Teaser Tuesday

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!
 My Teaser: "In many ways Joe felt closer to his sister-in-law than to his brother, respected her more, yet he and Gratton carried the same seed of whatever it was -- mud, blood, hardship. He wouldn't anoint his own childen with that legacy."

from The O'Briens by Peter Behrens

  2. Wow - that's an interesting teaser.
    What's that saying about not being able to choose your family but you can choose your friends?!

  3. It's a great read so far, although I'm only a couple hundred pages in to this 514 page book.
