Teasers & Top Tens – November 12, 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 is from Torment by Lauren Kate.

Rushing them through the labyrinth of the dark casino, Arriane moved as if she had night vision.

“Stay cool, you three,” she sang. “I’ll have you out of here in a flash.

The second book in the Fallen series is going good so far. Definitely thickening the plot!

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature hosted by Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s topic is:

These can be either real places or fictional ones (let’s be honest – most of mine are going to be fictional). Here are some of my favorites.

  1. The Annihilation of Foreverland by Tony Bertauski.
  2. The Coldest Girl in Coldtown by Holly Black
  3. The City of Ember by Jeanne DuPrau
  4. Demon Lord of Karanda by David Eddings
