Teaser Tueday (July 7)

Teaser Tuesday is hosted by Miz B from Should Be Reading.
The rules are as follows:

* 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!


"I'm glad that you approve. I daren't face the healthy person-for example, Freddy Honeychurch."
"Oh Freddy's a good sort, isn't he?"

"Admirable. The sort who has made England what she is."


pg. 105, A Room with a View by E. M. Forster


My first Forster book. I did not realize he had written some other famous books, such as Where Angels Fear To Tread and Howard's End. I may have to pick those up someday.

What are you teasing me with today?

  7. Great teaser! I've never read any Forster--utterly shameful as that is for an English Lit major to have to admit!

    Thanks so much for adding me to your blog list, by the way--that was really lovely of you!
