On the Bookshelf

Surprise! I'm still alive and I've brought you a Teaser Tuesday on a Wednesday. (I'm sure it's still Tuesday somewhere in the world!) I've been rather tied up the past couple of weeks with work and more particularly family things and family always comes first. I should have time to to return to blogging now so how about a review of Tyger Tyger this afternoon too? But moving on...

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!

In recent years it's become increasingly evident that certain national diets are healthier than others. Compared with British or Americans, the French have less heart disease, Greek men live longer, Japanese women have less breast cancer and osteoporosis and the Japanese don't even have a word for hot flushes.
