4 Tuesday Teasers Today


Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should  Be Reading. Anyone can play along, so I thought  I  would play for fun! Just do the following
  • Grab your current read
  • Open to a random page (well, we cheat and choose specific ones)
  • 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 and author, too, so that other TT participants can  add the book to their TBR  Lists  if they  like your teaser.   

Karen's:
And now Allison had been in an accident, and a child was dead.  It didn't seem possible.
From page 57 of Bird in Hand by Christina Baker Kline.

As they moved, they would go in any one of the four directions the creatures faced;The wheels did not turn about as the the creatures went. Their rims were high and awesome, and all four rims were full of eyes all around.
From Ezekiel 1:17 (the NIV Study Bible)

Gerard's:
Evidence was destroyed, perjury suborned, and justice defiled. But in this case I wasn't the defense attorney, trying to get his client "off." Nor was I the prosecutor, pursuing justice for the victim.
From page XV of the Prologue of Run, Brother, Run--A Memoir of a Murder in My Family by David Berg.  (My review will be posted tomorrow.)


There wasn't much Sandy could do except go to work every morning and wait for the interminable days and weeks to pass.  Eventually, she would find out how much of her life would be ruined because she had been friendly to a whale.
From page 104 of The Lost Whale by Michael Parfit and Suzanne Chisholm.


Happy Reading!

  5. Well, I didn't post any on my blog, but here is a teaser from what I'm reading---

    "The bugle's shrill, harsh, blast sounded the charge upon the crisp morning air, and the long, wild yell, the Ninth led the horde of charging Texans into Holly Springs, straight toward the railroad depot."
