"Teaser Tuesdays"


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 I am reading this book by Sue Grafton, "Kinsey and Me, Stories" on my Nook. 

"The young woman showed up just before lunch, announcing herself with a tentative tap on my office door. She couldn't have been more than twenty, with a sultry, pornographic face and a tumble of long dark hair." (pg. 72 Nook.)

Terrible way to describe a beautiful girl.... pornographic face?! I'd be insulted.

Yea...I don't like the word pornographic. What a strange way to describe her.

Gigi Ann, your new blog design looks wonderful!

Terrific teaser! But maybe "photogenic" would have been a better choice of words?

The mind boggles trying to imagine what a pornographic face looks like!

Like the retro look style of your blog.

A pornographic body maybe, but ... a pornographic face?? Not so sure about that. However, who can argue with Sue Grafton's success? I'm sure I'd enjoy this book.
My Teaser is from THE STORYTELLER.

I haven't read this author yet, but I heard so many great things. I really need to read this.
