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 and author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!

From page 268-269 of Graceling by Kristin Cashore. I just finished this book. Look for my review on Thursday!

Good teaser! I've been told I need to read Graceling, but I haven't gotten around to picking it up yet!

Great teaser! I have this book and the sequel in my huge TBR pile and I can't wait to get around to it!
I like your teaser. I've seen so many good reviews of Graceling, so an interesting teaser helps convince me that it's worth a read :)
Oh, this is one I've been wanting to read. :)
Bored_D I have to admit that I cheated in picking this teaser. While reading Graceling I had bookmarked a page or two ahead of this quote thinking that a line would make a good teaser but then flipped back and chose this one when I actually sat down and made the post.
