Teaser Tuesday

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!

Tuesday is probably one of my favorite days because, well it's not Monday, and it's not close enough to Friday that you look at the clock every 37 seconds because you're itchin' to get out. So happy Tuesday everyone!

Right now I'm reading World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War as recommended. Different from the books I usually read, but that doesn't mean it's not just as good. Let's just say I went out of my comfort zone on this one, expanding my perimeter. 

Here's my teaser:



"And then they came, right out of the smoke like a freakin' little kid's nightmare! Some were steaming, some were even still burning...some were walking, some crawling, some just dragging themselves along on their torn bellies...maybe one in twenty was still able to move, which left...shit...a couple thousand? And behind them, mixing with their ranks and pushing steadily toward us, the remaining million that the air strike hadn't even touched!"






Hehe, kinda creepy huh? I just finished Amanda Hocking's Hollowland, was snooping around for my next obsession, and my cousin recommended this one. I definitely don't regret taking him up on his advice :)

Happy Reading Everyone :)
