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.
I’m currently reading Life in Medieval France by E.R. Chamberlin, and while interesting, it’s more like a textbook and not really good for teasing. Instead, I’m going to share from a book I’ll be reading later in the week — The House on the Strand by Daphne Du Maurier.
“The first thing I noticed was the clarity of the air, and the sharp green colour of the land. There was no softness anywhere.” (1)
What are you teasing us with this week?
Just Book Reading 
I am hoping to read some more du Maurier soon!
My teaser comes from The Night Villa by Carol Goodman
I love du Maurier, but I don’t remember this title. Hummmm I wonder if I’ve read it.
Ah, what sharp writing! I hope you enjoy it; it sounded interesting when you first posted about it.
Great teaser! I’ve been wanting to read more of Daphne’s novels, I just never have the time. Someday! My teaser is at The Crowded Leaf.
Hope you’re enjoying it. I love DuMaurier! She can just pull you into the moment so easily.
Wonderful description…almost poetic!
Here’s my teaser, from the novel “Sweet Poison” by Ellen Hart.
