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!
This week my teaser comes from page 101 of Dreamfever by Karen Marie Moning. I am just starting this book tonight, so hopefully it will be good.Because I like the sentiment I've used the whole paragraph and not just two sentences.
There are moments in my life when I feel like I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be, doing exacty what I'm supposed to do. I pay attention to them. They're my cosmic landmarks, letting me know I'm on the right path. Now that I'm older and can look back and see where I missed a turn here and there, and know the price I paid for those oversights, I try to look sharper at the present.
I like the prose. Very poetic.

we'd probably all be better off if we paid better attention to those cosmic landmarks in our lives. nice teaser. If you want to wander down my road I’m home.
ReplyDeleteGreat teaser Marg, it has encouraged me to read the book. My teaser is from Personal Effects Dark Art by J.C. Hutchins and Jordan Weisman:
ReplyDeleteI knew this moment. I hated this moment. I’ve lived this moment a dozen times in the past decade, in jobs, relationships, art projects, pet projects. This is how I am wired. I fall in love with things, projects, people, even if just a little it. I have to, in order to help them. To do anything less would e…well…I wouldn’t know how. Creativefishi from twitter
This is fun!
ReplyDelete"The wind picked up, made her shudder as it whipped around them, as wild and fierce as the attraction she couldn't fight. It lashed the rain against her, against him, as it streamed down their bodies."
Tie Me Down by Tracy Wolff, page 56.
I agree! That is a great sentiment. You can see my teaser at:

Great teaser, reminds me to stop and pay attention.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by Calico Contemplations.
I agree - love that sentiment!
ReplyDeleteInsightful teaser. Yet another series I've been meaning to start on but I keep forgetting :-)
ReplyDeleteI read “Dreamfever” a few weeks ago. I liked it better than the last book. But the story has a strange pace. Nothing important is happening for weeks and then everything starts happening and going wrong at the end.
ReplyDeleteAnd to think we have to wait so long for the next book! Grrrr…!
Good teaser. I hope you enjoy the book.
