I’ve been reading the Should Be Reading blog for quite some time. She has lots of fun features and I’ve decided to join in on this one. Here are the rules for Teaser Tuesday:
Grab the book you are currently reading.
Let the book fall open to a random page.
Share with us two (2) “teaser” sentences from that page, somewhere between lines 7 and 12
You also need to share the title of the book that you’re getting your “teaser” from … that way people can have some great book recommendations if they like the teaser you’ve given!
Here’s my teaser:
“Every laundromat’s a gambling parlor,” Alice says, making herself at home among the white-elephant appliances. “You drop your quarters in and hope maybe this time the spin cycle will work.”
This teaser is from Pigs In Heaven by Barbara Kingsolver, page 168.

Here’s my teaser!
That sounds funny!!
This is one of my favorite books. And The Bean Tree which actualy comes before this book. I love reading about Turtle and all the things that happen. I am going to have to pull it off the shelf again and read it all over.
LOL I love that qoute!!

One of my favorite books, too. Great teaser from it. Reminds me so well of why I love Barbara Kingsolver.
By the way, did you take the picture on your header? It is beautiful.
I’m so glad you joined in! What a funny teaser. I’ve thought the same thing before!
Welcome to Teaser Tuesdays! I love Barbara Kingsolver’s books, and this one is one of my favourites. Happy reading!
My teasers are here.
Well I liked that teaser so much I hopped over to Goodreads to check it out. I have read the Poisonwood Bible and enjoyed it very much. Now I have learned about The Bean Tree as a prequel to your Teaser. Now I have 2 new books on my To Read shelf! Thanks! Come visit mine if you have the time…
