Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading.
Anyone can play along with Teaser Tuesdays! 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!
My teaser for today is from The Marriage Plot by Pulitzer Prize-Winning author Jeffrey Eugenides.

I think I got lucky with my copy as they’d only just put it on the ‘new release’ shelf that morning. Nothing like a brand new, never been read before library book!
As I’ve been enjoying it so much, I think I can definitely say ‘it’s worth waiting for’ :)

Maybe that can be my 5 month self harm free present! I almost bought it as my 4 month but bought another one instead. I’ve read The Virgin Suicides and Middlesex so The Marriage Plot should be just as awesome!

She grabs his ears (ouch!) and then says, “I love you.” What a teaser! I wonder what the guy is thinking.
My teaser is from A STOP IN THE PARK.
