Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. 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!
Include the link to your Teaser in the comments.
I'm currently reading and completely enjoying it!
Here's my teaser:
"He hates charity dinners, with all that bonhomie and the childish showoff auctions and those terrible jokey speeches. Dickens described financiers of his time at a charity dinner: sleek, slobbery, bow-paunched, overfed, apoplectic, snorting cattle."
"There are houses running along one side of the street, and behind the large ground-floor shop-front windows, all the whores have little rooms and plushly pillowed armchairs in which they sit up close to the glass wearing bras and panties. They look like big bored cats.

Wow "sleek, slobbery, bow-paunched, overfed, apoplectic, snorting cattle" Sadly not too far off from the truth sometimes! Thanks for visiting my teaser!

Great teaser! That sounds like a really interesting read.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by Project to be Read :)
Which makes me very glad that I'm not in the field of money managing! That sound just a tad horrible! Great teaser though!
