Teaser Tuesday (March 24)

TEASER TUESDAYS asks you to:
  • Grab your current read.Let the book fall open to a random page.
  • Share with us two (2) “teaser” sentences from that page, somewhere between lines 7 and 12.
  • You also need to share the title of the book that you’re getting your “teaser” from … that way people can have some great book recommendations if they like the teaser you’ve given!
  • Please avoid spoilers!



I realise that lust stands high in the list of deadly sins. And yet lust - the tightening throat, the flushed cheecks, the raging appetite - is the only word accurate to describe the sensation I felt that morning, as the painted door closed and I was left with the liberty of all those books. (22)

March - Geraldine Brooks

Ooh, I've never heard of this book before, but from that one sentence alone I am adding it to my list!

Ah yes! It is Tuesday already where you are isn't it? Monday afternoon for me here in the States. You are the second person I have seen with this book. Your teaser is brilliant. You made me put it on my TBR!

writemeg: This is actually a reread for me so yes, I do love it :)

Kate: Oh, I would recommend it, it's excellent

Jenny: Yep, I'm a few hours earlier so I always feel like I'm cheating. I would reccomend March for your tbr list, it's a really good book.

I re-read Little Women for the second or third time and then tried to read this one. I just couldn't get into it :(

Ladytink: really? I LOVE Little Women, so I was prepared to be a little defensive when I read this book for the first time last year, but I was completely won over. Can I ask what it is you don't like about it?

I picked it up after it came out so I really don't remember. I don't think I got past chapter two before something I wanted to read more caught my eye.
