Teaser Tuesday (27)


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!



".. To listen to this woman say it, I don't even exist until I find a husband.  It's preposterous.  If I'm so unimportant, then what have I been doing these past five years?  How have I managed to keep this family together?  Not by twiddling my thumbs and hoping some kind of gentleman will deign to marry me!"
