Teaser Tuesdays

Published on by Margaret

The rules are:

  • Grab your current read.
  • Let the book fall open to a random page.
  • Share with us two (2) ‘œteaser’ sentences from that page, somewhere between lines 7 and 12.
  • You also need to share the title of the book that you’™re getting your ‘œteaser‘ from ‘¦ that way people can have some great book recommendations if they like the teaser you’™ve given!
  • Please avoid spoilers!

    • Today’s teaser comes from Dear Dodie: the Life of Dodie Smith by Valerie Grove.

    ‘Just listen to the glorious silence,’ said Alec. ‘We are always happiest,’ wrote Dodie, to be on our own.’ (page 175)

    It is 1947 and Dodie and her husband Alec are living in America. She has nearly finished writing I Capture the Castle and Dodie’s friend Phyllis who had been staying, distracting Dodie from her writing, has just left.

    2. I love glorious silence too!

      I’ve got a blog tour going. And the author is answering questions. On did I mention I was giving away an autographed copy of the book.

    3. I often feel the same way as Dodie felt. I love the quietness of my home – especially after having visitors. :) I enjoyed your teaser.

    7. Interesting teaser. Sounds like Dodie might have had some issues, or was she really content on her own? Maybe I should read to find out :)
