Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly event hosted by MizzB at Should Be Reading.
- Each week TEASER TUESDAYS asks you to:
- 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 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!
This week my teasers are from BOUND SOUTH by Susan Rebecca White:
"Louise, today my daughter was caught at my alma mater performing fellatio on one of her teachers. I think I deserve a drink. Frankly, I think I deserve to drink as much as I goddamn please." ~page 121

I consider myself teased, LOL.
ReplyDeleteWow! I think I need another cup of coffee.
ReplyDeleteThat cover is really cool, too. I was just at a writer's conference and one panel discussion covered the ways in which publishers are using the "decapitated head" covers more often to leave the image of the face to the readers' imagination.
I laughed out loud at that one!!
ReplyDeleteKaren: you should check out the comments at Pop Culture Junkie (Alea's blog) today -- headless people is the topic.
lol-man that cracked me up this morning!
ReplyDeleteyikes!
ReplyDeleteLOL! I felt like being a bit sassy this morning! This book has great wit along with some drama - a nice mix of each. I'm really enjoying it!
ReplyDeleteKaren - you're right about the cover. I think its a great technique too.
I usually adhere to the 2 sentences only rule - but those 3 together are pure comedy genius!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness--I would be drinking right along with her after that! Nice teaser.
ReplyDeleteHello...every mother's nightmare. LOL
ReplyDeleteIf the rest of the book reads like that, sign me up!
ReplyDeleteOh my! Whew! I think *I* need a glass of wine after that. ;)
ReplyDelete*smiles*

LOL - What a great teaser. :)
ReplyDeleteHere's my Teaser! ~ Wendi
OMG! The narrator can drink the whole bottle! Can you imagine that phone call!?!
ReplyDeleteInteresting about the headless cover girl ... I've noticed a lot of "back of head" covers and figure it's for the same reason.
Wow, that's a teaser alright!
