Teaser Tuesday October 1, 2013

Hunter and the turtle.  Who is teasing who?

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. 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!

I am posting on a day that is very sad for me.  My youngest cat died yesterday.  We don't know what he had just that nothing helped.  That is his picture on the post.  After today I will remove it.  It made me very sad when I saw it today.  He will be missed.

My Teaser is From Ancillary Justice by Ann Leckie published by Orbit.  Ancillary Justice is Science Fiction and today is the release day.  I am about 17% on my Kindle.  

Ancillary Justice"I had no reason to think badly of her.  On the contrary, her manners were those of an educated well-bred person of good family.  Not toward me of course---I wasn't a person, I was a piece of equipment, a part of the ship."

This came as the not a person was rescuing the person who had been beaten and left out in the snow.  She was acting like a person so it has really caught my attention.

Awww.....I'm so sorry about your cat! It really is hard to lose our pets.

I like your teaser. Makes me want to know more about this 'talking' part of the ship.

Here's my teaser!

I'm terribly sorry about your cat! A pet feels like another family member. I hope you feel better soon.

Thanks for sharing your teaser even in such a sad day. In case you're interested, here is my teaser.

So sad about your cat...you will think of him and remember your times together and that will help. Not much just yet, though.

I like your teaser...now I'm curious!

Here's MY TUESDAY MEMES POST

I am so sorry for your loss. Big, big hugs to you. I lost my youngest cat in July (and my dog in May) and am still heartbroken over their deaths. So, I know how much it hurts to lose a loved one, especially a furry one. My thoughts are with you. And if you need to talk, don't hesitate to write.

Losing a cat friend is awful, so sorry. Best wishes to you.

Ancillary Justice looks interesting, definetly a teaser that makes you want to know more.
