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 "teaser" sentences from somewhere on that page
Be careful not to include spoilers!
- Share the title and author, too.
Book: The Tent
Author: Margaret Atwood
"I was given a voice. That's what people say about me. I cultivated my voice, because it would be a shame to waste such a gift. I pictured this voice as a hothouse plant, something luxuriant, with glossy foliage and the word tuberous in the name, and a musky scent at night."
This isn't actually the book I'm reading right now. Sadly, I just discovered that I left the book I am reading in my locker at school. What a tragedy! So, this week's teaser is from the book I plan on reading next.

...and what an excellent teaser it is! Doesn't it make you even more eager to read it?
Awesome teaser! I love it, now I'll definitely have to check this one out. And I hate it when that happens (locker).
Way cool!
Here is my Teaser Tuesday :)
That's a really wonderful quote.
Great pick! I'll be looking forward to this review - Atwood is an amazing writer!
Nymeth - It does, it does! I can't wait to get started.
Sara - I was so annoyed when I got home and was trying to find my book. Ugh!
Adriana - Yes, I love it!
Bookalicious - She is. I can't get enough of her books!
The writing sounds beautiful; great teaser! I'll look forward to hearing your thoughts on this one. :D
Very nice teaser, Emidy. I have never read Margaret Atwood, but have heard a lot about her. I look forward to your review of this book!
Jenn - Don't you just love her way with words?
The Book Mole - You should pick up a book written by her. You'll probably find a new favourite author!
