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.
This week my teaser comes from The House on Durrow Street by Galen Beckett.
“The lumenal was far shorter than what the almanac called for, and the sunbeam that fell from the high window seemed to lurch across Eldyn’s writing table in fits and starts.
He did little work on the box of receipts.” (page 528 of 602 on Nook)
I like your teaser…the sentences sound beautiful
Oh, I like the sound of this one…very lovely language, and that cover…mysterious!
Here’s mine:

You can find my tesser at The Bookish Snob
Ooh I like the look and sound of this book. Let me know when you’ve posted a review. My teaser is at The Crowded Leaf.
Here is my teaser from Expiation by Greg Messel (page 1):
My sudden and unexpected return to Seattle was about to trigger a chain of events which completely change my life. Three months from this date my career, my life in San Francisco with my daughter and everything I had known before would be radically altered.
The style sounds lovely. I’ve got the first in this series on my reading list.
Amazing teaser! The flow of the words is really well done.
Such a descriptive sentence…I can’t wait to read this one.
Here’s my tease:
