Teaser Tuesdays 10/19/2010



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 Susan Wiggs Fireside. I have never read any books by this author, so I'm don't know if I will enjoy her writing style or not. So far I am....

In the fussy candy-colored mansion, Bo felt like a bull in a china shop. He was surrounded by fragile knick knacks, precariously displayed in rooms that had names that made him think of that old board game--the parlor, the library, the rotunda. The butler did it in the pantry with the meat mallet.....HC pg. 157.

  2. Sounds quaint! Hope the house is less...excitable than the Clue mansion, though.

  9. Excellent teaser! Sounds like a cute book, but those fragile knick-knacks would probably drive me crazy, too.
