Teaser Tuesdays


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!
PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT with either the link to your own Teaser Tuesdays post, or share your ‘teasers’ in a comment here (if you don’t have a blog). Thanks!
My teasers:
From Victor Hugo's Les Miserables (Yes, the unabridged version 'cause I'm just that awesome!)
"Yes, the brutalities of progress are called revolutions.  When they are over, this fact is recognized,--that the human race has been treated harshly, but that is has progressed."
and
"As she rocked her little ones, the mother hummed in a discordant voice a romance then celebrated:--
'It must be, said a warrior.'
Her song, and the contemplation of her daughters, prevented her hearing and seeing what was going on in the street."
