Teaser Tuesdays

In case you haven't noticed I really like memes!! And I came across this one today from MizB at Should Be Reading. She hosts this meme every Tuesday. If you're a reader then you will certainly enjoy this !!

TEASER TUESDAYS asks you to:
  • Grab your current read.
  • Let the book fall open to a random page.
  • Share with us two (2) “teaser” sentences from that page, somewhere between lines 7 and 12.
  • You also need to share the title of the book that you’re getting your “teaser” from … that way people can have some great book recommendations if they like the teaser you’ve given!
  • Please avoid spoilers!


  • Here are my two teasers:

    What happened next was impossible, yet it happened anyway: an ordinary morning passes. But ordinary was the very thing Edgar was least prepared for.

    **P. 253 The Story of Edgar Sawtelle by David Wroblewski

    6. Staci, you may enjoy getting in on Raidergirl3's "It's Tuesday, Where Are You?" She asks that question every Tues. and people leave comments about where they are in their reading. For instance, I'm in England in the 1920s trying my hand at amateur sleuthing. It's fun to read all the fun places that books are taking people.

      Raidergirl3's blog is:
