"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 the book, "Family Tree" by Barbara Delinsky, one of my favorite authors. This book  has been on my TBR pile for a year or more.  I don't know why I have put off reading it for so long. It is a very interesting book, the kind of book that once you start to read it, you have trouble putting it down. Having a visit by Insomnia Night last night, I was able to read until almost 4 o'clock this morning. I'm glad the book was a page turner, it made the night fly by.

Dana was on the patio when Hugh returned. She watched him while he stood at the carriage studying Lizzie. "When you look at her like that, what are you thinking?" she finally asked.... page 205.

    Wonderful teaser! I have this one buried in my TBR mountain somewhere. I love this cover. Every time I see it, a warm feeling comes over me. So sweet.

    Here is mine:

    This sounds so good. I've had it on my TBR for a long time too. I'm not sure why I haven't read it yet. I do love Barbara Delinsky's books.
