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!

The Man Who Ate the 747 by Ben Sherwood, Chapter 1

So, what are you reading this week?

UPDATE:  This is from the beginning of the book-  “The world records in this books are real, as are the places where the story unfolds.  The rest is make-believe.”
