This week, my teaser is from a book that I bought called The Wonder Box. I'm a sucker for any sort of non-fiction book that covers a wide variety of topics. If it's well-written, it'll be something that I read over and over again.
Here's the teaser:
"Although human beings have searched for beauty in nature, an alternative has been to test themselves against it. This more confronting relationship with the natural world may be familiar to those who pursue extreme outdoor sports." (Page 212)
Teaser Tuesday is hosted by MizB of ShouldBeReading. To participate, just share two sentences of your current teaser, its title and author and voila!
What is your teaser this week?
Interesting teaser! This sounds like a cool book -- I've not heard of it before!
ReplyDeleteMy Teaser Tuesday post is from upcoming YA Urban Fantasy release, Fractured, by Karen E. Hoover.
I'm not into sports because of exactly that reason, the resistance against nature!

Nice and philosophical teaser, Eustacia. I must admit I don't wonder down to the non-fiction aisle these days unless it's for research or work related.

Very interesting teaser. I don't read much non fiction but I hope you enjoy. Here is my TT http://cynthiastacey.com/2014/06/17/teaser-tuesday-june-17/
ReplyDeleteSounds like this would be interesting to read little by little, but not something to escape into like a juicy novel. I hope you're enjoying it.
