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
catching up on things that have been biding their time on my TBR pile. This
week I am reading CROSSED, the second book in Ally Condie’s series. I loved the
first book MATCHED. It comes as no surprise to me that I am enjoying the beautifully
written prose.
In
Crossed, unlike everyone else, Cassia longs to be sent to the outer provinces.
She believes Ky, the boy she loves, was sent there. This book was written in
alternating points of view. Personally, I love knowing what is going on in the
male MC’s head too.
CROSSED

“The
silence stretches on as I look up and realise that even this limited bit of sky
holds more stars than I was ever able to catch sight of in the Borough. For
some reason, this gives me hope that there is much else I don’t see.”
I THINK THE STARS ARE A SOURCE OF ENDLESS HOPE. WHAT DO YOU THINK OF WHEN YOU LOOK AT A SKY FULL OF STARS?
