Teaser Tuesdays - Zoo City


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!

As the car pulls away into the night, D'Nice separates from the group across the road and saunters over, swinging an empty lengolongola. His Vervet Monkey hugs his neck for balance.

Interesting... it makes me wonder what a velvet monkey is, and why it's hugging D'Nice's neck. Good teaser!

If you'd like, you can check out my teaser here.

Looks like this one is full of words I don't know.

You haven't read JR Ward yet? Do! You'll love her.

I'm so intrigued by this one for quite some time now. It's not my usual genre so I'm a bit reluctant. So can't wait to see what you think.

You are so to say my guinea pig. (<== couldn't resist that one ;) LOL)
