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...one book that wasn't anywhere on my radar until I was physically putting it on the shelf on its book birthday and thought...huh, now this looks interesting...and a second book that I've working my way through somewhat slowly but most enjoyably.
Ready for a taste?
Here goes...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I'm leaving town for two days and left the window to the right of my front door unlocked. I can't think of anything stupider.
-- pg 13, The Ten, Make That Nine, Habits of Very Organized People. Make That Ten. the tweets of Steve Martin
Hmm...I bet I can! ~shakes head~
Author's name look familiar? It should. *gives moment for recognition* Yes, that's right my friends. The comic/author/musician (let's just sum him up as a man that wears MANY hats, and rather well too) has struck publishing gold again with this latest release. It's a book of punny-ness you have to see to believe...and of course, I'm following him now...how could I not! You can too, just click the link above. Review coming soon...
There are three kinds of hauntings. The first kind is residual - when a supernatural entity repeats the same act over and over again. The second kind is intelligent - when an entity is aware of its actions and can interact with the living. The third kind is poltergeist activity - when an entity moves objects in the physical world.
In Cranston, Rhode Island, we encountered claims of all three.
- pg 152, Ghost Files by Jason Hawes and Grant Wilson
Now see this was a perfect passage to happen upon for today's tease. It gives you a break down plus a little something to look forward to....and believe me, there's a lot to look forward to in this one. For fans of the show...or not....this has been an enjoyable read so far. So many experiences out there and I love their approach to the situations.

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!
