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!
"Look who's talking - Miss Career."
"I can be perfectly happy without having a man hanging around and telling me what to do, if that's what you mean," Ida said. "You just can't depend on them. Take Jamal, for example - going to Singapore during Hari Raya!"
Again Sharifah blushed.
Mira broke the ensuing silence by saying, "Did you hear? Youngest Aunt said Rudi married a widower with two children."
pg 81, 'Home for Hari Raya', Lovers and Strangers Revisited by Robert Raymer.
Mmm...this teaser definitely makes you wonder what the context is...good choice!

Very cool teaser!
ReplyDeleteI know it is just a tease, but it sounds as though I would enjoy the novel. My tease is here: http://rundpinne.blogspot.com/2009/09/footsteps-in-dark-teaser-tuesdays.html
ReplyDeleteceli.a: I thought it sounded kind of vague too. Glad you saw it from a different perspective.

Jennifer: I think you would. This book is full of short stories. :) Thanks for the link.
