Teaser Tuesdays (1.18.11)

 



MizB of Should Be Reading hosts Teaser Tuesday. 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 a tease of what I am currently reading:

As no stone portrait of her has yet proved authentic, Andre Malraux’s quip remains partly true: Nefertiti is a face without a queen; Cleopatra is a queen without a face.”


From Cleopatra: A Life by Stacy Schiff, pg. 39.

Please leave a comment with a link to your teaser so I can stop by.

    Nice TT however, I will wait for your review about this book, I'm on the fence about it.

    Thanks for visiting My Reading Corner today.

    I almost had this one to take home with me on Saturday. The library mixed up my hold with somebody else. Instead of the desired book, this was on the shelf. Like a good girl, I brought this to their attention. Maybe I should have taken it and run. 🙂 Sounds like a good one!

    Here's my TT: myreadersblock.blogspot.com/2011/01/teaser-tuesdays_18.html
