First Chapter Tuesdays/Teaser Tuesdays - December 1st


Every Tuesday Diane at Bibliophile By the Sea hosts First Chapter First Paragraph Tuesday Intros, where we share the first paragraph or (a few) of a book we are reading or thinking about reading soon. Care to join us?

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!


I'm currently reading...




First chapter...

"Did you hear what I said?"

I turned my attention to my ex-husband. "No." I leaned across the table we were sharing at Daphne's Trattoria, careful not to get eggplant parmigiana all over my new hot pink cashmere sweater. I dropped my voice to a whisper. "I'm trying to figure out what Calista and Trey are talking about. Can you believe they're dating?"

"Molly, right now I don't care if Justin Bieber is dating Madonna."


Teaser...

"I know! I can't believe Trey would do something like that," Olivia declared. "I think I'd be more than a little nervous if I were Calista or the Jandellas. What if Trey decides to carry out his threats? Next time it could be a real gun."



What do you think? Would you continue reading?

  1. I'm a cozy fan, so yes I'd likely keep reading. Always interesting when a ex-spouse is involved.

    I'm playing (with a giveaway) at Beth Fish Reads

  5. Can you imagine if Justin Bieber and Madonna really were dating? That would be too weird. Now you've got that thought in my head. Haha

    I do like the opening and teaser you shared, Yvonne. I wonder what Trey is so upset about . . .

  8. Cozies are so much fun! I like the interaction between the woman and her ex-husband -- "Did you hear what I said?" -- realistic dialogue.
    My Tuesday post features the Rawhide ‘n Roses anthology.
