Teaser Tuesdays - the Scent of Shadows


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!


I poured another glass to the rim. One thing was certain: whatever I was going to do, I wasn't doing it sober.
(page 184, The Scent of Shadows, the First Sign of the Zodiac by Vicki Pettersson)

This one is in my TBR!
What really caught my eye was the Diana Gabaldon quote on the cover.
Hmmmm... interested to see what you think of this one.

Well, based on the cover I am not sure I would be wanting to be drunk and facing that evil guy. Great teaser.

Sometimes that's the best way to do something unpleasant - not that I'd know anything about it :)
Great teaser!
Thanks for visiting mine!!

I like that sentiment...difficult tasks MUST include something to drink!

Here's mine:

Oh boy. Knowing the kind of books you read, doing something that requires a drink must be totally whacked.

I love finding teasers from books I've read in the past. Now I just have to match the puzzle pieces in my head to figure out what is going on!

Thanks for the tease ~ Miranda
