Hi Everyone. My name is Laura and I’m blogging from sunny England! I started Books, Writing Tea nearly a year ago to talk about books and have absolutely loved every minute of blogging! My favourite genre is fantasy – I cannot get enough of it!
My aim is to read three books this week! These books have been on my TBR pile for FAR too long and I need to get cracking on them!
Scarlet by Marissa Meyer
Days of Blood and Starlight by Laini Taylor
A Monster Calls by Patrick Ness
This teaser tidbit challenge is all about sharing (2) “teaser” sentences from a current or recent read to try to entice others to add it to their TBR list!
Step up to the challenge! It’s easy! Post your challenge then click on others to check out theirs, you may find another book for your TBR list!
- Grab the book you’re currently reading (or recently read)
- Open to a random page
- Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page NO spoilers allowed! Choose passages void of spoilers. The goal is to entice, yet not ruin the book for others!
My teaser tidbit is from Scarlet by Marissa Meyer
‘”Come on darling,” he murmured, squeezing his eyes shut as, without resistance, without wavering, the ship left the protective magnetic field of the city behind, drew on the full power of her thrusters, and speared through the wispy clouds that lingered in the morning sky.’
Awesome premise for choosing your books! I love that idea. 🙂 I just met Patrick Ness this past weekend–he is so funny and amazing speaker. I need to bump his books up higher on my TBR list. 🙂 Thanks for participating!
Happy Reading!

Wow – that’s so cool, I am very jealous! 🙂 No problem – its a great idea! 🙂
Hey Laura! I’m also gonna be finishing A Monster Calls too, I’ve been taking far too long to read it! Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on it too when you’re finished 🙂
Oooh yay we can read it together! 🙂
Those books look interesting. I’ve been meaning to read them, but I have yet to get copies.
I’m reading Scarlet too! I’m looking forward to it. 🙂
Here are the other books I’ll be reading: http://readingismytreasure.blogspot.com/2013/06/summer-lovin-readathon-day-one-class.html .
Ooh yay – good choice!
Hey Laura! Scarlet has been on my list for a while! I adored the first book in the series, I’m hoping to read Days of Blood and Starlight very soon! I hope you have fun with the rest of the read-a-thon!
Thank you! I am so excited to read Days of Blood and Starlight!
Oh yes, Scarlet! ❤ I finished Cinder and I'm now looking for Scarlet because I loved the first book so much. 🙂 Best of luck with your goals and happy reading!
Thank you – I am LOVING Scarlett so far
