Teaser Tuesday is hosted by MizB at Should Be Reading.
- Grab your current read.
- Let the book fall open to a random page.
- Share with us two (2) “teaser” sentences from that page.
- 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!
It was a mighty voice, a woman’s voice, but a woman with lungs of brass and leather. Lyra looked around for her at once, because this was Ma Costa, who had clouted Lyra dizzy on two occasions but had given her hot gingerbread on three, and whole family was noted for the grandeur and sumptuousness of their boat.

movie cover, movie cover!!!Becca how could you? Isn't the book called 'The Nothern Lights' while 'The Golden Compass' (which doesn't get the main focus of the story if you ask me) the movie title?hmmm?
This is one I'd like to read one day.
I liked The Golden Compass. The Subtle Knife was ok. The Amber Spyglass was so utterly boring to me that I could not torture myself any longer even to finish the trilogy. Not even King's Dark Tower books were that bad.
I found one of those book sypnosis online though because I wanted to know how some things turned out. I thought it sounded ridiculous.
it certainly sounds delicious
read my teaser here
Sounds interesting. Mine is here - http://nidhiveens-loveforbooks.blogspot.com/2009/07/teasers-tuesday.html

Interesting teaser. I haven't read any of these.
I picked this one up at my local used book store, but I haven't started it yet. Look forward to your review.
I really liked this book. It's a shame the movie was terrible!
I also read the second, but lost some interest. I have the third sitting on my shelf...waiting.
I look forward to your review.
