Teaser Tuesday

I hope everyone is having a great week so far. If the blog looks a little different today, it's because I was debating changing the look a bit and while I was messing with that idea, I lost the original. Spent quite a few hours getting back to this close. Hopefully the rest of the week goes better. So here it is: Teaser Tuesday!

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. 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! 

I am involved in two books, at present so I thought I'd share a teaser from each. Work for you? Ok, first up is 'A Crowded Marriage' by Catherine Alliott:

From page 125: "How rude, I thought as we went outside to the car; how very rude of me indeed, but actually, this was all about self-preservation. Last night had shown me just how easily I could become a fly in a web, how easy it would be to be manipulated."

And from 'Effigy' by Alissa York:

From page 31: "The skulls have taken hours. She's proceeded in order of descending size - adult male down through female runt - scooping out brains, severing optic nerves, prying eyeballs out whole."

That should give you something to think about for the rest of the day. Take care!
