Teaser Tuesday is hosted by MizB at Should Be Reading. Here are the rules: Grab your current read. Open to a random page. Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page, and 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 Teaser Tuesday participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!
Class Collision by Annette Mackey
And now, for my Tuesday Teaser...For those of you who don't know, I do my Tuesday Teasers differently (and yes, I add this disclaimer every time). Each week, I feature two sentences (or more) of something I've written, leave it up all day, then remove it around 11 PM. You're welcome to comment on it, love it, hate it, or simply read it at your leisure...if you'd like, of course. This week's teaser is from my current WIP, RACE.
Love it, I'm now wondering who Burningham happens to be!
ReplyDeleteMy teaser, along with a blogger spotlight of a fellow blogger and reader, is up at e-Volving Books
Great teasers! They sound great. My TT is at Coffee Table Press
ReplyDeleteGood ones, both! Burningman - what a great name! This week my teaser is from The Iron Queen.
ReplyDeleteNice teasers for both. Mine is at The Crowded Leaf.
ReplyDeleteMelissa, I can't take many more of your teasers, they're SO GOOD! You want a beta reader for your book, you let me know:)
ReplyDeleteI love your teasers from your WIP. Get it published already ;)
ReplyDeleteI love coming here and seeing your teaser :) One again great choice! You can find my teaser at The Bookish Snob Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteOooh, who's Burningman? So intriguing!

You always leave me wanting more! It's so good.
ReplyDeleteGreat teaser as always, now who is this mystery man
ReplyDeleteUh-oh now Im gonna be wracking my brain trying figure out who Burningman is.....
ReplyDeleteAnd Im going to the library to try and find Class Collision
Love them both but as usual I am most taken with your teaser. This character strong and self-assured and a bit perturbed at having Burningman having the ability to test that. Very cool!
ReplyDeleteyour writing is so good, melissa!! thank you for always sharing your writing with us!
ReplyDeleteHere is my teaser from Lipstick in Afghanistan by Roberta Gately (Page 1):
ReplyDelete"Do you hear it?" The voice was almost a whisper.
Elsa held her breath, and then she heard it too, a faint rustling of footsteps over twigs and leaves. Out of the corner of her eye, she glimpsed several shadowy figures darting through the trees, and when she turned, she saw a glint of sunlight reflecting off the barrel of an assault rifle.
There was no denying it—the Taliban had found them.
Oh, Jesus! she thought. We'll never escape.
Elsa knew the Taliban's ruthless hatred; the death and destruction they wrought was undeniable.
Seized by a sickening wave of fear, she wanted to cry or throw up, but there was no time. She tried to catch Parween's eye, but her friend was looking back, intent on finding the source of the sound.
"Run!" someone shouted, and suddenly, the chase was on.
I love the first teaser haha.
ReplyDeleteIts hilarious xD
Is that a YA book??
Thanks for the comment btw[:
Goblet of Fire is my first favorite book so far in Harry Potter =D
Burningman. Oooo good. Love the other teaser too. Sounds cute.
ReplyDeleteOnce again your teaser has me itching for RACE. And once again, RACE has me more intrigued than the already published book (not that the pubbed book is bad, but I really want to read RACE at this point).
ReplyDeleteGreat teaser from you, as always. And now I want to know... who.. or what... is Burningham?! :)
ReplyDeleteAwesome teasers!
ReplyDeleteI love that hair one. That is so good and true.
ReplyDeleteNice teaser, and love your blog! My TT: http://mediacenter.tyndale.com/images/x_tbn/i_review_for_the_tyndale_blog_network.gif
ReplyDeleteNotice how we all wanna be older then we do then we wanna be younger again lol.
ReplyDeleteHappy Holidays

ReplyDelete(And thank you for stopping by with such lovely comments at Bookduck :) )
LOL. Love the first teaser. You keep making me add books to my wishlist :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for stopping by my blog! You should read The Book Thief soon! Interesting teaser by the way!
ReplyDeleteCheck out mine if you like.
Brush Up On Your Reading
Your teaser! Ahh! :D I'm very curious about who this Burningman is...
ReplyDeleteWhat is Class Collision about? Also re your comment on my blog. I've already finished Will Grayson, Will Grayson (just haven't posted the review yet). I really liked it.
ReplyDeleteI didn't like Lonely Hearts Club that much either. I liked it okay, but was disappointed.
Both quotes have left me yearning for more! Great teasers!
ReplyDeleteI really, really want to read RACE! The teasers kill me!
ReplyDeleteGreat TT! Mine's up Silent Night
ReplyDeleteI love love love your WIP progress teaser. You are so unbelievably talented (and that is saying something if I can tell by 2 sentences)
ReplyDeleteI love the teaser about facial hair - it certainly leaves me wanting to know more.
