Teaser Tuesday : 10 February 2009


Teaser Tuesdays hosted by Should Be Reading asks you to:
  • Grab your current read
  • 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!
  • Do NOT post anything that could spoil the plot of the book!
"It's funny how preconceptions of place can end up so drastically wrong. A Mediterranean island in February has little in common with all those glossy pictures you find in holiday brochures. Winters are bitterly cold, for a start, and the Aeolian Islands aren't called the Islands of the Wind for no reason"

  1. My interest is piqued! Are you liking it?

    Cold Comfort Farm is really hilarious. The bleakness described throughout is so tongue in cheek - it's hard to describe. But I am loving it and laughing out loud a lot!

  4. I am really enjoying this book so far. But I will not comment either way as I am not even a third of the way through (only picked it up Monday for my read before bed book). But its been quite promising.

  5. Sounds good - is this a library book that I can read before it goes back?

    I have just picked up one on Argentina - a woman going to learn horse riding with the Argentinian cowboys.
