Welcome to Teaser Tuesday, the weekly Meme that wants you to add books to your TBR! You can also just share what you are currently reading. We make it very easy to play along, it is as easy as 1, 2, 3!
1: Grab your current read
2: Open to a random page
3: 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! Everyone loves Teaser Tuesday.
Ambrosia’s little note:
Tuesday, Tuesday, Tuesday! There is my impression of the Sunday, Sunday, Sunday guy, meanwhile people have run for the hills. LOL. I hope everyone is well this week and life is treating you kindly. Similarly, has anyone else noticed the year fly by? Firstly, its hard to believe it is May already! Secondly, I had a birthday Saturday and it took that for me to really pause for a moment. Consequently, I then went, wow where has the year gone so far? Above all, I also pulled out the trusty Wonder Woman planner and made a big note to self, that says remember to enjoy yourself more.
I often have a hard time remembering to take time away from the hustle and stress of things, and remember to do self care things. Self care things of course which include read more. I used to “chew through” books so fast, now I feel bad for my TBR and even my currently reading books sometimes, because they don’t get the attention they deserve.
Sorry if that got a little heavy for Tuesday, what can I say I start babbling sometimes when the time comes to prepare this post for everyone. One step I took to take a baby step towards more ME time was to pop on one of my favorite Audio books while I’m working, and while I have read/listened to this series a lot I still adore it every time I dive in and I am always happy when I get to share a teaser from this series.
Go on then Ambrosia we want the teaser!
Maybe I just want to try to turn everyone into a Dresden files fan. It could be that too, lol. I have two teasers from this one this week, because one is just my favorite quote from the book in general (to the point I have thought about making it a vinyl decal for my wall. Seriously.) and the other the more traditional random pick Teaser.
“It’s all right to be afraid. You just don’t let it stop you from doing your job.”
“My magic. That was at the heart of me. It was a manifestation of what I believed, what I lived. It came from my desire to see to it that someone stood between the darkness and the people it would devour.” ― Jim Butcher, Fool Moon
P.S. You may have noticed the quirky little sub-headings “snippets”, I am working on making all of my posts across all platforms more SEO friendly. I hope you guy’s don’t mind if I use The Purple Booker as a little bit of a testing ground for the SEO. I promise it will not overtly interfere with what you are here for!
I know what you mean about The Dresden Files, Ambrosia – great fun:)). My TT this week is a self help non-fiction read, which I’m enjoying –

A manifestation of what I believed. What a great phrase.
I love the Dresden files. So much fun.
Mine this week is from a much more serious book, but still fiction: https://pdworkman.com/excerpt-from-the-underground-railroad/
Happy Birthday! Hope it was fantastic. This is a series that I really want to read and have brought home the first book numerous times from the library.
Here’s my teaser
It is so hard to believe that it is May. This year is going by so fast, it’s making my head spin!

Happy Belated Birthday! Mine was last Friday. The year has just flown once we got out of January. My teaser is from Blood Rites, book 6 of the Dresden Files. I’m still making my way through the series for the first time and enjoying it. https://razzberrycoloredglasses.blogspot.com/2019/05/teaser-tuesday-blood-rites-by-jim.html
Happy Belated Birthday to you as well! Thank you for the wishes. Blood Rites is a good one too!
