Taste Testing Tuesdays (13)


Good morning (or whatever time it is where you are), everyone!
Welcome to another installment of Taste Testing Tuesdays!
Taste Testing Tuesdays was inspired by 'Teaser Tuesdays', a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading

On the menu this week is a quick sample from the book I've been devouring recently....it's a bit crass at times, but the story is VERY interesting...and right now the suspense is killing me (equates to must finish book very soon)!  Let's take a taste, shall we?
 
"And let me point out that The Hobbit's been around for a long time," said Angelo.  "The original owner was a Tolkien fan way before they started making these movies." -- pg 124, Aunt Dimity Down Under by Nancy Atherton (ARC)










Her sobs grew more and more violent, air catching in her throat, until they subsided altogether with heavy sighs. Slowly the sadness and desperation hardened and burned, like a cookie kept in the hearth for too long. -- pg 47, Dreams of Beauty by Aubrie Dionne (eBook)







~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

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 participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Until next time....happy reading!
