Welcome to Teaser Tuesday, the weekly Meme that wants you to add books to your TBR, or just share what you are currently reading. It is very easy to play along:
• 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! Everyone loves Teaser Tuesday.
“We came onto the Graben at the plague column. The lamps of passing carriages flickered over the memorial of those who died over the Black Death. Nine carved choirs of angels ascended toward it’s gilded peak. To me, it seemed like the cherubs were slipping down to hell, grasping in vain for the elusive light of salvation above them.”
― Mozart’s last Aria by Matt Rees
I shall hang my head in shame that I have posted a teaser from this poor book yet again. I keep reading a few pages and then I end up getting bogged down in work. Poor excuse I know, but the Kindle seems to get along with my work schedule a bit better than hard copy books right now. What I need is a month or two without too many people, no computer and a boat. Yup, that’s what I need.
Here’s ours: http://ourstack.blogspot.com/2017/06/teaser-tuesday.html
It is terrible how work has a habit of interfering with your reading.
My teaser this week is all about stories https://iwuvbooks.wordpress.com/2017/06/06/teaser-tuesday-6th-june-2017/
Hate when life interrupts reading time!
Here’s my Tuesday Post
Oh I could go along with one or two months of reading time. Writers go on retreat, might be a great idea for readers, too. 😉
My teaser this week is from We All Looked Up by Tommy Wallach.
Oh yes! The number of times I have cursed THE WORLD for getting between me and my book… My current TT is the latest murder mystery by a marvellous writer – https://sjhigbee.wordpress.com/2017/06/06/teaser-tuesday-6th-june-2017/
Good teaser! I need a reading retreat too.
I’m playing today at Beth Fish Reads.
Hope you get to do some serious reading soon. I know I miss it terribly when I do not have the time to immerse myself in another world.

It happens to the best of us, life gets in the way of our reading sometimes.

Life can be demanding like that. I’d rather be reading most times too. My teaser is from Celia Rivenbark’s Belle Weather http://razzberrycoloredglasses.blogspot.com/2017/06/teaser-tuesday-belle-weather-by-celia.html
Finished mine in the wee small hours of the morning and ooooh it was good!

That is something of a downer teaser! Mine’s not quite as bad, since it’s the living, but it’s pain. Here’s mine:
