Making this short and sweet. Another Tamar Myers book for today's teaser.
This time around I'm getting the first two lines of our book.
The invoice from the estate auction read as follows:
one Louis XV armoire
one Louis XV desk
one small Louis XV table
one carved and gilded mirror.
It said nothing about a body.
-p. 1, Gilt by Association, A Den of Antiquity mystery by Tamar Myers.
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 love this series but don't think I have read this one. I have two this week. My YA teaser comes from Fall for Anything by Courtney Summers and my adult teaser comes from Side Jobs by Jim Butcher. Happy reading!
Here is my teaser from Out of Touch by Brandon Tietz (Page vii):
I used to be the kind of guy that would have no problem reading Playboy or Hustler on an airplane, but that me in "the before," and nearly everything has changed since that time in my life a little over a year ago.
This is not a coming of age story.
If that's what you're wanting then I suggest you put this down and read something else: something with a happy ending. Like Penthouse.
Or: the funny pages.
This is me giving you your official warning.
Because where this goes, you might not be ready for.
Wow, talking about eyeraising, A body? Now that got my curiosity up.
My Tuesday Teaser
Ah, yes, that is a tease.
