Teaser Tuesday

hosted by MizB at Should Be Reading. To participate you:

* 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!


And here is my teaser:

"Elyse?" Matt Love, my ex-boyfriend, was staring directly at me. No, correction: Math Love, my ex-boyfriend, was staring directly at my Rudolphs. I froze, blinking at him like a reindeer in the headlights. Then I came to my senses and crossed my arms awkwardly over my chest." (From Rhymes with Cupid by Anna Humphrey)

I know it's more than two sentences but you needed the whole thing. Anyway, this is my breather book. I keep reading for reviews and lots of paranormal and I needed a break. So far this is cute fun read. I'm sure I will throw a review up when I'm done.

So - what do you think? Should Matt "Love" be the name of any boy in a book let alone an ex-boyfriend. It actually works but it is funny. Do things like that turn you off of a book? It can with me, but this one is okay. I really like Elyse. She isn't some silly love sick girl. She has a strong personality. I like that. Check out the book here.

Share your teaser or a link in the comments. Enjoy the read!

  4. This is from Roadside Assistance by Amy Clipston:
    Chapter 1.
    "He was clad in jeans and a white T-shirt, both covered in grease spots. Part of me wanted to join them in the garage and find out what was so funny."
