letters and numbers?"
"Cause I like how dey sound. You know how when you go to de bingo hall and all de little balls is flyin' around in de machine? Den dat machine sucks out one of dem balls, and a man grabs dat ball, and he yells, B-Two!---N-thirty eight!--O-fifty two! I love when dat happens! It passes me de frissons all over." (Pg 34)
I'm only halfway through so didn't want to randomly open the book past where I haven't read yet. It's getting spookier.
"I turned to my sister, the hush in her voice sending a cold child up my spine. Her face as as white as the curtains on the window. She pointed to the archway that led to the living room--and the dark gray, wavering shadow that floated past the entrance." (pg 85)
Ooh, that sounds like a really good book!
ReplyDeleteHi Robin I'm Robin! So nice to meet you! I just discovered your blog and love it! I have two little ones at home, am an avid reader and writer and plan to homeschool when the kids become the age that we have to start using that word! : ) If you'd like to visit my blog, I've posed a few questions for homeschooling moms, as I'm doing research for an article I'm writing. I would love to have your input! Thanks for your blog! Peace, Robin
