Teaser Tuesdays - March 22nd

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 I'm reading...



He took a deep breath. "I have to admit that the thought of being responsible for a baby scares me. I worry if I'm mature enough."

Annie nodded back smiling. "You are, honey."

"That's just holding him or playing with him for a few minutes. I'm talking about the long haul."

"I'll be there too," she said with a reassuring smile.


Note: This might sound like it's from the end of the book, but it's only the beginning!

    Nice teaser! I think it accurately portrays some of the fears of parenthood. My teasers this week are from Kat, Incorrigible by Stephanie Burgis and A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness. Happy reading!

    I don't know why but I keep seeing a joke coming shortly after this sentence. But maybe that's just me. I hope you're enjoying this book a lot.

    Thanks for dropping by my blog. Audrey Hepburn is an icon and I loved all her movies, and reading the book I have of her.

    I love the cover of this book, and it is a long haul raising children, I know I've been there 5 times, but I made it through, and I think I still have some hair left. ; ) Fun teaser.

    Very good teaser. I will check it out. Looking at all those teasers only makes my tbr pile longer! So many books, so less time to read, so less space to keep!
