Teaser Tuesday - 2 Feb



Teaser Tuesday

The rules are:
  • 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 and author 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!
Another bite from Rose Tremain's 'The Road Home' - it's a long read, but very much worth it!
They heard slow feet shuffling forward, then Lev saw a large woman, with curly grey hair and eyes that were still almost beautiful in the colourless dough of her face, standing before them. Round her neck was an ancient string of pearls.

I have a couple of Rose Tremain books on my shelves, but haven't read any of them yet. Her books sound really intriguing. Excellent teaser.
Here's mine.

Wonderful teaser! I am reading Iron King so I just had to use it for my teaser. Here is my blog where you can find it: http://emmamichaels.blogspot.com/
