Teaser Tuesdaysis 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!
“You killed Bobby and now you’re trying to take Sara so that I’ll have nothing left, nothing to live for. You won’t be satisfied until then, will you?”
Smart Women by Judy Blume, Chapter 20
Before anyone asks, this is an old book, 1983,
So, what are you reading today?


I recently checked out Wifey on GoodReads and a lot of people said they preferred this book to that one, in terms of Blume’s books written for adults.
That’s a nice teaser from an old book! I’m currently reading City of Bones by Michael Connelly. 🙂
I don’t think I’ve read this one!! Great teaser and it makes me want to get this book!!
This sounds interesting. Nothing wrong with an old book. My post is up.
Judy Blume’s books are timeless….I read this one a long time ago and loved it. Good teaser!
I only read Summer Sisters by Blume. Didn’t like it.
Here is my post
I didn’t care for Summer Sisters either.
I thought it must be knew since I didn’t recognize it, looks good!
Sounds like someone is very conflicted with this teaser. Thanks for sharing it! I have not yet read anything by Blume.
I remember my girls loving Judy Blume’s books but I never read any of her adult books. I hope you are going to do a review and then I’ll go on your recommendation.
I read allo f her books growing up, but this is only my second of her adult books.
I’ve read some Judy Blume and liked them although not this one. Good teaser!
It’s funny, I don’t like any of the characters, but I can’t stop myself from reading!
I thought I read every Judy Blume book out there! How did I miss this one?
I had no idea she wrote for adults as well. Learn something new every Teaser Tuesday!
I hope the speaker is able to fight back! I just picked up a couple of mysteries – one by Dana Stabenow and the other by J.A. Jance. But I’m supposed to be reading Midnight’s Children by Rushdie.
I haven’t read any Blume — good teaser.
I didn’t know she wrote for adults either. My daughters used to like Blume. I might have to look into these.
Have a great week and happy reading. My teaser is here
I read this one years ago.
I have never heard the author Judy Blume, but I’m looking forward to read your review.
I’m currently reading Shadow of the wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafón and listening to The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins.
I remember when (Yes I really did just say that)Judy Blume was considered controversial and many schools (in Oz) tried to ban her books from the library. Didnt want to give us kiddies any ideas.
