Teaser Tuesdays - July 12th

Labels:


If you'd like to play along on Teaser Tuesdays, just click the button above.


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!

This week one of the books I'm reading...



This is from the first page of the book...

As her final act on this earth, Lyda Sue Stalnaker plummeted out of a Las Vegas helicopter and landed smack in the middle of the pirates' lagoon in front of the Treasure Island Hotel, disrupting the 8:30 P.M. pirate show....


My name is Lucky O'Toole, and I am the chief problem solver at the Babylon, the newest, most over-the-top mega-casino/resort on the Las Vegas strip. I'd been fighting my way through the crowds packing the casino on my way to Stairwell Fifteen to deal with a naked man asleep under the stairs when I caught the television feed out of the corner of my eye.


Okay, so it's more than two sentences but I couldn't decide which to use and they both were on the same page :)

    Now, this one sounds like fun. I'll have to add it to my wishlist. My teasers are from Spell Bound by Kelley Armstrong and Haunting Violet by Alyxandra Harvey. Happy reading!

    Intriguing concept and setting! I know what you mean about having a hard time deciding what to use for a teaser - sometimes it's hard to just keep it to one.
