Teaser Tuesday (09.01.09)

teasertuesdays31Teaser 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!

Okay, here is my teaser.  I am currently reading the ARC** of Her Fearful Symmetry: A Novel by Audrey Niffenegger. Yummy!

Elspeth got up – or rather, she was suddenly walking out of the room without any intermediate motions of getting up. When Valentina followed her into the kitchen she vanished.  The Kitten mewed loudly and bumped against Valentina’s leg.

**note: as this is an advanced reader copy, these lines my be different or not included in the final copy**

    Elspeth is one of my favorite names (from a series of books by Mercedes Lackey) so it always cathes my attention. I want to know where she went. Great teaser and thanks for stopping by.

      I love the name also. I struck me right away and so far, very fitting for the character!

    Disappearances are always good for suspense, no? I want to know why/how/what the heck!? Great teaser!

    Ooh you lucky ducky! Can’t wait to get this one, I loved Time Travellers Wife. Are you enjoying it?

    I really want to read this one :) Great teaser this week! My teaser accompanies a giveaway on my blog this week.

    I’m not sure I want to read this right away. Time Traveler’s Wife was just alright to me. I’ll wait for some reviews first :)

    Suspensful! I wasn’t keen on TTW (great story, poor writing). How is this one going?

    Now that is an intriguing teaser! I’ve got this thing for older sounding names, Elspeth — love it!

    I liked Time Traveler but not as much as I was hoping. So far so good with this one – nice creepy house, a ghost and cemetery.

    I love that name!!! Names can play such an important part in a story and so far, most are so fitting in this book.

  12. cjz111 02. Sep, 2009 at 8:38 am #

    I want to know also! Just started this one so I am not sure of anything yet.

  13. cjz111 02. Sep, 2009 at 8:38 am #

    So far so good. I like Time Traveler but not as much as some. I think I may like this one better but we shall see!

    I visited, I read, I entered! Thanks!

  15. cjz111 02. Sep, 2009 at 8:51 am #

    I am enjoying it so far!

    I think that the reviews sometimes ruin books (and movies) for me. If the reviews are almost all glowing, I may expect too much. I am glad I get to read this one before the hoopla.
