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 this week I'm going to post teasers for more than one book. The book I'm reading. The book I won on GoodReads which is on deck. And MockingJay which is in the hole.
City of Bones by Cassandra Clare is up first.

"If you wanted me to rip my clothes off you should have just asked." He dug into his pocket and brought out his stele. "It would have been a lot less painful." p 187



On deck is The Keys of Fate novel number 1: Tower of Change by Tina M.Randolph.

Suddenly there was an outpouring of melodramatic opposition, and one of the wizards roared, "Maybe we shouldn't allow them to co-exist. Maybe we should use our magic to make them extinct!" p 36


Last not least comes the batter in the hole,


Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins. The last in the Hunger Games trilogy!!!!! Happy birthday to me!! Hehe.

"Oh no. It costs a lot more than your life. To murder innocent people?" says Peeta. "It costs everything you are." p 23

    Hi Tara!

    Thanks for stopping by my blog :) Glad I'm not the only one having trouble settling down for just 2 sentences :)

    I love your picks. I read Mortal Instruments series and loved it :) Ah, Jace! *wink*
    And Mocking Jay was awesome, too :) I'm glad to see you're enjoying such great reads!
    I don't know the middle one, but will check it out, the teaser sounds great!

    Cheers!

    I've picked up City of Bones several times only to put it back down again. Is it as good as they say? It looks interesting and may just have to pick it up and keep it next time.

    Great teasers from all the books! Especially the one from Mockingjay! You're the second person I've seen to use a line from that book. It's making me want to read them over again =)

    Thanks for coming by my blog today!

    This is my first time participating in TT, but I'm glad I have! 'Tower of chance' totally sounds like my kind of book! I'll add it to my TBR list! Great teasers, hope you check mine out too :)

    So ... I've read City of Bones and I liked it though I felt part of it was a little slow. Still it's a good book.

    I actually just finished reading Mockingjay and I hope you've read the first two in that series. The Hunger Games is a great series! I normally don't read dystopian fantasy but this one is great!
