Teaser Tuesdays-Captivity


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 (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
  • BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
  • Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!

Here is mine:

The truth is harder to see and serve these days, so she’s thankful for her eccentric employer (dare she say friend?). Clara Gill is a beacon of blunt truth but unreliable as solace goes, given her temperament.”

~Page 118 , Captivity by Deborah Noyes (This is an Advanced Reader’s Copy, so the page number may be different in the final published book)

  36. Lori says:

    Very cool teaser. The truth is harder to see, especially when there is being so little of it done. ;) I hope that you enjoy your book. Here's mine.

  37. Calico Crazy says:

    Intriguing teaser, I'm curious enough to check this one out. My teaser is up at Calico Contemplations.

  38. Lisa says:

    Interesting – I don't think I've heard of this book.

    My teaser is here.

  39. Becky says:

    I have never heard of that book, but I will look forward to the review

  40. Phyl says:

    I really like that teaser, a lot. First, I love the author's description of the person; it brings her absolutely to life. But I also like the idea of her being what I call a "prickly personality." You get good support and a lot of truth from such a person, but need to be prepared to grit your teeth and be irritated sometimes. But it's always worth it.

    Anyway, thanks for the teaser. My own is at Bookishgal.

  41. Book ♥ Soulmates says:
