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 and author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!
I’ve spoken before about why I’m still reading this book and I didn’t want to miss Teaser Tuesday so I’m giving you another taste. I’m hoping I’ll find the time to finish it and move onto the next book before next Tuesday.
In the pungent pre-dawn dair they trotted through the streets of Bielsk onto the road to Bransk, past a necklace of villages lip up by lanterns that could be glimpsed through windows and doorways as peasants prepared for another day of harvest. The wagon would come to a halt in the town square of Bransk, where the market was teeming with early buyers hurrying between stalls to take their pick of the best vegetables.
I don’t think I’d read something like this but it was an interesting teaser. Thanks 🙂

I never thought I would either and I’m not certain I would have picked it up if I hadn’t heard Arnold Zable speak. It’s certainly challenging me.
I love markets, and I like the way the lanterns are described. It sounds like the rest of the day is going to be hectic! Great teaser.
My teaser is from The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams.
Yep, that’s exactly why I chose that bit.
This book is packed full of imagery.
