Teaser Tuesdays

August 31, 2010
tags: , ,

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.

Back from vacation in time for a Tuesday Teaser.  I started Appointment in Samarra by John O’Hara last night so that’s what I’ll be featuring today.

“It looked like Julian was going to have a good party some time between Christmas and New Year’s, because he has asked Ed Charney, the big shot, if he could get him a case of champagne, good champagne, and deliver it the day after Christmas.  Ed, of course, said he’d be only too glad to get some good champagne, and he had attended to the matter himself.” (17)

    Hmmm. I’ve never heard of that book or author! The book sounds interesting.

    My teaser is from The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams.

    Interesting- contemporary slice of life, I take it?

      Sort of, takes place in 1930, and it’s based in the area of Pennsylvania I grew up in.
