Teaser Tuesday (3)

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 book this week is Water For Elephants by Sara Gruen.

"Sometimes I think that if I had to choose between an ear of corn or making love to a woman, I'd choose the corn.  Not that I wouldn't love to have a final roll in the hay - I am a many yet, and some things never die - but the thought of those sweet kernels bursting between my teeth sure sets my mouth to watering."
(p. 8)


I've just started this book, but the language and writing is incredible, can't wait to read more.
