Teaser Tuesdays

July 27, 2010

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. The idea is to give everyone a look inside the book you’re reading.

Play along: Grab your current read; Open to a random page; Share two teaser sentences from that page; Share the title and author so that other participants know what you’re reading.

Today’s teaser comes from Kraken by China Miéville.

“Things flew overhead. Edgy birds. He glanced at them, and from where Billy stood, the perspective looked wrong.” (278)

What are you teasing us with this week?

    Great teaser, I’ll definitely be coming back to see what you think about Kraken. It looks intriguing to me. My teaser is at The Crowded Leaf.

      I hope to have something for next week depending on whether or not I put but in chair and write it. :-)

    Kraken is on my wishlist. Mine’s from Devil to Pay, a book I wrote.

      It’s a bit odd but a fun read.

    Ooh, very mysterious…. another of his novels, The City & The City, really interests me too.
