This book so far is very enjoyable, not least because it is set in Salzburg and features musicians rather than the usual rich society people who inhabit Regency England, and who proliferate the pages of historical romance normally.
Mathilda dropped to the ground, her knees sinking into the topmost layer of fresh snow. The rough edges of marble lightly scored the pads of her fingers as she traced his name. She had imagined remorseful tears flowing freely, but none came.Teaser Tuesday is hosted by Miz B at Should Be Reading. Head on over to find out all about it, and how to join in!
Hard to tell if she loved him or not.
ReplyDeleteYes, eBooks don't fall open at a random page.
Intriguing! Love the cover of this book!
ReplyDeleteOoooh! I like that. The cover is so pretty too.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know if posting a random page of an ebook would work either. I have yet to get my reader, congrats on yours :)
Thank you for stopping by my blog :)
Since I got my ereader I boookmark passages that I love and choose the best one from a book for a teaser. It works well - I couldn't think of another way to do it.
ReplyDeleteThe other thing would be to stop doing teasers and start the First Line Friday meme.
Your book sounds terrific.
My teaser is here: Hott Books
Seems like a nice book. And yes the book cover is really pretty!! :) nice nice.
ReplyDeleteI like the cover, but I don't care much for romance . . . I may give this one a pass, but I like the teaser. Thanks for visiting my TT!! :D
ReplyDeleteGreat teaser...sounds like an interesting book - I'm going to have to check it out.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my blog!
oh that makes me sad, therefore it's a good teaser^^
ReplyDeletethx for stopping by and for the lovely comment =)
xoxo
Ohhhh :( I love the images that came to me as I read that. THanks for sharing
ReplyDeleteCome see what Teaser I chose
Wow, that is a powerful passage...thanks for visiting my blog.
ReplyDeleteI don't know if I'll ever be convinced to buy an e-reader. I like curling up with a book!
But anything is possible....
What a moving teaser! Thanks for sharing it!
ReplyDeleteoh sad :( Kaye-the road goes ever ever on
ReplyDeleteWhat a poignant scene. Sounds like a good romance!
ReplyDeleteSo sad!
ReplyDeleteMy teaser is up at Find the Time to Read
Nope, no random pages with an e-reader. Good teaser.
ReplyDeleteGreat teaser! I downloaded this one, too, from NetGalley. I'll have to bump it up on my TBR list! Here's my teaser from Hunger.
ReplyDeleteSounds intriguing! And the cover is so pretty!
ReplyDeleteHere's how I get random books on my e-reader :)
ReplyDeleteFirst you use the 'Go To' feature, and then type in any number u currently have an affection for (say, 1330) and then pick something off that page.
If you are reading a html book, or something where a spacebar tap gets the next page, I just randomly hold the spacebar for a few seconds and then read whatever is on that page!
Thanks for visiting e-Volving Books
Sounds like a sad scene. Thanks for stopping by my blog!
ReplyDeleteThat's a really powerful teaser. I've never read this book, but I think I know what she means. She expected to cry, to feel something, but the tears just wouldn't come. She WANTED to cry at that moment, whether the tears would be true or fake. Maybe she's just already numb and can't make the tears flow. It's like when you want to cry but just can't. You'll have to let us know!
ReplyDeleteExcellent teaser. Such a vivid scene outlined in so few words.
ReplyDeleteMy teaser is here.
Visiting a grave?
ReplyDeleteGreat teaser - really creates an image in your mind.
ReplyDeleteGreat teaser. Congrats on the ereader. Carina Press have some awesome books. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting me.
Ohhhh this so sounds like the type of book I need to get my hands on next.....
ReplyDeleteThanks for coming by Aisle B... I see we share a passion for romance :)
great teaser, I'm intrigued although I'm not sure this is my kind of read
ReplyDeleteoooh beautiful teaser! i would love to read this one too but don't have an ereader and it's not in print yet :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, just came over to see your teaser. I like it!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed that teaser and the cover of the book is lovely.
ReplyDeleteThat teaser was great! I hope that you are enjoying your book!
ReplyDeleteThanks for checking out my teaser!
Claire :)
Carrie, I hope it comes out in print soon so you can read it, as so far it is very good.
ReplyDeleteAisle B, a passion for reading full stop I think, but yes, I do enjoy a good romance especially.
Shelley, I haven't really had too much of a look at the other books from Carina, but if this is the quality of the books that they have, then I will definitely be reading more!
Thanks for the tips Deepali!
Laurel, I am surprised myself, but it seems to be easier to curl up, especially in cold weather. For example, if you are reading a book you hand that you hold the book in gets cold, but so does the hand that you turn the pages with. With this e-reader I can use the same hand to do both.
Gina, I was intending to do highlight passages as I go through. Will have to do that with my next book that I read on the ereader.
Thanks everyone for stopping by!
I hadn't considered that with e-books- how are you enjoying using it?
ReplyDeleteThat teaser sounds so sad, hope things get better for the character.
