Teaser Tuesday, October 20
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!
My teaser this week comes from The Rapture
In the morning we watch the news. The pall of dust is clearing to reveal a choked wasteland desolate as a hundred thousand Ground Zeros, dwarfing anything I have seen or could have imagined, a smoking , smoldering bleakness that stretches for kilometer upon kilometer, with odd pockets of normality on which the sun shines: a playing field, a rind of park, a sparkling lake sprinkeled with painted paddleboats.
What is your teaser this week?
