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!
Head on over to MizB’s to share your teasers and to check out what others are teasing about.
Holy smokes, I am able to actually get into my blog. It has been a few days and I was getting a little irritated. Very timely that it would be on a Teaser Tuesday. I am currently reading These Old Shoes by Georgette Heyer. I have just discovered Ms. Heyer’s books and am becoming a fan so far.
‘Then – I’ll try,’ said Leonie, a heartbroken catch in her voice. ‘You won’t l-leave me with y-your sister for l-long, will you?’
‘Only until I can find someone to take care of you. Then you shall go to my house in the country, and learn to curtsy, to flirt with your fan, to simper, to have the vapours -’
‘I – won’t!’
What is your tease this week?
This sounds sad, yet hopeful…
My teaser:

A lovely teaser. Isn’t Georgette Heyer wonderful?!
Haha “the vapours,” so old fashioned. Here’s my teaser.
I really need to read some Heyer. This sound so fantastic!
Here’s my Teaser.
I’ve always wanted the chance to have the vapours. I can’t imagine my husband (or boss) putting up with it though!
Thanks for visiting today!
I haven’t read this. I must add it to my TBR list. Here is my Teaser for this week.
Funny! I know of Heyer from my time working in a bookstore, but I’ve never read her. Sounds like I should do something about that!
I’ve never read Georgette Heyer, but perhaps now’s the time. The teaser is intriguing. Thanks for coming by my blog!
So many authors I haven’t heard of or read. I’m pretty sure there is a 2010 reading challenge for that
Thanks for stopping by!
Love the teaser…I haven’t read anything by Heyer yet, but obviously I need to.
I’m sad to say that I have not read anything by this author. Glad u r enjoying this book.
I am not much of a Heyer fan!

I’ve heard a lot about Heyer lately and I’d really like to try one of her books.
Thanks for stopping by!
…to have the vapours… I love it! That’s a good tease. I don’t think I’ve read this author before so I’ll have to check her books out.
Good teaser. I haven’t read anything by Heyer yet, but I keep meaning to.
Haha. nice teaser!
Hee hee. That one made me laugh. Still haven’t tried Heyer, but I do have one on my shelf. It looks like I’ll enjoy her, simpering and all
I am very glad to have been born into a generation where I’m not expected to learn to simper.
Just popping by to say Happy Holidays! And that I have an award for you
Sounds very interesting.I’ll have to check her books out.
Great teaser!
