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!
It's Tuesday again! Here's my teaser: (I usually don't do just two sentences. Whatever it takes to finish the blurb.)



To The Blight: The Eye of the World, part 2 (Wheel of Time, #1-2)""Well," Loial said, "perhaps you humans do have short lives, but you do so much with them, always jumping around, always so hasty. And you have the whole world to do it in. We Ogier are bound to our stedding. " "You're Outside." "For a time, Rand. But I must go back, eventually. This world is yours, yours and your kind's. The stedding are mine. There's too much hurly-burly Outside. And so much is changed from what I read about.""

From the Two Rivers: The Eye of the World, Part 1 (Wheel of time, #1-1)""Because of those three", Lan said angrily. "The fire, the injured, the going on -- all because of those three. The fact that the price must be paid is proof that it is worth paying. The Dark One wants those boys of yours, and anything he wants this badly, he must be kept from. Or would you rather led the Fade have them?"" - page 257 of "From the Two Rivers: The Eye of the World Part One" by Robert Jordan

City of Ashes (The Mortal Instruments, #2) ""Not," he reminded her, "if it meant breaking the Law." 
"The Law!" Isabelle snapped in disgust. "There's a higher law than the Clave, Alec. The law of family. Jace is your family."
"The law of family? I've never heard of that before," Alec said, nettled." - pg 327 of City of Ashes by Cassandra Clare

City of Bones (The Mortal Instruments, #1)"She said nothing, biting the inside of her lip. She hated the idea of someone reaching inside her head, touching memories so private and hidden that even she couldn't reach them. "She doesn't have to do anything she doesn't want to do," Jace said suddenly. "Does she?" " - pg 167 of City of Bones by Cassandra Clare

My Teaser:


"I take off after them in a dead sprint, but even as my heart thunders in my ears and sweat begins to trickle down my back, I know it's a lost cause. They're fast, so much faster than a human." - pg 114 of Sisters Red by Jackson Pearce

Read-a-thon & Teaser Tuesday

 
So, as required, here's today's update on my reading for the Read-a-thon! I'm almost finished with Ice by Sarah Beth Durst and I'll be starting The Tomorrow Code by Brian Falkner or Numbers by Rachel Ward. I might - hopefully - find a smaller book in my bookcase and read that instead. I have no qualms with re-reading things. :]

And now for the Teaser Tuesday!

My Teaser:

"Momentarily, the wind died, and she saw the storm. It sounded and looked like a cloud of hissing bees. "Oh, Bear," she whispered, "how could you do this to me?" " - pg 156 of Ice by Sarah Beth Durst
