Teaser Tuesday is a weekly bookish meme is hosted by Ambrosia from The Purple Booker.
1. Grab your current read
2. Open to a random page
3. 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!)
4. Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!
I discovered this weekly meme about a year ago (I remember it was at the beginning of January) and since then I have been participating almost every week… And for now I plan on doing the same, at least for a while!
I started listening to the audiobook for A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens last week, because I had never read this book, and it was free on Audible (it still is, if you’re interested, and I’m not sure for how long but go check it out if you want!). I didn’t really know what to expect, but so far I enjoy it. I read Great Expectations last year for college and didn’t really like it, but for now, I enjoy this one better. And it also keeps reminding me of the Doctor Who episode with Dickens… Anyway.
Genre: Classics
My quote:
“How can I not be cross when I’m forced to live in a world of fools?”
(And yes, I know you’re supposed to share two sentences, but it’s really impossible for me when it’s an audiobook!)
Have a nice day!
Wow, it’s been ages since I read A Christmas Carol. Good pick, though, and definitely a suitable read for this time of the year.
Here’s my teaser for the week.

Such a great story and been a long time since I read it. It would be fun to listen to it.

I don’t love a lot of Charles Dickens’ work, but I do love A Christmas Carol!

Everyone should hear A Christmas Carol. We had a 4 album set when I was little and we used to play them every Christmas. I don’t know who the reader was but it created such an atmosphere — we all loved it. Here’s my link for today: http://wp.me/p4DMf0-1ra

I read this again last month. The version I have is beautifully illustrated by Greg Hildebrandt, which adds to the enjoyment.
My Tuesday post features Letters From Paris.
