Teaser Tuesday

After Monday, inevitably, comes Tuesday (then Wed, Thur, Fri....and SATURDAY! I'm here for you, helping out as much as I can! *g*)

Miz B helps us celebrate Tuesdays by posting teasers of books we are currently reading....complete guidelines are at Should Be Reading.



I'm doing my usual waffling back and forth of a few books. I'm reading Jealousy, picked up Soulless (and put it back down temporarily), grabbed As Lie the Dead (and can't find it at the moment) and I'm also still reading (now and then) the anthology A Cup of Normal.







From Jealousy by Lili St.Crow (Young Adult)
page 52:


"if she was aiming for sarcasm, she was doing a pisspoor job of it. 'Yeah. Great to be here.' I didn't have to work to sound snide. 'I wonder who's going to try to kill me next.' "



From A Cup of Normal by Devon Monk (anthology)


page 186, from the story Moonlighting:

"This was a cheap, sparkly dress and strappy purple heels. He refused to take them. He would not wear them. He wouldn't be caught dead looking like a fairy tarted up on a twenty year bender."
NOTE - the above is about a pixie...

  1. Wonder what is going on in the second one, pixie or not!

  2. I love the Jealousy teaser just because I appreciate sarcasm!

    A cup of Normal by Devon Monk: Ok I had to read that twice for the "he" LOL. I would take the cheap sparkly dress and strappy purple heels either1

  3. ROFL I love that second teaser "A Fairy tarted up" I hadn't heard of that book before but it's definitely something to look into. Thanks for sharing :)

    The Bookish Snob - Shades of Desire by LM Pruitt
