Teaser Tuesday

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!

OK. So today's teaser is from my current read, Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins.


"It's easier to keep up the irreverent, invincible manner we've all adopted when there are more of us. As people disappear through the door, all I can think is that they have a matter of days to live." p. 234

And because I'm so excited to read this, I'm going to do another.

"This is a tall, muscular man with sharp creases in his pants. The pieces of the picture do not quite come together until I see his arm raise the whip." p. 185

I'm only on page 57 of this one! It's a little bit slower going, not because it's any less exciting than the first book, but there have been other things going on and I just can't bring myself to pick up my book until very late in the day, and by that point, I'm too tired to read. I'm emotionally and physically drained.

But I hope you enjoyed the teasers! Can't wait to see all of yours!

  3. Great pick! I simply adored this series. Well, except for Mockingjay. We don't speak of Mockingjay.

  4. Yeah, Mockingjay definitely wasn't my favorite. I mean it wasn't bad, but I don't know. I feel like it left a lot to be desired. I don't want to spoil you, though, so just let me know whenever you finish the series, and we can compare notes! :)
