Teaser Tuesdays - The Night Circus

The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern


Opens at Nightfall
Closes at Dawn


"Another flourish, and the black silk folds and curves in on itself, becoming a black top hat. The woman places it on her head, topping off an ensemble that looks like a ball gown fashioned out of the night sky: black silk dotted with sparkling white crystals."






As I live in California, I can no longer be an Amazon affiliate, but you can go and read portions of the book to find out more about it.



 
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!

Teaser Tuesdays - Smash Cut



"Julie didn't remember the elevator's decent to the lobby, but she remembered those several minutes of sheer havoc after the doors opened and the people waiting for the elevator were exposed to the horror inside. Her bending over Paul, the blood forming a lake on the marble floor, and the distress of the other three passengers." 
- Smash Cut by Sandra Brown Page 57 Chapter 6

"No, mon cheri! You!" She brushed her fingers lightly against his cheek; then she pressed a note into his hand beneath the table, Her mouth against his ear, she whispered, "Something for you, Thomas."

It means, "Speak the way you eat," or, in my personal translation: "Say it like you eat it."  It's a reminder - when you're making a big deal out of explaining something, when you're searching for the right words- to keep your language as simple and direct as Roman food.
