Should Be Reading is the super awesome host of this weekly meme.
Rules:
~ 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 selection is from The Devlin Diary by Christi Phillips.
"hannah holds up each medicine as she gives instructions for its use. 'This tincture and this powder must be mixed in with the beer-three drops and two grains to every pint. the mademoiselle will need more blankets and fresh linens every few hours."
and
" her father once told her that she should never underestimate what people will do for love or for money, especially at court. she stands and takes a moment to prepare herself before she goes in search of lord arlington and madame severin, to tell them that the king's favorite mistress has the clap."
Oh that second part made me laugh! Thanks for the teasers.
