Teaser Tuesday (09.15.09)

September 15, 2009 Leave a comment Go to comments

teasertuesdays31Teaser 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!

Head on over to MizB’s to share your teasers and to check out what others are teasing about

My teaser is from The Road by Cormac McCarthy. This week I am cheating as there are more than 2 sentences. If I could, I would just copy and paste the entire book.

You wanted to know what the bad guys looked like. Now you know. It may happen again. My job is to take care of you. I was appointed to do that by God. I will kill anyone who touches you. Do you understand?

Yes.

What are you teasing about this week?

    OMG THIS IS ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVOURITE BOOKS. I mean, seriously, the only thing that beats it by a VERY SLIM MARGIN is a Tolstoy book. And to be honest, it is beginning to take over for the number one spot. LOVE THAT BOOK. GREAT teaser!

      I just finished this morning. This was….have to think of the right words. Amazing! It may possibly knock off a couple titles at the top of my list!

    I read this book last year, and while I wasn’t a huge fan of it, there are some really haunting moments in it. And the movie looks pretty good.
    Here’s my Teaser Tuesday.

    Awesome teaser. I need to look this one up and most likely add it to the ever expanding TBR pile. Mine is here: http://rundpinne.blogspot.com/2009/09/footsteps-in-dark-teaser-tuesdays.html
