Teaser Tuesday is a weekly bookish meme hosted by Jenn of A Daily Rhythm. All you have to do is grab your current read, open to a random page, and share two teaser sentences (that don't give too much away).
This week's teaser:
An instant later, the captain's door burst open, but the pirates were too late. She tossed the pluming taper into the room and heard footsteps stumble, and men cough, before the drugged smoke brought them down. Two down, thought Lila, stepping over their bodies. Thirteen to go.
— A Gathering of Shadows by V.E. Schwab

ReplyDeleteYou don't often find women on the offensive in this type of situation. Go Lila! ;)
Here's my Teaser Tuesday.
Lila sounds like a strong character. I like that!
