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! ;)
~Of course, there were plenty of other homely teenage girls in Port Arthur and they were largely ignored. Janis could have chosen to be inconspicuous, but she decided to fight what other girls accepted as fate.~ pg. 12 ~Scars of Sweet Paradise: The Life & Times of Janis Joplin
What's YOUR teaser today????
Enjoy reading it!
ReplyDeleteTeaser Tuesdays: Tintin and King Ottokar's Sceptre by Herge
Janis Joplin wow - that one seems interesting.
ReplyDeleteBTW - your new book acquisitions look great too. Half Broke Horses is great IMO.
Oh my gosh, is this a book about the life of Janis Joplin???? If it is I have to have it!
ReplyDeleteI love that attitude! :-) It's a shame Janis Joplin's life was troubled and short.
ReplyDeleteWell, I would say Janis was certainly successful in her fight against being inconspicuous! Too bad she couldn't fight the demons that took over later. She was a tremendous talent and I loved her spirit dearly.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the teaser...that is one woman that really made her place in this world in her own way.
ReplyDeleteI just loved Janis Joplin! What a tragedy. This is definitely going on the list. My teaser is from the Chocolate Snowman Murders and can be found here
ReplyDeleteFabulous teaser, great attitude. Sounds like a wonderful read. My TT: http://www.rundpinne.com/2010/01/teaser-tuesdays-corrigans-pool.html
ReplyDeleteLoved Janis. But she had such a sad story. Should be a good book - excellent teaser!
ReplyDeleteHere's mine.
I'd love to read a book about Janis Joplin! I hope you're enjoying it!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great teaser!!! I have a good friend who would love this book. She loves Janis Joplin and anything pertaining to that era. I am going to have to tell her about this title!
