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 TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!
My teaser comes from "The House on Fortune Street" by Margot Livesey, page 199.
"For all her many visits to Abigail's house, Dara ha never seen the ground floor flat. As she bicycled over, she pictured it as similar to the upstairs: light, beautifully proportioned, tastefully decorated."
Hmmm..the upstairs sounds like something out of House Beautiful and it makes you wonder if the downstairs flat is somewhat of a dungeon.
This is where I am in the book at the moment. It has been a slow read, started in November and will be the first on my Goodreads challenge list for 2016. It is picking up and I am anxious to see how all the pieces fit together because it is truly like a puzzle.

This is from Calico Bush by Rachel Field:
All the rest being busy also, she took this moment to draw from under the front of her dress of course gray holland a piece of cord from which hung two small objects. One of these was a plain gold ring, the same that Grand'mere had always worn, the other a button of gilt from Oncle Pierre's best blue coat. She had found it afterwards between two boards of the deck where it had rolled.
SUCH a good book!
Going to check it out! It sounds good!
Nice description. My teaser comes from The Bitter Season by Tami Hoag. Happy reading!
Sounds interesting. I'm curious about the downstairs flat too!
Congratulations on your new camera. I bought one a while back and there was definitely a learning curve. Hope you enjoy it!
