Random Peeks Into Our Everyday Lives

Teaser Tuesdays #19

 
Teaser Tuesdays
 

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly book 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!

 

My Teaser:

The Nobodies Album by Carolyn Parkhurst

I take a look at the picture that all the papers are running, a shot taken a couple of months ago at an awards show. He’s wearing a bizarre velvet tuxedo, bottle green; it looks like it came from a thrift store, but it’s more likely that he paid some designer a ridiculous sum of money for it. His hair look tangled and dirty–though again, I’m sure he went to a great deal of trouble to get it that way–and his jaw is stubbly.

On a totally unrelated note I’m pleased to say that a few thundershowers have graced us with a morning that is just 75/81, compared to most of our recent mornings this is down right chilly. I can’t believe I’m saying this but here’s to hoping our 50% chance of thundershowers happens today.

    Great teaser! That could be said of so many celebrities seen on red carpets with expensive bed head hairstyles and odd ‘high fashion’ clothes. :)

    Does the guy turn out to be a bum after all? I could see it.

    We’ve got cloud cover to day, for which I’m grateful.

    Enjoy your book. I’m glad you’re having cooler weather. We’re having fog which is keeping summer cooler than usual. Mine’s from Devil to Pay, a book I wrote.

    An interesting teaser – makes you wodner about the character being described. Here’s wishing you more rain–we’ve had more than enough here! My teaser: Scandal Sheet
