Teaser Tuesday



Currently Reading

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along!

Just do the following to participate:

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!
Share the title &; author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!

Teaser from page 10

That's what I love about reading: one tiny thing will interest you in a book, and that tiny thing will lead you onto another book, and another bit there will lead you onto a third book.  It's geometrically progressive - all with no end in sight, and for no other reason than sheer enjoyment.


I am so pleased I am reading this, I am thoroughly enjoying it.  I appreciate the title now but still think it is one of the worst titles ever, lol

I look forward to reading your teaser.

    Ha, I stayed away from this book because of the title too (seriously?! could it have been more boring and a mouthful? but like you, after I finished reading the book, the title made a lot more sense...) I'm glad I finally read it though, and happy to hear you're enjoying it!

    I loved this one too! I became so immersed that I looked Guernsey up on the map, studied the area and watched old videos from the German invasion on YouTube! This is truly a great read! Glad you're loving it!!

    I had visions of little old ladies from the title :)

    So glad I read this one. I had no idea of the role Guernsey had in WW2.
    One of my favourite reads

    Wow..I love that teaser. Might be because it sounds like an awesome read or it might be because I love reading. Maybe both!

    Happy Reading!

    Glad you are enjoying it- I loved the book but the title is waaaaaay too long. Every time I mentioned it in writing I shortened it to GLPPPS.

    I visited Guernsey as a child and loved those islands. I was never quite sure what this book was about and so didn't pick it up. I may reconsider after hearing you are enjoying it.
    I'm having a book review competition on my blog if you're interested.
