First Chapter Tuesday/Teaser Tuesday - January 22nd


Every Tuesday Vicki at I'd Rather Be At the Beach 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?



Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, now being hosted by Ambrosia at The Purple Booker. 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 still reading this one this week. 







First Chapter... (Since I used the first two chapters in my Friday post, I'm posting the next couple from the first chapter.)


Michael and I sat on the couch, knees inches apart but not daring to touch.  He raised his hand to place a reassuring palm on my shoulder, and I involuntarily flinched.  He stopped, pretended to examine his wedding band, and then lowered the hand back to his lap.  I pretended not to notice.

Teaser...

Why hadn't we gotten this over with on Monday?

We'd waited three extra days this time, in superstitious agreement that if we pretended to have more patience, the outcome would be different.

It wouldn't.

What do you think? Would you keep reading?

  5. I have a few books in this series but haven't started it yet. It sounds like a good cozy and I love the yoga angle!
