Miz B hosts this weekly event. The idea is to pick two sentences between lines 7 and 12 from a random page in the book you’re currently reading without giving away ‘spoilers’.
This week my teaser sentences are from page 169 of White Noise by Don DeLillo:
I thought of telling them about the computer tally, the time-factored death I carried in my chromosomes and blood. Self-pity oozed through my soul.

Sounds eery.

I’m currently reading Bel Canto by Ann Patchett but I left it in the car so I can’t do a teaser. Enjoy your reading!

Nise & Beth it’s really a rather alarming situation.
Margot & Mog this book was written the 1980s (published in 1984) – it’s not futuristic.
Sarala, leaving your book in the car is a real teaser!
Erika, I can’t really say I’m enjoying it too much. I’m finding some sections drag a lot. It’s supposed to be funny about a serious subject.
Bluestocking if I told you that, that would be a spoiler.
Lisa and Wendi, thank you. I did take the photo – it’s the view from the front of our house. The snow’s still here.
Betty, it’s an unknown time-factor, which is worrying for the character.
