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!
“George is a drunk,” Sanders said. “Every day that he works, he stops at the liquor store and picks up a fifth and he takes it home and drinks it. He’s trying to drink himself to death. He did that last night. He was in no shape to ambush anybody.”
“Any particular reason he’s doing that?” Virgil asked.
“Not as far as I know. I think he’s tired of being here,” Sanders said.

John Sandford is a favorite of mine and this is his latest. So, what are you reading today?
Sounds like a good mystery or detective story? You have me guessing.
I adore John Sanford’s books. My teaser is here: http://rundpinne.blogspot.com/2009/10/swiss-courier-teaser-tuesdays.html
Sounds like pretty rough country. Here’s My Teaser
Phew! Teaser Tuesdays keep on adding to my TBR pile!

Makes me wonder what’s driving him to drink!
Sad teaser as it describes my grandfather’s behavior for years.
Poor George. Sounds like a good book, though. Haven’t read any John Sandford yet, but I’ve got him on my TBR list.
So can’t wait until you write your thoughts of this one!! I’m so close to giving up on Sanford!!!
This is a Virgil book and I like it, but have a few problems. Only halfway through.
Drink himself to death? That’s not good…
I really love John Sanford. I met him at a book signing a few years ago and was very impressed. Good teaser!
I’ve got a football teaser this week – and a giveaway!
Today I was talking to a librarian and she was telling me how she couldn’t wait to start the Lucas series. I told her I only read the first one and what I remembered of it. She got all excited and that translated into encouragement for me to get to the second one. I’m going to begin it tonight. 🙂 Are you up-to-date in the Lucas series?
I have read them all in order and love the series. There have been some I’ve loved less, but it is a good series.
Well that completely sucks! Good teaser.
