Teaser Tuesdays (8)

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!


Here's mine:


"But, Dad, I . . . well, I'm a lot younger than you. I don't want to hurt you."
Aron chuckled. "I think I might surprise you."


p 31, Insight (Beholders, #1) by Terron James




Leave a post with a link to your TT, or, if you don't have a blog, post your teaser right in the comments!

    "And stop hanging on that door," she admonished absently. "It'll break again and I'm tired of having Chester fix he refrigerator. The last time he fixed it, it sang 'I'm a Little Teapot' every time I opened it. It drove me insane."

    I agree with Tribute Books Mama. It's sounds like he's trying to make a point and she's being thoughtful. I'm curious enough to check it out.
