Teasers & Top Tens – July 23, 2024

Teaser Tuesday is a weekly feature hosted by Ambrosia at The Purple Booker. Here are the rules if you want to play along:

  • 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!

This week’s teaser comes from The Stardust Grail by Yume Kitasei.

Then it was morning, and Medix was shaking her awake. She groaned. An Emerald night was too short for proper human sleep, and her whole body felt like it had been compressed into a tin can and then tumbled through space. Which is to say, terrible.

I think I’ve felt that way waking up sometimes. It’s not a great feeling.
