~Teaser Tuesday~

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! ;)



The September heat would waft up from the concrete sidewalks, the smoggy sky closed in from above. She'd ride as fast as she could for the first few blocks, hurtling the apple core into a corner storm drain as she sped through an intersection. ~ pg 76, Garden Of Dreams by Leslie Gould

Is It Monday Already?

I was so grateful for the time change this past weekend. I actually felt rested both Saturday and Sunday - I didn't have to take naps either day! This morning, however, I had to drag myself out of bed, and yawned the whole time I was in the shower. It must be something about Mondays.....

I have had terrible luck with books lately. Friday night I picked up four and tried to read them. I don't know if maybe I wasn't in a "reading mood" which would be strange...I am most always in the mood to read. Every book that I tried just didn't "grab" me. I put them all aside, and just went to sleep. Saturday evening I started another book...Bingo! This one has grabbed me successfully. The book is Garden Of Dreams by Leslie Gould. Has anyone else read this book? What did you think of it? I haven't gotten very far, but what I have read so far is great.

The story begins with a mother, Jill Rhone. She has been sick for awhile, and suspects that it is something more than just a virus. Her best friend, Caye, is helping care for Jill's children while Jill and her husband Rob are at the hospital. Jill has been keeping a secret from those that she loves most....including her best friend Caye.

I didn't receive any books in the mail last week, which is fine....I am in no danger of not having anything to read! :)

How was your weekend? Did you start any new books? What are you reading now and is it interesting/good?
