Taste Testing Tuesdays




Good morning (or whatever time it is where you are), everyone!
Welcome to another installment of Taste Testing Tuesdays here at Satisfaction for Insatiable Readers! 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 chunkster of a title that just so happens to be the second book in a trilogy I sampled last year.  Ready for a taste?  Here we go!



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



The Healing Crystal, Book 2:
Fall of Eden
by
Michele Poague


Hours later a steady drizzling rain obscured the morning sun, stretching out the dawn.  Running for one's life isn't the most pleasurable way to spend the day, and the cold rain made it all the more uncomfortable, their new blankets now heavy with moisture.
-- pg 161



Siede laughed.  He'd flustered her, and she was adorable.  He wanted to kiss her, but as he turned her head to face him he heard the unmistakable sound of horses coming up the hill.
-- pg 230



The first is right along the lines of what they are doing now (some 100 pages before this tease) but the SECOND is an unexpected exchange between Siede and...well, it doesn't say and I didn't peek but I can't say I'm not CURIOUS to know just who was on the receiving end of the laugh.  It's an interesting series that combines past, present, and future with a mix of cultures all adding up to one BIG adventure.  Stay tuned for the blog tour swinging through later this month!







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




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!
