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 pageBE 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!)
Teaser:
"She'd never been injured accidentally before. It was hard to know how to categorize this attack in her mind; it almost seemed funny. She had a dagger scar on one forearm, another on her belly. An arrow gouge from years ago in her back. It was a thing that happened now and then. For every peaceful man, there was a man who wanted to hurt her, even kill her, because she was a gorgeous thing he could not have, or because he'd despised her father. And for every attack that had left a scar there were five or six other attacks she'd managed to stop."
Fire, by Kristin Cashore, page 30-31
This. sounds. awesome. Need to check out form library/order from Borders.

Really good teaser. Makes me want to check it out. I think I'm going to like TT!
ReplyDeleteLove your teaser! I've already read Graceling, but I'm about to reread it, and then I'll move on to Fire. (Btw, I love the cover!)
ReplyDeleteGreat teaser! I've been wanting to read this one for a while.
ReplyDeletesounds interesting! i would share my two sentences, but right now i'm reading the autobiography of a woman who pioneered women's suffrage in england, so i'm not sure how much of a "teaser" it would be (i'm a bit of a nerd for feminist autobiographies!)
