Teaser Tuesdays (June 9)

June 9, 2009 by Darlene

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading and it asks us to…
  • 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 my teaser this week…

  • ‘”You know, I want to kiss you, but I don’t want you to run screaming from the room or anything,” said Lonnie.’ (pg 230, Secrets to Happiness by Sarah Dunn)

I thought that was cute. lol. I’m just starting the book for a Hachette Blog Tour on June 12 so I’m not sure what leads up to this statement but I want to find out.

How about you, what teasers do you have this week? Leave me a link to yours or share here in the comments.

    The trick is to make yourself small. Shrink your sphere of sound inside your sphere of sight. Widen your periphery: watch only motion. (Pg. 75, The Echo Maker, Richard Powers.
    this is a great read.

    He must think he is either one heck of a good kisser or the opposite. Hmmmm sounds very interesting.

    Probably a good thing I'm not on this tour as the book was boring to me and I really did not like any of the characters. Cute dog on the front though!

    You can't go wrong with a kiss! Now, I'm intrigued! I'll be looking for your review. Happy reading!

    You're right – it was very cute. But why would Lonnie's kiss cause her to run screaming from the room, I wonder? Nice teaser.

  29. carolsnotebook says

    June 10, 2009 at 2:33 am

    I have to agree- cute. I can't wait to hear more about the book.

  30. Belle says

    June 10, 2009 at 5:13 am

    Come to think of it, I wouldn't want anyone to run away screaming if I kissed them either. Very cute quote!

    Thanks everyone for popping into my Teaser Tuesday from a month ago. Yes, bad on me, just getting to comment. Anyhow, while SEcrets to Happiness wasn't a favorite book of mine I still enjoyed it and would read another of SArah Dunn's books in the future. I do have to say it's got one of the cutest covers I've seen in a long time-that dog is just adorable.

    Dar, I'm so glad I'm not the only one who responds to comments a bit late!
