Our Best Book for November |
What was your favorite read for November? Now, onto our teasers:
Gerard's:
He'd thought in that moment, two years before, he was a dead man, and that all he had tried to do in his life had been for nothing. A scar in the shape of a star on his forearm where the second bullet had gone in, and the dark purple sliver of tissue at the back of his left hand where he'd caught a knife through his palm.
From page 16 of Sometimes the Wolf by Urban Waite. (Just finished this last week but it's so good, I wanted to do a teaser from it-- click link to see my review)
It scared me, and must have scared my mother, because this time the dishes under the cloud of suds did more than rattle. They crashed.From page 65 of Revival by Stephen King.
Karen's:
Jake had been waiting for exactly this kind of confirmation. He'd played a hunch, taken a chance, and in his heart of hearts felt it had been a good decision.From page 18 of Call Me Mrs. Miracle by Debbie Macomber.
"They killed your mother, Beth!" he hollered over the noise. "Autonuke! Now!"From page 11 of One Kick by Chelsea Cain.
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 pick two sentences from the book you are reading.
Happy Reading!
Nice teasers, both of you! What do you think of Call Me Mrs. Miracle so far, Karen? I thought it was such a sweet and warm Christmas story :)
ReplyDeleteMy teaser this week is from Grendel.
Happy reading!
The one from Sometimes a Wolf caught my eye. My teaser.
ReplyDeleteGreat teasers! I have heard good things about Revival. Here is my teaser: http://bookbinges.blogspot.it/2014/12/teaser-tuesday.html
ReplyDeleteI've been always interested in Stephen King's works, but never tried one. I think I should check this one out. Thanks for sharing! Hope both of you have a good week.
ReplyDeleteI've really been hearing a lot about Revival lately. My TT this week: http://wp.me/pZnGI-gb
ReplyDeleteOne Kick is on my stacks and Sometimes the Wolf will be soon. I am looking forward to Belzhar.
ReplyDeleteAnother good set of books from you although I'm most tempted by Call Me Mrs Miracle. I had some great reads in November, I think my favourite was The Perfect Mother. Thanks for visiting my TT https://cleopatralovesbooks.wordpress.com/2014/12/02/teaser-tuesday-december-2/
ReplyDeleteCall Me Mrs. Miracle was good, and I am intrigued by . I have a Christmas romance this week: The Heart of Christmas
ReplyDeleteGreat Teasers! I like Stephen King's description: "dishes under the cloud of suds" but Debbie Macomber's book appealed to me most.
ReplyDeleteMy Tuesday post features TRAIL MIX.
All great teasers and going to check them out. King's was especially chilling. Can't wait to get Revival.
ReplyDeleteHere's my TT - http://fuonlyknew.com/2014/12/02/teaser-tuesdays-90-come-along-with-me/
Revival and One Kick piqued me!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite for November was The Extraordinary Journey of the Fakir Who Got Trapped in an Ikea Wardrobe by Romain Puértolas. It's epic!
Great teasers! Although, Call Me Mrs. Miracle has snagged my attention most :) Happy reading!
