It's Tuesday and that means a it's time for the teaser meme - hosted by Mizb17 at Should Be Reading
Guidelines:
1. Grab your current read
2. Let the book fall open to a random page
3. Share with us two “teaser” sentences from that page, somewhere between lines 7 and 12.
4. You also need to share the title of the book that you’re getting your “teaser” from … that way people can have some great book recommendations if they like the teaser you’ve given!
5. Do not share any spoilers!
This week's teaser is from a book that I'm reading for Barnes & Noble's First Look Book Club - Of Bees and Mist by Erick Setiawan:
"As the drizzle thickened into rain, they hustled past moldering huts and ramshackle tenements, past temples of abandoned gods and hotels tenanted by transient midnight souls. Eyes without bodies traked them from the depths of shadows, howling, laughing at every turn of the wind."
p.267
Review to come later this week!

That book looks very interesting!
Certainly an interesting teaser. Has me wondering what the book is about.
Sounds very intersting, what a picture painted by those words!
I just finished this one, my review will be up tomorrow. I loved the prose in the book once I started going with the flow!
Very nice. It almost reads like a poem.
Has a certain rhthym. Like the sound of that book.
Oooh, sounds interesting. Thanks for dropping by my Tuesday Teaser at GAhome2mom. :)
Not only did I love that teaser but I'm in love with that cover...sounds like this could be a great read!!
Great teaser! I am going to look this book up on Amazon.
I missed the deadline for the Book Club, I'm so bummed that I did since I really want to read this book. It looks really good.

I have given away a lot of books, but I have never signed up to win one. George Pelecanos is an outstanding writer. This is a book I can devour in one read! Put me on your list of contestants . . & I'll pray and pray and pray.
