Teaser Tuesdays (9)

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:
"Dear Stanford Admission Community---
My name is Fisher Bas, and although I have not yet taken my sats---or even entered high school---I would like to once again petition seriously and earnestly to be admitted to your undergraduate program . . .
---College application, third attempt"


Popular Clone, by M. E. Castle
(To be released January 24, 2012)


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