Teaser Tuesday, a blog meme hosted by MizB on Should Be Reading.
Grab your current read. Let the book fall open to a random page. Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from that page. Share the title & author of the book that you’re getting your “teaser” from so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR list if they like your teaser. Please avoid spoilers!
So here is my Teaser for Tuesday:
I'd be happy just lying on my back in the middle of a busy pavement, people stepping over me and cursing me for getting in their way. It does something strange to my senses, blunts them - like eating ice-cream when you have a cold. You're vaguely aware that you usually enjoy mint choc chip more, but you carry on eating it just the same.
Okay, that was three sneaky sentences.
Thaw
Fiona Robyn
Pg 39
A fictional diary of a woman giving herself 92 days before she makes the decision of whether to live or not.
What's your Teaser?

Great teaser, fun cover. I will be looking into this book. Thanks for visiting my teaser. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Jennifer, and you are welcome.
ReplyDeleteGosh, you are quick in replying!

Sounds interesting... can't decide if it sounds depressing or enlightening.
ReplyDeleteNow that is intriguing! I have read good reports of Fiona Robyn before, and now you have inspired me to set about tracking down her books. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteWell, haven't read it all yet, but I am sure it's going to be both...but I could be wrong! :)
ReplyDeleteEnjoying though!
I'm am pleased Fleur -- It's always great to introduce and recommend someone to a new author!
ReplyDeleteSassy

I'm definitely curious, sound like a very moving read!

I'm reading a book with the same kind of theme. Look forward to your thoughts on this one.
ReplyDeleteHi Marce! You are organised for 2010!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment.
Ooh, that does sound intriguing! Love the book cover and book title, too!
ReplyDeleteMy tease: http://laurel-rain-snow.blogspot.com
Thanks Allison, yes, I do like the cover too -- it gives the impression she is laying there thinking...and she struggles a lot with what is going on with her head, so it fits nicely.
ReplyDeleteLying in the middle of a busy pavement may reduce the 92 days she may have to live! Nice tease.
ReplyDeleteOh wow, I wonder how the book ends. That's a great description. I'm going to have to look this book up.
ReplyDeleteGreat teaser! Here's mine.
Sounds like an interesting read! I will have to check it out.
ReplyDeleteWhat a thought. I too want to do that!
ReplyDeleteTeaser Tuesdays: Yes, My Darling Daughter by Margaret Leroy
That sounds really interesting - thanks for posting it!
ReplyDeleteI've got a football teaser today! And a giveaway!
Great teaser - love the analogy to eating ice cream with a cold - never thought about that. I've been wanting to read this book.
ReplyDeleteGreat teaser! It reminds me of Radiohead's video for Just, with the guy who lays down on the sidewalk: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oIFLtNYI3Ls
ReplyDeleteHere's my Teaser Tuesday.
Great teaser! This sounds really good.
ReplyDeleteNow that's intriguing...hope you're enjoying it.
ReplyDeleteWow, I like the teaser (and the book cover!). The little blurb sounds fascinating too. I can't say I do the ice cream while sick thing, but I'm a sucker for chocolate bars...
ReplyDeleteThanks for coming by my blog!
