So instead, I'm sharing a book that I found on Scribd and read a few pages of in the train. It's the latest book by Guy Browning, and considering that I loved his previous two books (I love his sense of humour!), I'm super excited about the fact that he's writing more of this!
So, from How to Be Normal:
"One of the reasons Americans can seem overly jolly is because they all have good teeth and don't mind displaying them. British teeth have been rotten for centuries and, as a smile was often like lifting a drain cover, we developed a stiff upper lip instead."
I don't know about you, but I chuckled at this teaser (The column is called "How to Smile")
What is your teaser?
Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of A Daily Rhythm. 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!
Funny! It sounds like I would like the humor in this one. My teaser this week comes from the latest in a science fiction series I adore - Dragon in Exile by Sharon Lee and Steve Miller. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteThe cover tells me that the book is going to be funny, even before I read your Teaser! This sounds like a delightful book.

Hahaha this is the impression I had of the British as well before I moved here but a lot of them are very willing to smile once they know you ;) The cover is definitely great, those birds are adorable! Thanks for sharing :) I hope you have a great week and that I see you at ABEA!
