Gerard's:
I was shot or tried to harm myself. My ear is gone.From page 16 of Remember Mia by Alexandra Burt.
Better than cancer or Alzheimer's, that prime horror of anyone who has spent his life making a living by his wits. Of course there would be headlines, and I'd gotten plenty of those even before that damned Time story . . . but if he pulls the trigger, I won't have to read them.
From page 27 of Finders Keepers by Stephen King.
Karen's:
"Did you hear that?" I asked Regan.
"She didn't," the dog assured me, standing now, his tail wagging like a hairy propeller.From page 5 of What the Dog Said by Randi Reisfeld.
I'd hardly nodded before he gave the sled a huge push. To say that we flew down the hill on that old coffee table balanced on skis, would be an understatement.From page 68 (Loc. 689 on Kindle) of Lost No More by Cee Cee James.
We are dependent on God and dependent on one another. I just couldn't see it until I was blind.From page 14 of Hope Unseen--The Story of the U.S. Army's First blind Active-Duty Officer by Captain Scotty Smiley with Doug Crandall.
Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of A Daily Rhythm. Anyone can play along, so I thought I would play for fun! Just pick two sentences from the book you are reading.
Happy Reading!
the teaser from What the Dog said made me laugh! I don't read King ... I just don't like spooky.
ReplyDeleteI don't like Stephen King books either but my husband loves his books! "What the Dog Said" is a really good story about a girl whose father was killed and how she got a shelter dog to train to be a service dog for handicapped kid.
DeleteThose sound great!
ReplyDeleteMy teaser this week is from Isaac Asimov http://wp.me/p3Nz8P-su
What a great variety of teasers this week. I'm teasing Ever After by Jude Deveraux on my adult blog this week. It's a romance with ghosts. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteI love Stephen Kin and spooky. Nice teaser.

Excellent teasers! I'm very curious about that "coffee table balanced on skis" in the Cee Cee James book. Might have to look into that one. Thanks for sharing, and happy reading this week!
ReplyDeleteAll great teasers!
