Teaser Tuesdays #90


Teaser Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by Should Be Reading.

• 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!

 
My Teasers:
 
“I shook so that it was some time before I realized that he was shaking too, and for the same reason. I don't know how long we sat there on the dusty floor, crying in each others arms with the longing of twenty years spilling down our faces.”  

Voyager by Diana Gabaldon


Here's another book that I am re-reading but as an audio book. I just love Jamie!


“Maybe you will finally take that trip that you've always dreamed of; perhaps you will strive to have a positive effect in the life of a loved one, an acquaintance or a complete stranger. Either way, I challenge you to just get out and do it."

Goodwill Tour: Paying It Forward by Keith Maginn


I have a feeling that I'm going to be inspired reading this book :)

  3. Hmm the second teaser does sound inspiring. The first one is a bit on the sad side.

  4. Great description of what the characters are feeling in the VOYAGER excerpt, and sage advice in GOODWILL TOUR. Both sound like books I'd enjoy.
    My Teaser Tuesday excerpt is from HEARTS IN RUIN.

    1. Yes, I am planning to read all the books. I am re-reading the first three so I could continue on to the fourth book of the series.

  13. Oooh, the Outlander series... I've only read the first one, but frustration kept me from reading the rest. Perhaps I will have to go back and give it a second try. Here’s my TT!
